For each Volume, every file was opened and perused and the contents noted in an Excel spreadsheet along with the number of pages, the original CIA file number, and a separate, easy to use file number which runs sequentially throughout the entire seven Volume archive. Each file was also set up with a hyperlink so that the file will open when the user sees a file of interest and clicks on the link.
Why is it called Interactive?
Each user of the Star Gate Interactive Archive can modify the content field to facilitate future searches, note documents of interest, etc. This feature makes working with the archives a personal experience and greatly enhances the functional use of the massive quantity of data included.
How do I use it?
For fastest access, load the CDs onto your computer. Open the Excel document (aka “Excel Workbook”) corresponding to any of the seven volumes. You will see four fields for each file – sequential file number, original CIA file number, number of pages, and content of the file. Scroll through each sheet (several sheets are contained within each Volume’s Excel Workbook and are separated by tabs at the bottom of each sheet), reading the content lines. When you find a file you wish to read, simply click the highlighted field and the document will open. After reading a file, you can modify the content line to make it easier to find that particular document again. You can also take note of the number of pages to get an idea of whether the file contains a book, a paper, or a memo if the content line doesn’t specify exactly which it is.
Searching the contents from within Excel is easy. Using the Find command, enter any keyword and Excel will return the results of files with that keyword in the Content field. Be sure to set your find command to find “within workbook” rather than find “within sheet.” There are several “sheets” within each “workbook” (Volume) and each sheet corresponds to a file set as released on “The Central Intelligence Agency’s Star Gate Collection Archives.” Excel defaults to “find within sheet” and you want to “find within workbook” to search the entire volume. You may also want to add your own key words to the content field to facilitate future searches. Please note that each of the seven volumes have unique indexes (Excel Workbooks), so seven separate searches are required to search the entire archive.
Another feature of the Interactive Archives is the simplified file numbering system. As released by the government, the file numbers were cumbersome. Using a simplified, sequential numbering system, people can now discuss specific files in common, easy to use language. “Hey, file 166 is a paper by Viktor Adamenko from the former U.S.S.R on Biological Electrodynamics and Psychoenergetics! He delivered it at the First Congress of Psychotronic Research in Prague” is a whole lot easier than referencing file CIA_RDP96_00787R000500090005.
A search on Adamenko, psychoenergetics, or psychotronic would bring up this file initially and then it is fairly easy to remember that the file is number 166 once it has been found. It’s even easier to tell someone else which file you’re excited about so they can look at it as well. They would know that file 166 would be found on Volume A and go directly to it. If desired, they could even modify the content field of their CD set with “file Joe mentioned” or any other wording of significance to them. Former military remote viewers could modify the content field with “my session on target so and so,’ then use the Find command later to search for “my session,” bringing up a list of all of the files so noted and share those file numbers with others who have their own version of the Interactive Archive.
