Hi NLR, Thank you for your question (below). This is a mailing list and not a database -- so the data is in a "free" format. This has advantages -- and disadvatages (it cannot be sorted by various citeria). However, all postings are archived -- any you can look up the archives using these links: Browse postings (by month): http://archiver.rootsweb.com/th/index/GEN-EVENTS/ Search (within a given year): http://listsearches.rootsweb.com/cgi-bin/listsearch.pl?list=GEN-EVENTS FYI - The help for the sub/unsub commands is here: http://lists.rootsweb.com/index/other/Miscellaneous/GEN-EVENTS.html Best wishes, -- Charles Wardell (GEN-EVENTS-L Admin) A-2073 Schrattenthal 3 Tel/Fax: +43-2946-8325 ----- Original Message ----- From: [email protected] To: [email protected] Sent: Friday, February 28, 2003 7:35 AM Subject: Question Dear ?, Do you think it would be possible to list the events in alphabetic order by state/country? So doing would make it much easier to locate events in our home areas or areas in which we are doing research. Thank you, NLR
