Very helpful, and again thanks for all the work on this and sending it to all of us. Jan S - Orlando, FL -------Original Message------- From: [email protected] Date: 8/25/2010 10:58:16 PM To: [email protected] Subject: [LAORLEAN] Roll Call Clarification It seems that we need some clarification about what Roll Call is. The members of the list have given me a set of names that they are researching. One of the documents that I provided to you early Wednesday morning was a list of the names that each person was researching and the researcher's name and email address, in email address order. Each person being researched by that researcher was on one line of the document. That document started off as an Excel Spreadsheet. I then took the document, and sorted it on the first column. That means that everyone in the group researching a certain name will have that name drawn together with all of the other researchers, pulling the email addresses together. The point is to inform you of who else is interested in the surnames that you are researching. Since not everyone is able to deal with Microsoft Excel, and almost everyone is capable of dealing with PDF files, I converted my outcome to PDF files. (Craig, are you my exception to that rule?) Since the LAORLEAN List cannot take on attachments, I took the list of email addresses from the document, and split it in half, and sent the two documents to each name on the list. Also, I sent an email to the LAORLEAN List with the list of email addresses that I had sent to. Thus, if your address what not on that list, you need to tell me what your old email address was, and I will change the document. If you were not on the old document, I'll need to get your list of names being researched. Is this being helpful yet? Get back to me with questions if you have them.
