Dear Group,
 I've come across two new situations that have become stumbling blocks to my reseach.   I refer to them as stumbling blocks, not brick walls, because    I'm sure that our more experienced members have dealt with them, and are willing to share and educate.
 
1.  How do you research in Spain when you don't find IGI films to view?  I've studied the PARES site and have found posssibly useful information, but don't know how to access birth, baptismal, or other records or documents to confirm that I'm dealing with the right person.  I'm sure I need to acquire a new mindset, different from what I've done up to now with online IGI and FHC films, and I'm willing to learn.   
 
2.  How do you access films (#1553565, batch #0760031) that can't be sent to FHC and have limited access at the FHL?    
 
Your help would be greatly appreciated.    Thanks so much.      Alice
