Is it possible you could have changed something?
The Options - database options for instance?
Or, maybe even loaded an old database where the options were set
differently?
Or, did you enter the name in all caps?

As for the pronouns, RootsMagic always uses the name with the first fact
and the pronouns after that.

Everyone blames the program, way more than half of the problems reported
are caused by operator error.
Think about it.
