Once as the child of X & Y (call this person A), and once as the spouse of Z (call this person B)? If so, what you want to do is "merge" A & B. You don't want to "link" them. If you have X & Y's child (A) already in your database and you later discover that A married Z, you should "link" A to Z via the "Add Spouse|Link to existing..." option. If you have Z's spouse (B) already in your database and you later discover that B is X & Y's child, then you should "link" B to X & Y via the "Add Parents|Link to existing..." option. I'm not sure I made myself very clear. Maybe someone else could take a stab at an explanation. -- Dennis M.
