Talk:California, County Birth and Death Records - FamilySearch Historical Records/Known Issues

I'm confused as to how to search for a death certificate in the California births/deaths after I have found the individual in the CADI where there is a state file number. Shouldn't the state file number found in the index be used to search for the actual certificate? There doesn't seem to be any order by date or name and therefore can take hours to search for a certificate. Am I doing something wrong?
