I also find that when I eventually reach the top, I haven't!! There are still supposed to be some further back. I am obviously doing something wrong.

Member Since: May 2003 Posts: 34 Send Message	Thanks. Can you "find" a name in order to go straight to it?

Member Since: May 2003 Posts: 34 Send Message	Many thanks. I did not realise that applied to the tree you were in. I assumed it meant the whole site.
