The site has changed somewhat since I last entered it. Actually, I found the new format somewhat confusing, got lost along the way. I noticed Asterley was mentioned and thought that Ian Plimmer might be interested and sought to pursue that query for his benefit, but when I tried I got no-where. You might try to follow that up, though, Ian. You might have better success. Still and all, it is a good facility, but I think the website manager needs to get his/her act together and smarten things up to make it easier for folks to access individual compartments. For instance, all you get when accessing individual records is: Showing record 13 of 531. <http://193.132.103.55//dserve.exe?&dsqIni=Dserve.ini&dsqApp=Archive&dsqCmd=Show.tcl&dsqDb=Catalog&dsqSearch=((text)='pontesbury')&dsqPos=0>First <http://193.132.103.55//dserve.exe?&dsqIni=Dserve.ini&dsqApp=Archive&dsqCmd=Show.tcl&dsqDb=Catalog&dsqSearch=((text)='pontesbury')&dsqPos=11>< Prev Record: <http://193.132.103.55//dserve.exe?&dsqIni=Dserve.ini&dsqApp=Archive&dsqCmd=Overview.tcl&dsqSearch=((text)='pontesbury')&dsqDb=Catalog&dsqPos=0>13 of 531 <http://193.132.103.55//dserve.exe?&dsqIni=Dserve.ini&dsqApp=Archive&dsqCmd=Show.tcl&dsqDb=Catalog&dsqSearch=((text)='pontesbury')&dsqPos=13>Next > <http://193.132.103.55//dserve.exe?&dsqIni=Dserve.ini&dsqApp=Archive&dsqCmd=Show.tcl&dsqDb=Catalog&dsqSearch=((text)='pontesbury')&dsqPos=530>Last But the record does not come up! Nothing! And I am on Broadband, so!!! And the same thing occurred when I hit NEXT, nothing but as the above appeared. Oh well, better luck another day. But really, thanks to Jo for putting this in front of our noses. I shall come back in a week or so and have another look. Cheers Hope everyone has a lovely, peaceful, pleasant and re-envigorating Easter. I plan to. Graham Melbourne Oz
