Alert - Check the Alert box if you want an "Account Alert" message displayed on the Information Bar on the Subscribers Form whenever this record is viewed.  

This Alert message is particularly useful if the Account needs follow up, is receiving special care, or a special resolution process is underway, or in other ways - needs to be recognized as needing the Comments information viewed by you (or whomever might also view this record) before communicating with the Subscriber.

 

Find - Open the Comments Form's Rich Text Editor and locate the Find Icon to find a particular word or phrase anywhere within the Comments field.

So, use the Find function to quickly locate a specific entry (see below).
