Hi Laura,

You've already had responses that have told you that yes, you can have
Sansone and SANSONE in your surnames list, but they will be separate,
unattached names.  That may not be what you want.

Did you know that you have other methods for highlighting your direct
line?  You don't have to rely on capital letters here.

You can have your direct line showing in bold lettering.  Options >
Customize > Data Format > Indicate direct-line children in lists (bold)

You can have relationships showing above the central couple in Family
View.  Tools > Set Relationships

You can put an asterisk against a "preferred" child in any family.  It's
automatically applied to the first child entered, but it is quickly
changed if desired.  Right-click on a child in Family View and select
Children's Settings; select the child you want and click on Set to
Preferred Child.

Hope this helps.  :-)

Kind Regards,
Wendy Howard
