Absolutely correct. And I would add that the program should be able import MULTIPLE html files simultaneously.

ActionOutline does not have ANY import capabilities. Adios AO.

Agree that UltraRecall and Zoot look like possibilities, but I really would like an app customized for researching and writing a complex book.

In playing with Scrivener for Windows, it does have the capability to import multiple html files from Evernote simultaneously. The more I learn about this program the more it looks like the solution I need. Really appreciate your help in getting me pointed in the right direction.
