As a long time Reunion user, I beg to differ. You can have as many note fields as necessary =C2=AD each with room for 64,000 characters (just short of twenty pages per!) Methinks, one can enter as much data as you have and then some. Regards, Arnold <><><><><><><><><><><> Arrowhead Images <[email protected]> <><><><><><><><><><><> Uh oh.

That is your privilege. However, you will probably find that most other people researching the surname will be reluctant to "donate" their research data to another person for what could be their personal gain. One thing about a company like Ancestry/RootsWeb that attracts contributors and posters on their lists is that the data they post there doesn't belong to the list "administrator" or the company--the AUP assures us all of that. The data you post to a RootsWeb mailing list remains the property of the author/poster who is merely giving permission for the company to house and archive the data for future researchers to find.

thank you all I will get reunion later today I am having trouble with aol imap on the mac can receive but not send nor find out how to edit smtp port data "mail" seems poor and MS Office teachers was a good buy on amazon.co.uk 100 for 3 licenses but that version of Outlook doesn't send either in WinXp MS OE keeps on trucking with imap usenet I use news international server and I have set that up in Mozilla suite on the mac remember when it used to take 2 to 4 hours to ftp netscape for the mac from a university site :-) no so many minutes with broadband those were the days when the tele company rebooted their server at 6;00 am 10 minutes before the download was finiahed - and NO resume my telephone bill was astronomical Hugh W -- new computer = new blog http://mac-on-intel.blogspot.com/ daily blogs with new photos http://snaps2006.blogspot.com/ http://slim2005.blogspot.com/ family history http://hughw36.blogspot.com Hugh Watkins <[email protected]>

Secondly, I told RootsWeb are not allowing new lists at the moment. And finally, I am always very wary about any organization/site which Ancestry has its fingers in. Besides, it has been fun (and a real learning experience) to set the list up and get it working. -- Bob. Ye Old One <[email protected]>

Have you thought of starting one at Rootsweb.com? It is free and 11 of them work OK for me. Love, Light, Rainbows and Blessings Sandra Tyler Duncan [email protected]

However, the BRENCHLEY RootsWeb/ Ancestry board located here: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec?htx=board&r=rw&p=surnames.brenchley ...could be gatewayed to a RootsWeb mailing list if one were requested/created (but note there is a temporary moratorium on the creation of new RootsWeb lists until the lists are migrated to new software--lists may currently be requested but won't be created for the time being) and if the admins of the message board and mailing list would agree to gatewaying.

I'm currently running it on my G4 PowerBook running OS 10.4.7. They have versions that will run on earlier operating systems as well.

I use it with OS 10.4 on my Powerbook but the current Reunion version (8) works with OS 8.5 and up. Recently I demonstrated Reunion to someone who used some other computer. He was so impressed that he has now bought a Mac so he can run Reunion. Carol B. Carol Botteron <[email protected]>
