Can people please, please, please, please put NAMES, DATES & LOCATIONS in subject lines and CHANGE SUBJECT LINES when starting a new topic. Try following a thread in the archives with headings like "Have I been bumped" and "Surnames I am interested in". And they'll still be there in 100 years time. If using the Reply or Reply All buttons, get in the habit of checking if the subject line is appropriate. Good technique means more effective searching. Peter in Sydney
