Tom already answered, but I thought I would add some comments of my own in response to Bruce's questions about Tom's script. > I haven't tried Tom's script, but I see that it puts a -# on the end of > the > sort date.

It doesn't touch facts with no sort dates. Therefore, a birth and death where neither has a date (and therefore no sort dates) is not affected. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ > How does it handle a situation like this? > Married 1800 > Born (no date) > Died (no date) It doesn't touch marriage facts. It doesn't touch facts with no sort dates. Therefore, these facts are not affected. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Not asked, but how does it handle a situation like this? Born 1900 Died 1900 Because the sort dates are equal, it changes the sort date for the birth fact to 1900-1 and the sort date for the death fact to 1900-5. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Not asked, but how does it handle a situation like this? Born 1900 Died 1910 Because there are no sort dates that are equal, it does not change the sort dates. Jerry
