No, you are using the "wrong" version of TMG. Lee was speaking of v4.0.
When you select the Renumber option under the Person menu, then you are
presented with a choice of All People or One Person -- the default. Click
on the TO field in this screen. The Search appears on the mmenu bar.
Remember that the menu bar changes in TMG depending on which screen you're in.

Hope this helps,
Allen
