I agree with Anne - don't split your file up. I wish I hadn't now, and
am slowly working towards merging them back together.
There are tools you can use to help identify people. Use the Ancestor

Without doing extensive testing, I can see that the relationship sources are
scrambled as you say. If you report this bug I'm sure it will be corrected,

entered will then print correctly.

Kirsten,
Without at least doing a File Maintenance/Check Repair on the files I would be
very loath to say it's a bug, it could well be due to corrupted files or
incorrect entries (and I have no time to check this today), and these are just
two possibilities off the top of my head. It should

I do agree, but this morning I was on my way out and have only just returned.

Dennis: I have done a file maintenance/check repair. The same thing keeps
occuring. I ran some other family group sheets on other families, and the same

Sorry, forgot to mention that. It is 7.0.0.55. I never tried sourcing
