Re: [LegacyUG] Biological and Adoptive Parents
Evert, I did this too, then I reset the relationships. That did it. Thanks so much for your help. I deeply appreciate your assistence.

RE: [LegacyUG] Biological and Adoptive Parents
I have found that if you make alterations like that you need to reset the relationships by running "set relationships" again.
