This *must* be a good idea because I was going to suggest a change of
colour to the scroll bar also!

Funnily enough, it was because of Geoff's big bright red arrow pointing

I agree with you about the fact that scroll bars are everywhere. It
appears to me that about 80% to 90%
of the hidden information in a window with scroll bars is for
information only. The rest require data
entry in the hidden area of the windows. An indicator to the effect that

Since you are willing to admit you are not perfect, you only need to
write the statement I must be more perfect 14 times - and it doesn't

My reason for date accessed is so I know how long ago I accessed the
site, whether it is still at the same URL or not. It gives me an idea
of how experienced I was at the time. As I am teaching my children how
to do research, I also include who added the info.

The Date Accessed field is actually in the Source Detail screen. You may be
confusing this with the Publish Date, which is in the master source. The
publish date should be the date when the database was published.
I actually used to split my census sources at the city level, but am now
Hi Geoff, now I'm a little confused. On the Master Source Definition
tab for a census, I see a publish date field and I see a recorded
date field down at the botton of the screen in the gray part.
I see that when I type something in the publish date field, it shows
