Art- Let me reword what I think you said--
You want to be able to open a family file, any family file, and select several people. Their names may, or may not, be similar. Then, using the list of people you selected or tagged, and just those people only, you want to sort by birthdate, perhaps oldest to youngest, or youngest to oldest.
Have I got it? Thanks. Robert At 2009-10-23 03:55 PM, you wrote:
