    2. If only the professional edition has Access that explains why so many of us don't have it in our versions. Thanks, Lisa

    3. Hi Again, I am inquiring now about perhaps trying to convert this ACESS into Adobe ?? It was first in Alpha-4 a DOS program, the way the hired compiler gave it to us,.. and told us we'd have to buy the program to read it?? Anyway I did have it finally put in ACCESS that at that time I didn't even know I had on my computer. I wrote David S. privately and asked if he know how to do this?? I do have Adobe on my computer also.. (free version) but not sure if yuo can do a spread sheet with it?? I have to look into it..And Lisa any help Jay can give me would be appreciated. As I mentioned before this project has a been a nighmare from Day-1. But hopefully soon it will be in a salable format and edited as best as possible by Kay Holmes and myself. This input is very helpful and I appreciate it. You are not only helping me but also the Mendon Historical Society. :) We have a bundle invested in this project, and as Lisa mentioned, be nice to get a few bucks back..But it is also a much needed tool for anyone researching the in Mendon. I'll do my best about getting it into a format more acceptable for the general public. The name taking is just to see if there is a market for this work and IF it's worth continuing trying to edit it and etc. If there is NOT a market for it, we will just stay as we are and place book copies (unedited) in the Mendon Historical Museum, Library and Town Hall.. and chalk it up to a bad idea, and investment. :( However as Committee Chairman of this Mendon Cemetery Project, I feel the project can be salvaged. At what cost to my sanity?? Who knows? :) Thanks All, any help or suggestions greatly appreciated. Alice
