Unless otherwise advised the file should be saved in the form YYEQ****.SCA
Where:
YY = Last two digits of the year.
E = Event i.e. Birth (B), Marriage (M) or Death (D)
Q = Quarter 1,2,3 or 4 for March, June, September and December
**** = Unless the following paragraph applies,this is entered as the last four
numbers of the scan file name. e.g. If the scan filename is 41M4-B-0026.gif
then 0026 is added to make 41M40026. If the scan has only 3 digits add a leading
zero.
Some scans filenames are grouped on separate web pages according to the first
letter of the surname. Where this is the case special action is required to
adjust the 'Page' number according to the group the scan is listed in. As an
example March 1840 scans are in three groups A-C, C-N, and O-Z. If your allocation
comes from this type of web page then you must check the special instructions before you start.
Don't forget when you save the file, it must have the ending '.sca' e.g. 44B11234.sca
