Sorry, Deb, none of that made any sense to me....I still don't know what is so exciting about Miracode.... According to "Unpuzzling Your Past - A Basic Guide to Genealogy" by Emily Anne Croom, Miracode "gives family visitation number instead of page number but uses the same coding system as Soundex." I don't know about the other questions. :) Hope this helps. -Deb _________________________________________________________________ Get your FREE download of MSN Explorer at http://explorer.msn.com
