Maybe I misunderstood. When she said everyone from Thomas to William I thought she meant in lineage not alphabetically.

Dave - The following search will give you the desired results:

You're best bet here is to Tag the records/people you want to export and
then Export the Tagged people to a new file.  You can then, work with the
new exported file to create whatever you want.

1.    I would start by finding all Springer's by going to "Search", "Find"
and select "Detailed Search Tab".
2.    Look for Whom:     Individual
       Where to Look:      Surname
        How to Look:        Equal To
        What to Look for:  Springer     ---->  This selects only Springer's
Check the Second Condition Box, plus check "And" condition
       Look for Whom:     Individual
       Where to Look:      Given names
        How to Look:        Wild Card
        What to Look for:  [T-W]*    ----> This selects all 1st names
beginning with T to W.

Then hit the Create List button -- This will tag all of the Springer's.
3.    You will then have the list of Springers whose first names begins with
a T thru W (Thomas to William)
4.    Tag everyone in this list and then untag any that you don't want --
you will have some extra people that you do not want, e.g., Ted Springer
5.    Then I would get out of the search mode and do a File Export those
with Tag 1.

Good luck.
