Only real complaint I've had about the Temple ordinance section so far is that there's a family on the cusp of being open for relatives to do with & without permission (Part of the kids are old enough, part are not). Since the younger ones show up when I tried to print FORS, and I don't know about living relatives in all instances, I can't do them and won't right now until they get a "little older". But I can't print the rest of the family without them coming along. I got a canned answer from Tech support, but can't get the system to do anything else when I only want to take care of the ones who've been here (& gone) for over 110 years right now. Otherwise, the system has worked well for me to clear names and get things printed out. I do know that a frustration in the office at the Temple is that so far, if I clear names, but don't print them the same day, when I go in to print them, they won't all print on the same sheet all the time. On rare occasions, they do. I told the Sister at the Temple that I do try to get them to print on the same sheet, because I know that's easier for them, and less paperwork for me, but it doesn't always work for me to do it that way. But hey, it is much more efficient than having to send them off to Salt Lake and wait for them to come back. Most of the time I love it. And if anybody can figure out to do with the family above to clear the ones that are eligible without bringing the closer ones along, let me know. Karen In a message dated 6/5/2009 7:39:57 A.M.

Karen, When you reserve the names but do not ask for the FOR to be printed that day, all of them should print on the same FOR up to 50, I believe. You might try printing them out of FS FamilyTree instead of NFS. I really think that the Temple Reservations and FOR printouts go much more smoothly from FS FamilyTree. It might work to only print off the ones you want in FS FamilyTree instead of NFS also. I was able to print off my Dad's FOR without his brothers going along. Now trying to get his brothers back off the Reserved List is another matter. My understanding is that they are aware of this problem and plan to fix it in FS FamilyTree sometime before the Millennium. My husband who is not a member and I were talking this AM about the Millennium and all the records being available. He wondered why we couldn't just wait until then and have all the needed records to complete the project. I told him that I believed it has to do with the welding link between this world and the next or the earth would be wasted before his coming. I also believe that it is our privilege and responsibility to serve our ancestors by completing their work just because it is part of Heavenly Father's plan. I work in office at the Columbus Temple and when I first started printing off names in NFS, I could not seem to get them all to print on the same sheet either. We just to the best we can and I am sure the Lord understands.
