Hi Rita,
While in Family View if your ‘right click’ one of the tags for the person, the
Advanced Tagging screen will open, and the Tag # showing in the ‘Make changes
on #’ should be the tag# that you right clicked on. A great little feature,
but it had not been working correctly.

You have to use the Advanced Tagging feature to tag the line or individuals you
