Mike Flannigan was able to solve his problem with access to my Rome article, and several of you have written to report that you were successful using different computers and browsers. At the present time, I only know of one person who is still locked out. Mike's solution gave me a clue that I wasn't giving you all a complete link, and some browsers might not be going to the intended default. If you're not able to get to the site, then try this more complete link - http://www.staff.smsu.edu/j/jab885t/index.htm. One respondent pointed out that the file is large, and if you're on a slower modem, you'll need to be patient for it to load. If it doesn't work, please write me again but be sure to tell me whether you can't get to the site or whether you can't download the file once you get to that site. I have high hopes for distribution of resources using .pdf files, and I need to become more experienced with it and understand all problems. Some day, I'll try to get such materials over to RootsWeb. I've been behind, and I'm just now starting to review other county sites on RootsWeb to see the types of content contained on them that might not be on the Douglas County site. Last night, I started with the "A's" and took a look at the Adair and Audrain counties. My gosh, Debbie Linton, what did you get me into? Those coordinators up there have these fabulous sites! Well, Rome wasn't built in a day (pun intended). The Ozark Uncle Kenneth Brown, Ph.d., CPA Emeritus (Retired) Professor, Springfield, MO Email1: ozarkuncle@sbcglobal.net Email2: kwb237f@smsu.edu
