Thank you ladies and lost cousin. Got a bit confused with the messaging stuff too. Been away too long I expect. So many changes its doing my head in and I've got a new laptop with no mouse this machine scares me. But I shall conquer! Kathy

Sylvia I do the same as you - totally agree about the new tree system - I update my tree on my FTM now. Angela

there is still a search facility on the new system. at the top it says search your tree. which should read search this tree.

I have the same problem Kathleen. What I tend to do is, go to my tree, then click on Old Tree at the top. My old tree comes up - then I click on Shared Trees and then on the name that I want and their tree comes up in the old tree style. Hope that helps. (can't stand this new system).

Why is it that when i go to a shared tree and go to the full tree it tells me there are 804 entries but it only pulls up 130 that I can study? I've tried the pull down menu with the new view of immediate family, ancsters, decendants and all that but it still stays with the 130. What am I not doing? Why can't I do the dearch this tree for a particular name anymore? Kathy Wh didn't this turn up on the board? doh!
