    1. Oblique stroke in district name

    3. Hi The batch I am currently transcribing has a handwritten correction, perfectly clear but with the district name given as W/Chapel 1c. WinBMD won't let me enter the oblique stroke. Any ideas? Thanks Veronica Elleson

    3. A solution that we have used is to transcribe it as ' W.Chapel,1c ' , upload the file and then edit it on-line in your File Management web page to ' W/Chapel,1c '. Someone else may know of a better solution of course.
