I have tried to help people with their enquiries by giving related web pages by pasting them here. However, each time I try the complete link isn't given and it's driving me mad!! Why when you try to past a website address does it not appear in the message??? Anyone else had the same problem?

Hi Elizabeth, we are not allowed to advertise any other website. I think that if you put brackets around the dot or whatever it will show up, Joan

GR will not permit address's with d o t c o or c o m in them, therefore either replace . or bracket the . BEFORE the c o or com.

Hi everyone - thanks for letting me know - all I have been doing is trying to help people with their research. I always paste because then you don't make a mistake. From now on I shall be using brackets!
