Filling on one or more of the boxes in Create Profile will create a custom news profile which you can use every time you sign on to Kyodo World Service. You can use either key words or phrases you choose or select from one of the "Category" profiles we've already created. Once you're finished give your profile a name in the box at the bottom and click Create Profile. You'll see this name on the left every time you sign on. Several profiles can be kept this way. To access them, just click on the name. If you want to modify a profile, click on its name and make the desired changes in the Edit Profile window. To delete a profile, open it and then click Delete at the bottom of the frame.

Since the available file extends back seven years you will find it useful to use the "From/ To" function to bracket the time period you're interested in.
