In the help file enter sort then select Index View "Sorting the List The Index View can be displayed in either surname, given name order, or RIN number. Click the Surname, Given or RIN button at the top of the window, or click in the Surname, Given or RIN box. The list is then redisplayed in that order." It is generally better to start with a simple, broad search in the help files. -- Gene Young Researching Young, Harer, Cox & Sallada With Legacy Family Tree http://myyoungs.atspace.com/index.htm 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).
