Ah, tku - now I can put the matter to rest - I was in and out of hospital
from Jan - Mar and so that is why I would have missed it. I have only
recently felt well enough to get back to the computer and family history
hence my late awareness of it. Tks to all who took time to answer my query.

The problem from where we sit is that it depends on if you want your

I can't argue with that. However, that is where the integrity of research

Always do a backup before you delete, especially when the registry is
concerned. Just a FYI for later. There are some registry values that can
really mess up your computer if you aren't aware of what is being deleted
and the consequences of deleting it.
Good luck

It is *not* false information to include a foster child as a foster child
