When I access my disc | now, the message is "a read only file, nothing added will be saved". So | basically what I have is a great back up to the information I have now. What | I wanted was to be able to remove all of the info from the computer and use | CD's only. Is this possible? | | I am using Family Treemaker, and it has been good, but the information that | I have on all the famillies is getting extensive. | | I am thinking that if I had another type of record keeping I would be able to | add it to the CD. Is that possible? | | Thank you for any help on this process, I would greatly appreciate any | advice. | | Jacqueline | jacroing67@aol.com | | | ==== OREGON Mailing List ==== | Welcome to the OREGON LIST | To Search the OREGON-L or leave the lists use this link to the Oregon-L | web site http://lists.rootsweb.com/index/usa/OR/misc.html | | ============================== | To join Ancestry.com and access our 1.2 billion online genealogy records, go to: | http://www.ancestry.com/rd/redir.asp?targetid=571&sourceid=1237 | |
