I thought I'd answered that question in my previous post: if you want Notes, Dates etc to explain the change of name then you would need to use an AKA Event. If you just want to record the AKA and nothing else you use the "Alternate Names" window. You can (and should!) attach Source Citations to either. -- Jenny M Benson 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
