MetaProducts Inquiry Overview

MetaProducts Inquiry helps you to collect, organize and view the information you find on the Internet. It is fully integrated with Microsoft Internet Explorer and also available as a standalone application.

Inquiry stores various Web files: entire web pages, selected text and images, Shockwave Flash clips and many others. It can also import documents from your MSIE Favorites and export them to various formats to share with friends and colleagues. Forget cumbersome open and close dialog boxes. Managing your stored pages is quick and easy.

You access Inquiry simply by clicking a button on the MS Internet Explorer toolbar or Inquiry Sidebar. A single click saves the page you are currently browsing, or your selected text or images. You can choose to display or hide the Inquiry Sidebar by selecting the Internet Explorer Toolbars menu entry from the View menu and then selecting Inquiry Bar.

Besides that you can drag-and-drop a selection of a Web page to either save the selection or to store all pages linked to the selection.

Inquiry stores pages much faster than the regular Internet Explorer Save As feature.

Inquiry allows you to quickly search in all collected pages and displays the search results in a separate tree folder, allowing you to view them later. It is also easy to organize your stored items as you wish, divide them by theme and purpose, sort in the order you need using drag & drop or using standard ordering methods.

Information stored in Inquiry never expires or disappears. Even if the Web site stops responding or the contents change, you will be able to browse the pages just as they were stored originally.

You can also save web sites for offline browsing with the help of the AutoSave mode - when it is enabled, all pages you browse will be automatically stored in a special folder in Inquiry.

Using Inquiry you can email stored pages with a couple of clicks. It is easy to convert a page into a convenient format, such as HTML Help file or MHT Archive (to reduce the file size,) Microsoft Word or to a small executable file that includes a compact IE-based browsing application.

Inquiry is sophisticated enough to meet the needs of professional researchers, yet simple enough for novice users. Researchers, lawyers, writers, scholars, professors, students or just the casual shopper will all find Inquiry just the tool they need to collect, store and manage any type of Internet information.

Inquiry eliminates the concern that information on the Internet today will be gone tomorrow – it puts control of the Internet files in your hands.
