ok, well its a bit confusing here. You first mention that you want to change the Private to Biological or Blank
But then you say its the Father Relationship and Mother Relationship that are marked as Private. These are not the same things. When you look at the childrens settings (right click in the area where the children are listed under the parents in a Family View screen) That opens the childrens settings screen Each Child can have a different "Child Status" This field is what you could change to Blank or Biological if they are all set to Private. You dont need access to do that First as always make a backup (and even better make a copy to test on first) Go to VIEW>Master Lists> Child Status. Than COMBINE your Private with a one of the other available (or blank) This will GLOBALLY change all persons. If when looking at the childrens settings the boxes next to Relationship to Father or Relationship to mother are checked (flagged) as Private, then you would need to use a SQL query to change them UPDATE tblCR SET tblCR.CPDadPrivate = 0 WHERE tblCR.CPDadPrivate = 1 Then the same for the mother UPDATE tblCR SET tblCR.CPMomPrivate = 0 WHERE tblCR.CPMomPrivate = 1 But again, this will change ALL persons. If when Looking at the childrens settings and the drop down list contains Private then you can change those the same way as Child Status VIEW> Master Lists> Child Parent Relationship then combine or edit your available types.
