I wondered why I received no posts; then figured it was Spring Break and everyone was busy; then checked the archives and found there were posts, but that I had received none of them! So I posted this message which was returned with Legacy's message: "To: wood...@msn.com Subject: You do not h

I'm not advocating one side or the other to this potential programming change but I'm just curious as to why the change is up to the programmers. You'd think the design and direction of the software would be an executive decision or at least coming from a management design team. Programmers usua

The discussion was reasons to split that question.  The wording in Legacy is "marriage" in that checkbox, not relationship.  There was no marriage and there was a child.  If you want to take it a step further, I have a bunch that were married but did not have children.   From: Jim Terry/Sup

JIm, Sure... I do it all the time, but I was not talking about marriage status. I was talking about the checkbox "This person was never married and has no children" which is the subject of this thread. I know that a user can decide that the word "married" in that checkbox can mean whatever they
