Siblings without parents can be entered as such :-) Select the Family tab and have the first child as either the husband or wife. Now, double-click on the father or mother above the child. You'll get blank parents with the child now in the children section at the bottom. You'll now be able to right-click on the child and add a brother or sister. -- Regards, Mike Fry Johannesburg 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).
