if you get a film number on which ther is a record of a birth you want to look at in more detail or get a birth certificate for. The record i am talking about in on LDS what do i do next? Can i get the info sent to me or do i physically have to go somewhere to see it? Any advice to a novice would be greatly appreciated. karen

You go to the nearest LDS family history centre - there's a list on the LDS site - and order the film. I haven't done this, but I understand it takes about 3 weeks and costs a small sum. You then go back to the centre to look at it there. nell
