G'day from Perth, Carl (& then very shortly afterwards Susan) responded with some helpful tips which I've now been able to put into use having just discovered a 7 generation ancestral line where most of the family did all of their events in only about 5 places.
The what to do tips have been very useful and saved me a lot of typing! Regarding what "not to do" I've still to come to terms with that so I can easily "repeat" without the facility not working. But if I concentrate on what to do that will be great.
