Setting Up A Trademark Watch (cont'd)

We are now ready to fill out the Alert form. We see that the file number (File 226) and the search strategy (select ow=kirkbi?) were automatically inserted into the Alert form.

Alerts set up

We are now ready to fill out the the rest of the Alert template with the following information:

  1. We enter the Alert name of up to six characters and the Alert description. Note that a subaccount number can be inserted if you want the Alert billed to a particular account.
  2. We choose the output type: ASCII text or HTML format.
  3. We also have the option of making copies of the retrieval to be redistributed at our company or achiving records in an internal database using Dialog's copyright compliance service (ERA). Learn More
  4. We identify the address to which to send the Alert. Click the Address Book to create an address or view addresses listed in our Address Book. Addresses may be e-mail or postal delivery.
