Because when you ask for individual To Do's you only get those for the current person. I noticed though, when I followed your steps when I had someone selected who had no individual To Dos the display listed the To Dos for the person to whom I last added some To Dos. Brian Kelly On 10-Nov-17

Legacy has General To Do items that do not have to be linked to any particular person. This would probably be the best type for a To Do that is for a surname. The easiest way to add a General To Do is to View To Do List, the Add button there will ask if you want a General To Do or one linked to
