years back the lds church put out a beta program on family search.
i was involved in it and i got the igi for the world, the ancestral file,
the library file on disk, and a couple of others. about once a year
they would send out new disks. they would update it with a number
like 2.1 or 5.6 or whatever. i know this is still going on but i
have moved three times in the last 9 years and they lost track of
me. is there anyone out there that knows what update number they
are up to now? thanks for any help.</font><br>

I suspect you're talking about the FamilySearch program, where some
people had access on their home computers to much of the information (the
IGI, Family History Library, etc.) that's available at local family
history centers. These were on numerous CD disks that were updated from
time to time via shipment of superseding disks. I think this program was
stopped several years ago when the information became widely available at
<a href="http://www.familysearch.org/" eudora="autourl">www.familysearch.org</a>.
In addition, newer computers could no longer access the program because
changes in their underlying structure eliminated expanded memory, which
was required by FamilySearch.<br><br>
