How many children? There are screens for 1-5, 1-10 and 1-15. I have some with over fifteen and it adds a 'scroll' to get to the last 3 of 18. If needed it holds 16-30. I have no family with over 30 children from the same couple, but it should work the same. When you have a 'filled table' right

I am unable to change a birth date even after I delete what is there and add correct date, the orginial date will pop in again and delete the new date. And the slide that allows more children has dissappeared. Just not there. I am afraid I caused all this by trying to change an item I read

Nothing comes up to explain that section. It is the slide at the end of the children's list in the family view on the right side. When I have more children that the 3 section list of children will handle, by opening the slide I can add more children. It is just gone. -Original

Beth, From the family view: Click letter a (for add) then click the letter s (for son) or letter d for daughter...a pop box opens to add either a new person or an existing one...choose new and the child's information view opens. When you have finished adding your information, click save...and you

The slide will only show if you have more than 15 children (if you have selected the 3 column display). Do as Mike suggested and right click on any child, then add brother or add sister. If that addition takes you over the 15 children then you should be able to see the slide. Regards Pam

Beth, I guess that you mean the scroll bar on the right. Try going to OptionsCustomiseView and set child columns to best fit or to whatever number you prefer (bottom left of the screen). I use best fit and when the list is full I right click on the last name to add brother/sister. Ron Ferguson
