    3. Richard I can't recollect one instance where Barrie wasn't able to resolve a problem of this nature. I honestly can't see why you have to spend time worrying about what you call inappropriate messages being received on upload. You have identified what appears to be a bug in the upload routine which Barrie will need to look at and resolve before presumably moving the process from "warning" to "error" . In the meantime it looks as if you have no difficulty in uploading the files other than receiving the warning message so I would suggest you ignore the message unless advised to the contrary by Barrie. I'm rather surprised (perhaps I'm chancing the question) why Coordinators have not been deluged by their volunteers asking why they are receiving the "You do not appear..." message when uploading their files. Most certainly I have not received even one notification of this problem from any of the volunteers in my Syndicates.

Howell Sent: Wednesday, July 21, 2010 5:38 PM Subject: Checking transcriptions (again) I return to my message of Monday 19th July at 10.59 h. I have now myself fallen victim to the new rule instituted by our Quality Control Assurance Co-ordinator. I have just now taken over File Management for SubmitterID gemqueen, a retired member of my Syndicate (joined October 2007), and - following a request by Kevin Howell - corrected a file uploaded by her on 23rd December 2007. On pressing the Send button to upload the corrected file I am faced with a message reading: __________________________________________________________________________________________________________ a.. You do not appear to be a member of a syndicate transcribing this quarter. Please check you have the correct Year, Quarter and Event or contact your syndicate coordinator. (Help) The content of file 1918D4W0195 has been replaced. However, please check the above warnings and amend the file if necessary (click on the Help link if you need further information about any of the warnings). ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Not only was my Syndicate assigned Quarters June, September and December of 1918 Deaths, and not only am I a member of the Syndicate concerned...... I was, and am, the Co-ordinator! Something has gone wrong with the system if I have to spend time worrying about inappropriate messages received on upload, of which this is the second instance this week.
