Hello Mike Many thanks for the benefit of your in-depth knowledge. I will go ahead and de-activate the compatibility assistant. I'm looking at the 'Windows Seven Forums', and it seems I need to install a little program to achieve it, which they supply. Hopefully that will stop the script

Okay please bear with me on these color questions, as my mind is trained in TMG J We now have to think outside the box. I have bought both Legacy and Roots Magic 7 and playing with the features. Below CE Wood said I can use 8 colors. If I pick a person/ancestor and color code him, say red,

It looks like I could use 2 colors for one spouse, 2 for the other and 4 for myself. I also have info on my children's spouses. I suppose I could use a color for the 2 of them and limit mine to 2 lines as long as the total is no more than 8. Correct? Sent from my iPad On Dec 2, 2014, at 8:39

Since most of us /aren't/ expert TMG users, we don't know what your TMG box looks like, acts like, or does. Makes it more difficult to communicate meaningfully. Try the HELP file; click on HELP from the ribbon just under the name of the database. Then click on INDEX and enter Customize. Then
