Rich, I agree, it is bad. As I said in my first post, I had not looked at it, I now have. If one uses as standard prefix followed by the RIN using the Options>Customise>Other option then a lowercase can be entered. However if one goes to the Individual Screen and touch nothing, but SAVE then it is converted to uppercase.
I was actually drawing a comparison, obviously a bad one as it turned out. Nevertheless for someone not to have updated to 7.4 and still be living with the bugs prior to 7.4 is not a good idea. I can see that the User ID problem can be serious and hopefully Legacy will correct this ASAP. It is a great pity as some major report bugs have been fixed in this update. Has anybody submitted a bug report? _____________________________________________________ Create your Website with Legacy, see Tutorials at: http://www.fergys.co.uk Includes the family tree for Alan J Grimshaw http://www.fergys.co.uk/Grimshaw/ For The Fergusons of N.W.
