I have over 2,000 individuals listed and most have dates, but not a single one has any Birth or Death dates in the Name Search listings. Why does this occur in one database and not the other?

I can confirm that my database shows dates in the Name Search. Have you dragged the window out wide enough to show them? Tim Churchill -- No virus found in this outgoing message.

The Birth Child/Adopted Child seems to be the idea - see p104 of the manual (for v.3.12 anyway others may be different page) although I'm not sure what is meant by "more than two sets of parents"! I would have thought that having one set of parents would qualify you as a birth child.
