Problem:
I am unable to change a birth date even after I delete what is there and add
correct date, the orginial date will pop in again and delete the new date.




"Best Fit" for children was really great.  Hadn't noticed they had added 
another selection.

And the way to add more kids by clicking on the a s and then d etc. up pops a 
very interesting window that I will explore

As for the date that won't change.... I did notice my calendar was lite up but 
nothing in it helped but I do know it is not usually lite.

Yes, I used the slash when adding a birth date as  '7 Jan 1693/4' but came out 
as 1693/94.  I have used that form before with no problem.  I orginially typed 
7 Jan 1693/94.  Typing now and should be:  7 Jan 1694  but goes back to the 
1693/94 each time.
 I have ran the File Maintenance/Check/Repair file. Problem still there.

Thanks to all that helped.

Is it possible that Legacy is converting what you type into either the
British or American format for dates, depending on which you are meaning
to use.

What I mean is, are you typing something like 12/01/1800 (meaning
December 1st (American style) and what is appearing is 12 January
(British style)?  Or vice versa.

Beth,
>From the family view:
Click letter "a" (for add) then click the letter "s" (for son) or letter "d" 
for daughter...a pop box opens to add either a new person or an existing 
one...choose "new" and the "child's information" view opens.  When you have 
finished adding your information, click "save"...and you will see your 
information on a new "page" for entering children.

Nothing comes up to explain that section.  It is the slide at the end of the 
children's list in the family view on the right side.  When I have more 
children that the 3 section list of children will handle, by opening the slide 
I can add more children.  It is just gone.

 am afraid I caused all this by trying to change an item I read on the list
 here.
I presume that you are referring to the horizontal scroll-bar at the bottom of
he Children portion of the Family tab? If not what and where - we would prefer
indow titles. If you right-click on a child's name, a context menu pops up.
lick on View and select the option that is most appropriate to you.
