Kat I commiserate. This happens quite a bit, probably because people don't understand how the boards work. nell |

bumping this up in hopes that those who ask for the same thing on two threads might read this and realise just how frustrating it is. The last 3 I've done today are also on another thread. Thanks Kat |

And the trouble is there is so little difference between tips and records boards...... the grey line is becoming more and more blurred, imho. |

no probs Christine, I think some people just aren't aware how frustrating this is. I do remember doing this myself when I first started on here so you aren't alone LOL!! Kat |

perhaps if the people who do look-ups are reading this, they could ignore requests posted on this board in future? (a bit tongue in cheek LOL) |

No, i wont ignore anyone! sorry if someone feels more commfortable posting on here , rather than records , then so be it, i am happy to answer their request. If Howebvre i spot a multi request i do either point this out to the poster on the thread and that it is NOt a good idea , or point it out in such a way that researcher do not duplicate the look up There is a fine line between tips and records and if tips was simply tips, the board would hardly ever move. jess |
