Most of these do not actually exist. They're 'potential events/facts'. If you look at the rest of the row for each of these items, you'll see columns for Source List Name, Detail and Y. Entries in these columns are what determine whether the events exits or not. When you cite a source for a fact, entries will be placed in these other columns. Most of them are self-explanatory - or should be - once you know what the abbreviations stand for. rel = relationship Marr = married (one per spouse) Because the events 'Had No Children', 'Did not Marry' etc. do *not* have a citation, they don't exist. At least, not as far as reports are concerned. -- Regards, Mike Fry Johannesburg Legacy User Group guidelines: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/Etiquette.asp Archived messages after Nov. 21 2009: http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/ Archived messages from old mail server - before Nov. 21 2009: http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/ Online technical support: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/Help.asp To unsubscribe: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/LegacyLists.asp
