In Civilization IV, is there a way to view all of your units?

I am struggling to find all of the units I have made.In Civilization IV, is there a way to view all of your units?
Hit the military advisor button (looks like a shield). This will tell you about all of units. If you want to find specific kinds of units, (like maybe you sent a caravel off to explore the world and now you want to find it) click on the Caravels item in the military advisor screen. This will make the world map blink with the location of every caravel you currently own. You can then click on the blinking dot on the map to go there and find the unit.



If you then want to find a different kind of unit (say all of your pikemen) you just click on Pikeman on the military advisor screen and the map will blink with all of the pikemen. However, you need to remember to click the caravels (on the military advisor screen) again to turn off the blinking caravels on the map.



By the way, if you want to keep track of a specific unit, you can click on that unit (on the map, not in the advisor screen) and then hit CTRL-{a number from 0-9]. So, if I have a highly promoted Knight that I want to be able to find at any time, I can hit Ctrl-5 when it is selected. Then, later in the game when I want to call that unit to the front, all I need to do is hit the 5 button, and that unit will automatically become active, no matter where it was or what it was doing.
