Colour might seem like the best way, but as it isn't an option you are going to have to accept a not-so-good way. If you don't like the way something in Title Prefix or Title Suffix appears in a Report your best possibly option is probably going to be to use the Title Prefix or Title Suffix field but enter the information in Privacy Brackets (enter [[probably parent]]) and then edit any Report you produce to add a Note about this person's status. This seems unnecessarily long-winded to me, though. I see nothing wrong with entering something like "(possible parent of Joe Bloggs)" in the Title SUFFIX field, which causes a Report to read "John Bloggs (possible parent of Joe Bloggs) was born ..." -- Jenny M Benson 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).
