Hey All.....First off I want to give a big thanks to Lowell and Mel for all the Hard work they have put into the Agate Index....As you know there was some issues with the download and it had to be pulled ...I hope they don't mind but I couldn't let it be...I wanted to do what I could to keep it going....
I have done a good bit of testing with the Index...After a few different file share sites I am satisfied with this site....It is called Dropbox...I have added my Index folder to my folder on the site...so if you download, all you are getting is my file from my puter....
The first two are large files so it takes a little while to open...
once open you can either just look at the Index or save it to your computer...Like I said the large files take a little time ...So look around the RTH and see whats happening and go back to it later.....

No 3rd party software, it comes right from your computer. It's still safest to have a download virus checker installed and running at all times on your system.

Got it all downloaded in under 10 minutes (possibly under 5 - wasn't clocking it but it was blitz-loading). Works great and the layout between this and the last download I have is better by leaps and bounds - totally awesome! Thanks guys!

For instructions on how to download, see the initial posting on this thread.
At just over 140 pages, it's shorter than the other documents but it hopefully will be an aid to everyone.
Huge thanks to Mel (as usual) as this project would not exist without him. He does a fantastic job
editing my document and advising what ought to be changed.
