I am looking for some software that could be used to put together a stake leadership calendar & directory. Here are some of the features that I would like to have in the software: * Ability to add recurring calendar events and remove individual recurring events. * Flexibility in printing/formatt...

Inside Utah, there will be a new area code introduced within the next year. This will introduce 10-digit dialing for the areas. It made me start thinking about the data that is in MLS within our ward and wards within our stake... There are several of the telephone number entries that are not a full ...

The Church will have recruiters and managers at the BYU Tech Fair on February 13. It is from 9-3, in the Wilkinson Student Center. Please stop and chat with us, we'd love to answer your questions and get your resumes! Is this fair open to the public in general? (other than BYU students)? Also, I ha...

Your wish is our command. You can also now sort by date if you wish. Tom Is there an RSS feed for the Q&A section specifically? That was fast work... I should have asked earlier!! Thank you. It would also be helpful from the first page that you see when you click on Q&A to know when the mos...

I have been tasked by our Stake President to provide some charts for each of the wards in our stake - using the data from the Quarterly Reports. I found that I can take a quarterly report and "Copy to file" - but that works only one quarter at a time. I have copied these all out to a file ...

I have recently been called to this position (STS) - and so I was very excited to see this site... (I only found out about it here though!) I thought it was great that there was a section for troubleshooting... However, it is hard to browse for related articles - the only way to navigate to the docu...

You are probably remembering when recommends were placed in a plastic sleeve that had a magnetic strip on it. The strip was encoded with the deceased person's name and ordinance and then swiped through a card reader when the ordinance was completed. This is not that. The barcode on the new recommen...
