That is very strange. I tried doing a search for any event dates after 2010 and I got no hits. There is an option in the searches to search for modified date. If you had chosen that by accident you could easily get a ton of people with 2010-2011 dates but they wouldn't be attached to an event. I wonder if when you imported the GEDCOM something strange happened.

Where would those dates show up, Michele? In my situation, the dates in question are INVISIBLE - I can't see them anywhere, but I can SEARCH for date contains 2010 (for example) and the records show up in my search criteria. But going to the records does not show these dates anywhere. Very weird. Another facet to this problem (and why I started to do these searches) is that there are some dates that do show up, such as 27 August 2010, etc., but they are attached to EVENTS that are completely blank. So, I simply delete them, but I'm not sure how I can globally delete them because there is no event name. Everything is blank except the dates. I do not have the luxury of starting anything over from my cousin's gedcom, etc., because I've already done major work on this file and it does not appear to be corrupt and the file I'm working on is well over 10,000 individuals. The information is good, other than this weird dating thing that I cannot explain. Has anyone ever experienced anything that resembles this at all?
