Is he a member of Genes, Margaret? If so, send him to this thread and have him click on the link here. It certainly works.

The link opens fine for me.

When you sent the e-mail with the URL did you have any other characters written after the URL. Even if you just had a fullstop (period) after the URL it wouldn't open.

Researching:
Ash, Bassett, Godwin, Elsley, Jackson, Webster, Gisbey, Arnold, Bowles, Vockenson

It opens o.k. for me Margaret so he shouldn't have a problem unless he is trying to type it all out instead of copying and pasting and he's missed something out.

What sort of 'link'?

If it's a URL, there should be no problem, unless the site is defunct
