BMD is still there but it is no longer a beta index - the term 'beta index' is used to show that it is a test version, so presumably they think that it is all OK and up and running properly. Christina

Syliva are you taking the * out and putting . in their place???? genes won't let us put web addresses on this site.. so to get round it, we replace the dots with stars.. does that help?

Hi all, Thanks for the link to the beta indexes!!! I couldnt access them from my previous favourites, beta indexes had gone! As someone else did, I searched for a birth I had previously viewed on the beta, no match on bmd!! Thanks again, the link takes you straight there! Collette
