Once you have run a search in the Profile Selector, you have a number of options for working with these profiles (besides simply opening them in the Profile Browser) by right-clicking in the datagrid. The right-click menu contains the following options:

1. Select All: This will select all the profiles in the datagrid.
2. Remove Seleted Profile(s): Removes the selected profiles from the current dataset in the datagrid.

5. Email Selected Profiles And Any Related Profiles Set To Receive Communication: Places the selected profiles and all profiles related to those profiles that are marked to receive communication.
6. Email Any Selected Individuals And The Main Profiles Of Any Selected Organizations: If the dataset of profiles includes both individual and organization records, this option will e-mail any of the individuals in the list and for the organizations, it will e-mail the main profile(main contact) of the organization. This ensures that the communication goes to individuals and not blind mailboxes.
7. Email Any Selected Individuals And All Related Profiles Of Any Organizations That Receive Communication: What a mouthful! This is the same as above, however this e-mails all the individuals related to the organization that have the Receive Communications setting checked on the Related Profile Tab.
