dumb list, but the RIN numbers, if I put them in numerical order, will
that tell me how many people I have on my family tree?

and some other groups.
I have been doing genealogy for close to 5 years, due to medical

You can use Renumber RIN's under Tools to renumber RIN's one at a time.
So, if the only one she cares about is herself, that would be easy.
Otherwise, it's one at a time all the way through.

This is an option. You've reset the option to its' default: RINs off.
Goto Options--> Customize. Select the View tab. There you'll find a group of
