Hi All, In reply to Walter's Qestion... I own 4 lists and am a member of several others.. And they are all slow with little or no postings over the last several weeks.. I kow that they are all working as I get the postings I subit to them. I have found that I myself of late need "more week at the end of the day" to get everything done. This last two weeks I have been contacted by two new family members and have found that they tie to the family from two lines in four states.. It may be some time before I get it worked out but it did add about 8,150 new names to my database.. <VBG> The real work is keeping the names stright.. -------------------------------------- Thanks & have a nice day, Howard E.
