Thanks everybody for the information. In return, I’m wondering if the following might be of help: I have a very ‘wide’ tree with 13 generations and nearly 500 entries which is difficult

No problem. This is the assignment for this afternoon. Bill

A simple way is to go to the Records Window for Individuals and type the Christian name into the field “First” at the top of the window. An alternative would be a query but try the simple way

Can anyone tell me how to send an all relatives diagram of a particular relative to that relative?

Hello, I really need some help with the following. I made an record for a person. I filled in all the information that I had. But now I found out that there are two different persons with the same
