Colin,
My daughter did the same, changing her surname to that of her partner's when
her first child was due. I did exactly as you suggested. There is also the
alternative of creating a "Change of Name" Event and putting the details in
there.

Thanks Ron, it is good to know I was on the right track. The only slight
confusion was created by me when I entered the new baby's name under the
mother's present name hyphenated with my grandson's name, as per the
information I was first given.
What happens if I give the child's mother her correct name and then the
daughter a different name, the name by which she will be know.
I hope you can follow all this, it is a tad convoluted.{;-)
Colin.
