Michelle, The way I would fix this is by selecting View, then Master Lists, then Surname. From the surname list you can edit each surname and make the change global by surname.
Also please send e-mails to the list in plain text.

I am watching the videos again just for fun. It says that you should NOT type in the surnames in all caps but if you want to display them in all caps all you do is check the box for that under the preferences tab. I understand that perfectly HOWEVER, when I was using FTM, I did type in the surnames in all caps so when I imported the file to Legacy it kept that formatting. How do I know? I turned off the display in all caps in the preferences and all my surnames are still in all caps. Is there anyway to fix this? I tried to manually change one name just to see if it would let me but because of the auto entry it retypes it in all caps because that is how that nam was entered in the first place (I wouldn't want to change them one by one anyway). Is there some way to fix this so that the surnames are not in all caps and then I can tell the program to display them in all caps. I hope that all made sense. michele Give Legacy as a Gift for 25% Off.
