are settings to do what I am not aware of. (What does month separation do/work?)<br>

Hi Joanna,<br>
<br>
You can keep on working with 1.4.6, though I would suggest at some point<br>
moving on to 1.5.3, which has a number of added features.<br>
<br>
One thing I think you're looking for is the Outline. Find it under<br>
Windows > Outline. It will show you all the content of the document in<br>
an outline fashion, including the various layers. What's more, if you<br>
click an item in the outine, it's selected (and you will move to its<br>
layer if needed).<br>
<br>
As far as groups, if you select a single object which might be a group,<br>
look in the menu under Item > Grouping. If it is a group, you should see<br>
that the Ungroup choice is black, i.e., not greyed out, and therefore<br>
clickable. You have to have more than one object selected to be able to<br>
see the Group choice in black.<br>
