Regarding marriage issues and FTW imports....

There is a check box on the Import Options screen which says

[X] Import Marriage 'Ending Status' of Annulment, Divorce, Separation
as events.

If this box is checked then TMG will create an event - even though there
wasn't one in FTW - based on the setting of FTW's 'Ending Status' field for
that marriage.

If you are finding unusual results then you may want change to audit your
Ending Status fields in FTW - or change TMG's import option and try again.

If that doesn't seem to explain/fix the problem (Sarajane & Dan) then
please send me a copy of your FTW data file so that I can trace the problem
for you. Again, I need to see the FTW file in order to be able to help more.
