Hi Mike Thanks for your swift reply. I might add that the problem with the glaringly obvious is that it isn't until it's pointed out to you ;) You set me off on the right lines. It was a spouse that I'd inadvertently entered in the wrong place and deleted (or not). After your reply, I opened the rec...

Hi I created an entry on a tree, which generated a tree 'box'. The entry was a mistake and I tried to delete it. The entry disappeared, but the empty box remains. Every time I generate a chart, I've got to 'Hide' the box, which is really irritating, especially when I forget and print the chart up, c...

:oops: :oops: :oops: Oh dear! Am I embarrassed. I ignored the first law of computing: "When in doubt, reboot." I have just sat down to boot up the machine and do battle. In the process I discovered absolutely everything in its rightful place. The crash appears to have had no effect whatsoe...

Thanks for that idea, David.
It will be tomorrow before I have time to try it out, but I'll report back as to what happened.

Hi I'm using latest version of FH. Yesterday, I spent quite a while putting information into FH. Then, just before I shut down (why is it always just BEFORE), my graphics card & driver went nuts, pushing the machine into a loop from which it just wouldn't recover. I shut the machine down without...

That was not really what I said (or, at least, what I meant). CP, although they probably enjoy their work, are not doing it for the love of it. Ultimately, they are doing it for money; that makes them professionals. I maintain that it is unprofessional to ignore a piece of software which is below sp...

Ah! Perhaps I should get a smaller size in clogs! But then, putting my foot in it is nothing new. :( Nope! Whatever you do, don't withdraw the plug-in. You certainly did the right thing and can rightly assert the moral high ground. Quite apart from anything else, I'd still be muttering and trying to...

OOps! Forgot. Credit where credit's due.
What I've been carping on about is a very minor detail.
I think FH is a cracking piece of software and have enjoyed using it.
There really is no better.

Um! I seem to have been the cause of some upset. Sorry. I appreciate your reply and the points you made, Mike, but I would suggest it merely strengthens the point I was trying (perhaps clumsily) to make. I'm sorry, too, if my brevity confused. LornaCraig was quite right in her reply, except instead ...

Hi I have just encounterd this same problem, Mar 18 and got it working using the tip. Thanks guys. It did, however, occupy time I had set aside for my genealogy research. I do like FH, but am driven to ask why, to get a part of the program to work as specified, I have to find a solution to the symto...
