Alternatively, as soon as you open your GC tree a list of the other trees you can access will appear. You then just click... and start climbing. The only trouble is, I find the GC trees (especially the large ones) quite hard to navigate, my own included. Have just tried searching a tree that was released to me, but can't find the person I was looking for anywhere - and he must be there as it was him that casued me to contact that contact in the first place!!

Try clicking the other button to list relations. You will then get a full alphabetical list of all names in the other persons tree, then just click on the button to go to the tree. They are not marked, but hover the mouse over and a description will appear

Ah! Thanks for that Carol. It's easy when you know how, isn't it? I don't think I've ever looked at my Home page before... usually too busy checking for Tips!

I hope you could follow my instructions OK. I do tend to waffle, and type as I think. I know what I mean, and just assume everyone else does. I would never make a teacher, no matter how much I know about something, I would find it difficult to teach someone else.
