I've spot checked a few of mine and all have their classifications. HOWEVER, I discovered something else almighty weird: 1st, I always access the boards thru RootsWeb and, upon adoption, I clean up the entire board - so the link to every message on every board I admin should be *black* as a visited link. On the first board I spot checked every link is BLUE. As was the next board I went to. But the 3rd board I checked, the links were BLACK. I am now going thru board by board checking to see which ones are blue so I can ask helpdesk. Strange, huh? Jackie At 05:55 AM 11/17/2006, you wrote: >These are all regular Surname boards.
