	Tried both of them - Ancestry won't let me save to computer - only to shoebox. Tried printing then scanning - have a new 'all in one scanner thingy' (+ new Vista system) - It will only save to temporary files, then I can't find them !!! Sorry - all going wrong here !!!!! Dea x

	Save.........using the icon above the image.....then e-mail as attachment(s) If you use the 'send to a friend' option, Ancestry keeps a record, and stops you if you do too many Reg

	Dea, I had this problem with Vista, you need to have 'Internet Options' then 'Protected Mode Off' and then they save OK Jennifer
