Hi Jane,
Thank you, and thanks to everyone who responded - the LUG is just great!
I can certainly live with typing something in the Find box to force
the list to display. It's nice to know I'm not the only one seeing
squirrelly grid behavior.
Thanks again!

Jane, thank you - that worked! Typing anything in the FIND field
causes the Child Status list to be displayed.
Many thanks,

Hi Dennis,
I've just done a cold reboot and the problem is still there.
I created a new test family file from scratch, and the default entries
appear as they should. I then imported the Child Status entries from
my family file into the new test file, and that worked properly too.
But when I go ba

Which version of Legacy are you using? I think the reduced list of
