Sorry, but along with this, can I ask how I can change a child so he/she is no longer the preferred child? I know I can select another child, which will cause the first child to no longer be selected, but I don't see an unselect preferred child function. I even added a test son, marked him preferred, then deleted him and the preferred designation just came right back to the first son. But I didn't try to see what would happen if I had more than two children involved - maybe I'll have to try that. --Thanks, --Jerry
