Hi Walt, Whatever you just did worked. Your message made it through to the list with no problem. Now I can't say that the lookup volunteers have the resources to answer your query but I can ask you to keep trying. Give it a few days and post it again. One more thing, please write to me privately if you need further assistance. These e-mails shouldn't be sent to the list. Thanks, Admin In a message dated 10/25/2003 12:29:15 PM Eastern Daylight Time, [email protected] writes: Hi Admin., I never get a response to a census lookup (most MA 1900 thru 1930). I use a standard Word docu. format that includes all the rules. One time I tried a second request and still received no response. Please what am I doing wrong ? Thanks much - sincerely , Walt-NJ-USA
