You can then make a short gedcom from BK and open if in Notepad and see that you have "all parents" in the Gedcom file. I believe the problem is in the program you use to present the result, not BK.

Dear Otto, I work with BK 6.5.6 I did indeed the steps as you mentioned. I have made a gedcom starting by myself and a gedcom starting with my mother. In these gedcoms I miss my fosterparents. If I make a gedcom starting with my foster-parents than I miss my natural parents. I had hoped to see something like two marriages. I'm not sure that it is not a problem in BK.

Max, Did you try creating a new data base in BK and reading the GEDCOM in and seeing how many parents it shows for you? If it show all of them then the problem is with the other program. What is the name of the other program?
