One way, possibly, to get around the OCD issue is to come up with a combination of letters and numbers for the User ID that distinguishes one main line from another. Don't ask me what. I don't want to have to think that hard.
Meantime, it could be your lucky day. I just published a video on the MRIN Filing System which also includes a fair bit of talk about the use of the User ID's in this system. http://www.jgen.ws/jlog/video/mrin-filing-system/ You can easily earn the purchase price ($2) back by referring it to others. But, only if you like it. ;) --- JL Beeken JLog - simple computer technology for genealogists http://www.jgen.ws/jlog/ On 9/1/2012 12:34 PM, Marg Strong wrote: > Jenny, it's just the OCD in me.
