They're not always added automatically for new people. To make them appear - and to refresh them after adding new people - go to Tools --> Set Relationships and follow the instructions. At the same time, if in the View tab of the Customisation screen, you've enables the option "Ancestor Colour Coding", then you might also try Tools --> Apply Ancestor Colours. -- Regards, Mike Fry Johannesburg-- --------------------------------- If anyone chooses to enable Ancestor Colour Coding and later down the track you decide that you do not like it, keep in mind that (in my experience) it is not to easy to remove. If I am wrong and there is an easy way to reverse this, I would be most interested to know how it is done. Colin.
