Options 8.9 and 8.11 have an (ff) against them. This means that they only apply to the file you have open at the time. Doing changes in 7.5 and then copying the file back into 8.0 will lose the customisations that you first applied to the earlier copy of the family file. The 3.3 and 3.4 options have (gbl) against them. They therefore apply to all files. But you may need to press the Apply buttons to make the options have any effect on an existing file. -- Regards, Mike Fry Johannesburg (g) 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).
