   4                 There is a quick and easy way of attaching synonyms to a taxon record:
   5         </p>
   6         <p>
   7 1. In the <strong>Taxon Navigator</strong> panel, double-click the taxon to which you want to attach a synonym; this will open the record in the                <strong>Taxon Name </strong>panel if it is not already open (see <strong>Activating Taxon Records</strong> on page 25 for more information).
   8         </p>
   9         <p>
  10                 2. Click in the <strong>Taxon Name</strong> panel to the right of any text already entered.
  11         </p>
  12         <p>
  13                 3. Press <strong>Return </strong>on the keyboard.
  14         </p>
  15         <p>
  16                 Another text box will appear in the <strong>Taxon Name </strong>panel, below that of the root taxon/accepted name for which you are entering a synonym.
  17                 You will notice the standard taxonomic synonym indicator (=) at the left hand side of the new text box within a green circle:
  18         </p>
  19         <p>
  20                 <img src="../img/7_1a.jpg"/>
  21         </p>
  22         <p>
  23                 If the synonym text box was opened in error, point the mouse arrow into the synonym text box and click the right mouse button; a drop-down menu will
  24                 open &gt; click on the <strong>Delete </strong>option:
  25         </p>
  26         <p>
  27                 <img src="../img/7_1b.jpg"/>
  28         </p>
  29         <p>
  30                 4. Enter the name of the synonym.
  31         </p>
  32         <p>
  33                 5. Save the synonym (see <strong>Saving Synonyms</strong> below).
