Gene, Your string is the one that I had, and it still is returning the error "Too many results were returned from the search to be displayed".
The string that Judy offered does work, so something did change. Thanks Judy!

Paden > [email protected] > www.padenfamily.org Since you didn't say in your original post I will assume you are referring to http://search.labs.familysearch.org/ They have done a mavor reorganization to their site and this has changed the search criteria. The following link can be pasted into your search criteria and will work: http://search.labs.familysearch.org/recordsearch/start.html#searchId=9852562 6706252810000;p=recordResults;givenName=[GivenNames];searchType=standard;sur name=[LastName] You will have to cut and paste the entire string with no spaces. If this occurs again in the future just go to the site, conduct a search and copy the entire url that appears in the address bar. Copy it to a text editor and substitute the appropriate Legacy codes in the search string where appropriate, ie; givenName=Eugene becomes givenName=[GivenNames] and surname=young becomes surname=[LastName]. This works with any site you wish to search. -- Gene Young Researching Young, Harer, Cox & Sallada With Legacy Family Tree Legacy User Group guidelines: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/Etiquette.asp Archived messages after Nov. 21 2009: http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/ Archived messages from old mail server - before Nov. 21 2009: http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/ Online technical support: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/Help.asp To unsubscribe: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/LegacyLists.asp Legacy User Group guidelines: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/Etiquette.asp Archived messages after Nov. 21 2009: http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/ Archived messages from old mail server - before Nov. 21 2009: http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/ Online technical support: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/Help.asp To unsubscribe: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/LegacyLists.asp
