When you are creating backups of your genealogy database, consider using our dear old Rootsweb Worldconnect. 1) You can always download it if your data is lost from your computer; 2) It is free for anyone to see; 3) You can control it, update it, and remove it as you wish. I have had my database on Worldconnect for six years now and have no complaints. http://helpdesk.rootsweb.com/FAQ/wcindex.html Elizabeth W Knowlton
