Hello again Sara, Apparently the new version of AOL is having small conflicts with older versions as well as Rootsweb, judging by what you are saying. AOL will probably correct these problems, even if immediately before upgrading again. In the meantime, I'll continue sending the URL to help everyone suffering this small inconvenience. Thanks for letting us know what you have found about this problem, and Thanks for being part of the ROOTWALKER family. Sincerely, Stan Magnesen ROOTWALKER site/list coordinator ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ In a message dated 4/22/01 9:52:55 AM Pacific Daylight Time, Kena159@aol.com writes: > Subj: Re: [ROOTWALKER] AOL Hyperlinks > Date: 4/22/01 9:52:55 AM Pacific Daylight Time > From: Kena159@aol.com > Reply-to: TN-ROOTWALKER-L@rootsweb.com > To: TN-ROOTWALKER-L@rootsweb.com > > In a message dated 04/22/01 7:51:17 AM Central Daylight Time, > Yelowstone@aol.com writes: > > < was aware that this is the case, though.
