From: Brian/Support <[email protected]> Subject: Re: [LegacyUG] Merging from PAF To: [email protected] Date: Tuesday, October 4, 2011, 8:00 AM I just checked out PAF 5. It only has a name field and it is not divided. You have to surround the surname with /surname/ to differentiate it. It also has AKA, Married name, Nickname and title prefix which can be added under the "other" category. Only the title prefix shows on the individual's info when in Family and Pedigree view. I am not sure how you would enter a title suffix, perhaps anything after the /surname/ would be considered a suffix.
