Dick, I think it is also worth mentioning here that one of the driving forces in developing the Tiny Tafel was to implement a very structured data base that could compare TTs and provide a report on matches. The Tafel Matching System was developed to do this. There are a number of Bulletin Boards around the country that have the TMS installed. I think that when you post your TT to one of the boards it is matched against the TTs on that board and then echoed to other boards via the National Genealogy Conference and matched against all the TTs on that net. (Howard please correct me if I have mis-stated the scope of TMS). The major mover in this effort has been Howard Nurse at Comsoft. Best Phil
