Accordance Bible Software comes with a sample User Notes file. This example assumes you are using the sample User Notes. User Notes can be quickly found in the My Notes category of the Library.

Within a Text module, a single page icon () appears beside every verse to which a note is attached, such as Genesis 2:4, 15, and 18. A two-page icon appears (), if there is more than one note attached to the verse via different User Notes files.
