I discussed this with Brian off-list and have passed on suggestions to the programmers.

Lightfoot [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Thursday, December 17, 2009 9:32 AM To: [email protected] Subject: RE: [LegacyUG] Living? One more issue about the Presumed Dead setting and the fact that the Living?-YES/NO option remains active on those people flagged as presumed dead: If you make any kind of a text entry in the "Cause of Death", then that person also is presumed dead by Legacy. Makes sense to me so far. But what is different in this case is that a "Cause of Death" entry caused Living?-YES/NO radio buttons to be grayed out, something that fails to get done when similar individuals get presumed dead only because of the number setting in Options. In both cases the individual is marked as dead, yet one has the Living buttons active and the other has them grayed out. My off-line messages with the OP about this lack of graying out those radio buttons is what caused her to question why they were still active, or what function they served. Now that we know they are not a provision for a single-case exception (manual override), then it seems to be a programming error. Bug report already submitted. Brian in CA I think I finally know all about the ins-and-outs of Presumed Dead options and the Advanced Living Tool.
