Thanks, I'd looked there, but had just overlooked Death Date, I use that Detailed Search quite often, but never for a death date. I don't have it set to automatically update every time, I just hate going back and having so many backups to delete, may have to do that anyway. I am good about backing up when I've entered quite a bit, I just failed to that time. To others that replied, I have my file set to open up the perviously used file, and it didn't delete the individual, it just didn't save the Events I'd put in the last time I used it. Thanks, Syble
