Re: [LegacyUG] Printing a Photograph From Photo Album

Thomas, If you don't have a scanner, consider your mobile phone camera. You can probably get a good "scan" with that. There are apps that help the process of scanning with a phone or you can just take a picture. Cathy Jenny M Benson Wednesday, 3 June 2020 8:23

Odd. Worked perfectly for me. All I had to do to get the data I wanted was to sort by column B. See attached for a screenshot. Gary On Wed, Jun 3, 2020 at 9:18 AM Roberta Schwalm wrote: > I tried using Excel as suggested by Brian Kelly (and others previously) > but it didn't work for me

Cathy – I don’t download the image or PDF from either Trove or Papers Past – though I used to, about 4 years ago. My text files contain transcriptions that are usually for one individual or for others in the family. I find the text files, apart from being very much smaller than image or PDF,
