Lila, To select all people with marriage notes, you can follow these steps: Search menu Advanced Focus/Filter Define (Click Advanced if Define is not shown) Marriage Notes Exists OK OK Show results only Now the list displayed will be limited to people with marriage notes. Double clicking a name will take you to that person. Using Ctrl+F or the binoculars icon will return you to the list of people with marriage notes. To return the list to it's normal state, remove the checkmark from Show results only. I hope this helps. Bill Davis is correct in saying that marriage notes can be shown on FGRs, but they cannot be shown on some reports and charts.

Thanks, Bill. I knew there was some place where I wanted marriage notes to appear and they did not--it must not have been an FGS. I didn't have many marriage notes, and they are taken care of. I had to have "all" in the relationship filter to make your directions work. Filtering is beyond my poor old brain, so thanks a bunch.
