Valerie,
My vote is to put Mrs.? Alice as her given name. With your Guild of
one-name studies, you'll probably run across this situation often and may
want to find these ladies easily.
I found her (and a few others I entered to play) easily by entering Mrs.
as the given name in the Name
Thanks JLB but I am doing a One-Name study so at the moment most people are
not related.

It is my understanding they are writing a converter to transform old
sources into the new sources format. It probably will not be perfect,
so there will be some input required by the user. You can always
leave your old sources as is and not do anything with them is another
option. I think it wil

New people are generally added to be in relation to some-one who's
already there so the Family View that shows the family relationships

John,
I cannot see how one can stop the pop-up for the Log File and nor do I know of
a faster way of changing the RINs.

I'm not sure what you mean, Valerie. From the Index (is this what you mean

whatever the category of person is ( wife, son, unrelated, etc).

I guess it's helpful to have key people at an easily rememb
