Their answer was due to the large numbers of unidexed microfilms, that I would have to either provide them with the exact date of arrival or narrow it down to within one week, in order for them to search. Of course, this was a few years ago. They may have changed their requirements since then. I would also be interested to hear their answer! Take care, Tracy
