Jill I think you are being a bit harsh. John was only asking that a potential point of error be eliminated. It may well be that this feature is also useful, but that was not what John was on about.

( I am _not_ my own granddad ) ? are you sure about that, as it sounds like you are confused. If you don't like it, BK as it is, well choose another program. I have been using Brothers Keeper since 1986, have over 53,000 names and some 4,000 photos recorded, and it all works wonderfully.
