By default the existing version of WinBMD has that feature disabled. This was a mistake in version 4 which is fixed in version 5 which is being tested.

For the third time this week one of the recruits to my new Syndicate has complained about having to type so many forenames by hand and wonders why WinBMD doesn't have a pick-list for names as well as districts.... For the third time I have asked him or her to check whether this option was in fact "switched off" on the Options menu - and in each case this proved to be so. I am wondering whether the downloadable version of WinBMD has somehow got this option disconnected - I can't believe that three transcribers could each accidentally lose the Forenames picklist. Any comments from the wise men?
