Would you know if there is any way to enter past addresses and dates they lived there, it seems you can only put in the one where they were born. Many thanks Peter

Hi, Peter You are right, there is only space fopr the birth address as a specific entry. I have not started using this part of the program yet, but I would be inclined to put the extra information in the Notes section which follows the Events section. Stan

Hi Peter You can enter different addresses for different events. Open the main properties box for an individual and then clcik on events. Highlight the appropriate event and add the address at the bottom.

Hello, what I have done is created a new event, and now I do not know how to delete it any ideas. This is in the events list, not the individual box. Thanks Peter

Hi Peter! Whilst I'm enjoying using FH 2.1 I have to say it isn't always the most intuitive program - and the 'handbook' such as it is, isn't the most helpful... What event did you create? If you go to the individual's record, highlight the event, then click on the red cross delete button you'll delete it for that person. Not sure how you remove it from the system altogether... but do you need to?

Thank you Linda, You have to delete each individual one, and the last one deletes it from the list. Peter
