I am trying to index. I have an image of a Book of death records. Can't get to the next page. I finally was able to see a second window that showed the next 5 pages all marked example only. I can't get the one I have been working on to become the next page. I can't submit because i haven't been able to turn the page and fo from 14 records to the 30 I seem to be required to finish. Don't know how to ....... make any progress.


I did some of this a couple of years ago, and if this frustration level doesn't drop soon I will go back to studing 3 year old sitcoms on the tele.

    that is quite the choice...

    I believe the answer to your frustration is that the batches are sent out with a default amount (30 as you indicate) of Records/Entries to index even though the page may have considerably less records. Therefore the thing to do is to delete the remaining/blank records and then submit the amount that reflects the records on the actual page/image. To delete extra/blank records use the Trashcan icon (the 8th icon in toolbar at top when at the 15th/first blank record - you will see the option to delete all blank records at once rather than deleting each one individually).

    I hope this helps avoid further frustration and 3 year old sitcoms. Keep up the good work!
