Hi Ron,

My main database has 26,000 individuals, mostly imported from PAF. The PAF status of twin, adopted, etc. were not imported into Legacy and in the year since I've been using Legacy I've never entered anything into CS so they are all blank. My tblCS has only Legacy default values, no triplets or higher.

When I run your querys on my main fdb I get 232 individuals. It would take me a month to fix this in Legacy. When I try to edit CS in your second query I get message "This recordset is not updateable". I'm using Access 2000. I was able to add "Triplet" in tblCS.

I like that I see quadruple entries for single birth for people with natural AND adopted parents. These few I can fix the CS in Legacy. The enormous number of actual twins I would really prefer to correct CS in Access if possible.

Thank you,

Because the child status numbers may differ from one database to another, you will have to first determine which is right for you and then use Access to set those. When there are only a few, it is easier to just enter them on the second query. You may need to set up the child statuses in Legacy first.

My tblCS has the following

IDCS    Child Status
46          Twin
65          Triplet
61          Twin Stillborn

and there are several others. I included the child status in the query so that you could see whether the multiple births were already correctly indicated.
