We may need a little time to figure out how the thing works. :-)

I would suggest you sign up for Steve Roud's demonstration session on May 5. Presumably he'll know the tricks better than the rest of us. :-)

If May 5 doesn't work for you, the other alternative really is to download the actual database, which Steve makes available as text, and use it in your own database, or to use the Ballad Index software, which has far more search options than even the online version.

As for offering recordings, you'll need to offer them to EFDSS, not here. And I'd suggest waiting a few weeks, until things are settled down.
