is close to 50MB -- and took hours to download. I only recently got
high speed (and love it) but being on 24k dial-up didn't stop me. I

can be given a source file reference and this can be entered into the Source

Your procedure is not clear. When you add the child - how, are you clicking the
space for children below the parents or one of the alternative methods? How are
you getting to the marriage screen - are you going to the child and clicking
the husbands box or another method - if so

As far as I can tell, this bug was fixed in the new version (7.0.0.76)
released on Saturday. Beyond that the only way I know of to prevent
