Hi Anne You have to buy the CDs for the other countries: There are sets of CDs for North America, British Isles, Australia, and the most recent introduction was a set for Europe. See: http://www.lds.org.uk/genealogy/software.htm for details of LDS CDs available, price and where and how to order in the UK.

Hi Anne Further to my last it has been kindly drawn to my attention that I should have added that the LDS say at: http://www.familysearch.org/Eng/Home/News/frameset_news.asp that all the VRI CDs will eventually be put on-line. Regret I don't know how long "eventually" is though ;-) For the odd look-up there are several list members who probably wouldn't mind delving into their sets of CDs, but they are very patchy for some counties eg Somerset, Devon and Gloucester, whereas for Dorset they are superb value! But by contrast the IGI for Dorset is very patchy!
