So sorry, Valerie! We do get carried away with the alphabet soup sometimes! Don't be afraid to ask... I'm sure there were others who were wondering. TMG is The Master Genealogist, and I'm sorry that I didn't make that clear from the outset!

Perhaps if I had realized from the beginning that TMG was a software program and not some website, I would have understood. Thanks to everyone. I do not use TMG, alas.
