Hi Andrew,
Do you know what the "new features" will be?

Hi Sarah,

That would take the element of surprise out of it. A read at the last User Group minutes may yield some clues.

All the best,

You're being a tease Andrew.

Least you could have done was add in the link to the minutes. They are very hard to find.

Hi All

OPR Death Registers might be on by the end of the year?

That will be a help, unfortunately it might also be a disappointment.

Whichever it is, at least it won't do any harm.

Modern Indexes get a mention for testing September/October

I hope Trish is right - I'm looking forward to the search by parents' names to find a birth which is supposed to be up at the end of the year = but I really think that would be pushing it... one can dream.

I've never known SP to be ahead of schedule - it would be a first
