Hi Gilles, I am not sure of the correct reason for the bold or not bold on the select person list, however I have found that the names are shown in bold unless the name is too long for the space so the bold is removed to fit the name in. I have found this theory very easy to replicate on the searches I do. I have no idea if this is the intention of the program or a side effect of something else. I would be interested to find out what the official difference is. Bye Karlena BK user for many years and versions. :-) -----Original Message----- From: Gilles de C. Paquette Sent: Thursday, June 28, 2012 2:11 PM To: BK - RootsWeb Subject: [BK] Bold or not bold Hi, When doing a search on the Edit screen using Find F3, in the list sometimes the names of the parents and/or spouse are bold, sometimes they are not. I checked some but I didn't find why. At times there are parents for the spouse, sometimes there are none. Or sometimes the couple has children and sometimes they don't. What is the rule for this bold or not bold? Thanks.

Hi, Thanks Karlena. I see I'm not the only one wondering about this. Upon further research, I think what you mention is correct: longer names are not shown in bold. As we say in french, I'll go to bed a little less stupid tonight...
