You may combine queries or selected results you have previously saved.

Important: The queries/results you combine must be the same type. For example, you cannot combine a reaction result set with a reference or substance result set, only with another reaction result set.

To combine saved items:

  1. Click the Combine button. Note: The button will only be active if there are combine-eligible saved items.
