> In the index file

And just to be 100% clear, I have a bunch of systems — each of which has a `PRO` identifier — whose index is all in Bear, all thrown in there together. Each index entry is a note. There are many hundreds.

This is why Bear’s hierarchical tags, and the simplicity of the `PRO.AC.ID` notation, is nice. To find/show all BIGCO-DOF notes I can either filter by searching for `BICGO-DOF.`, or just click the top-level tag in the sidebar.

(Also `BIGCO-DOF` is how I obfuscated this example, actually I use a letter and two numbers as outlined [here](https://forum.johnnydecimal.com/t/alternate-project-naming-idea/542). `L43` in this case, which you may be able to figure out if you’re a spy. 😉 )
