Hi Graham,
I find the 3.0 Viewer wonderful, in fact I think its magic! I had heard
about the 4.0 one but was told by the Distribution Centre that it was not
yet available, that was about six weeks ago. I am surprised it is not as
versatile as the 3.0, can you tell what it does extra to the 2.0? Also is
it possible to have both the 3.0 and 4.0 installed and swap from one to the
other.
Regards,
Margaret Harvey

Hi all. This is being cross-posted. Some folks will receive
duplicates.
Remember back a month or so all the excitement about Viewer 3 and how it
came with the Mormon Immigration Index for free (well you had to pay for
the immigration index, naturally). Everyone finds it a very useful tool,
in
that the search facility allows you to put in any word or a
combination of
words, such as name, place, occupation. Marvellous. I've found it very
useful.
At the same time as ordering the Mormon Immigration Index I ordered the
British Isles Vital Records and was delighted to find that they came with
Viewer 4. Well, I was going to donate the MII to the local LDS library
anyway (which I did), so included the Viewer 3, which I felt I no longer
needed. Not so. After a computer crash I re-installed the LDS records but
found Viewer 4 did not give me the search facility that was on Viewer 3.
Now, I have to go back to the LDS library and "borrow" back my Viewer 3.
Lesson learnt.
bye
