Thanks for all your replies and ideas. Seems to vary depending on which programme you use although I have been using chrome. Have managed to get on finally but not consistent.

Expand the Derivative copy Click on Table of Contents which will show Image 1 in the right hand panel and a PDF logo in the right hand pane with Image 1 underneath.

Have been unable to open any war files for last 2 hours. Allan From: Allan Steel Sent: Tuesday, April 15, 2014 5:20 PM To: nz list Subject: National Library site Hi Folks, Just wondering if it me or are other shaving problems with National Library site these days. Appears they have too many items available for searching but lack the capacity to handle the volume of enquires. I have had problems day and night getting consistent access to read WW1 military files. Sometimes the file opens after long delays then won’t open individual pages etc. Thanks Allan The List Guidelines http://new-zealand-l.blogspot.com/ ------------------------------- To unsubscribe from the list, please send an email to NEW-ZEALAND-request@rootsweb.com with the word 'unsubscribe' without the quotes in the subject and the body of the message ----- No virus found in this message.
