Thanks for those samples, David. What I could not quite figure out is
how you are using the FIRST NAME and LAST NAME fields, from your
examples, but it gives me the idea of what you are doing. Thanks, --Jerry

Jerry,
Here are a few samples. They are from my main database from a different
program, But, I do the same thing in all of the programs I run. Yes, the
person index has all of these people at the top of the index, as the "("
comes before any of the letters. As you can see there can be many
different combinations, but they work for me. I use a GEDCOM to go from
my main database to Legacy and other programs that I have installed.

Hi David. I like your use of the ? and I do something very similar.
But would you mind giving me a couple examples of what you place in the
LAST NAME field and what you place in the FIRST NAME FIELD, so I'm sure
of what you are doing? Thanks,
