Is there a part search box anywhere in MLCad?
It would be useful to search on part of the description as well as the number
without creating a custom part tree group.

There isn't, but there's a way to work around it.  If you drag any random part
into the display panes, you can right-click on it and select Modify.  This will
bring up a list of parts in alphabetical order (not numerical order, so 410 will
come after 4010, not before).  It'd still be nice to get a part search
capability, though, since this method only allows you to search by part number,
not partial description.

Can I make this a feature request then?

This program is SOOOO addictive :)
I'm just trying to model a Garratt locomotive from:

Thanks again.
