Thanks Cathy. But I am sure the original item was "General" as I extracted all my todo list to a csv file last year and I've finally found it to confirm the type. When I noticed the problem yesterday the same thought occurred and so that is why I created a new one very carefully. I had a filtered list of tagged, open General tasks and edited one of them and it disappeared from the list. That is when I found it by listing All tasks.
I have just tried again, by opening the todo list and selecting only General tasks. Then filtering for Open and Tagged. I edited the task by changing the Reminder Date and saved the item. It disappeared from the list, but I found it attached to the same individual as before - not the person who was currently focussed in the family view. So editing the reminder date keeps attaching the task to my RIN 6800 person !! I'll raise a bug report Jack -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Cathy Sent: 03 June 2008 06:06 To: LegacyUserGroup@legacyfamilytree.com Subject: Re: [LegacyUG] V6 - To Do problem Hi Jack, I haven't seen this. But are you sure you entered it as a General ToDo? You have to check the window at the top of the screen which can be changed from General to Individual before you click the Add. In the Deluxe edition you can copy a To Do and paste it elsewhere. Different filters set to the ones you expect or looking at General rather than All or Individual To Dos, is usually the reason To Dos appear to disappear.
