Dolores Kinsey I found the answer to that at the Rootsweb URL http://lists.rootsweb.com/index/other/Miscellaneous/NEWGEN.html which states as follows: NEWGEN-L Topic: created to assist those who are quite new to genealogy. The list offers how-to's for everything from selecting software for your recordkeeping to figuring out why your computer is misbehaving. For the really new genealogist, a Mentor will be assigned to help you, not only on the list but also in finding your way to the many excellent sources on the Internet. ~~~~~~~~<>~~~~~~~~~ Woody
