Hi Wendy, thanks very much for the tip which solved my problem. I also deduced from your hint that I have to run the "Set direct Line as preferred" to get the new direct ancestors to show up in bold type. Best regards, Geoff

Relationships have to be calculated from time-to-time, they are not added on the fly. When you're done adding some people, run "set relationships" to update those new people. The relationship calculator is a separate tool whereby you can discover the relationship between any two people in your tree, if there is any. Hope this helps. :-) Kind Regards, Wendy 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 Follow Legacy on Facebook (http://www.facebook.com/LegacyFamilyTree) and on our blog (http://news.LegacyFamilyTree.com).
