Member Since: May 2004 Posts: 620 Send Message	Hi Loren, I just went into my tree to see how to change a name & sucessfully did it (& back again) just by changing it & clicking 'save details to tree'. - not bothering with the 'reset details' thingy. If it doesn't work like that then I'd send a mail to GR to tell them about the problem. Good luck!

	try using the link under, other usefull tools, at the bottom left, click on, Immediate Family then you can add and edit your rellies through that link instead or going through the My family tree, link, then revert back to the My family tree option to do any final editing, I find that some times this is the best way?
