@maryellenstevensbarnes1 and others, now that I am doing Family Indexing Review I need reminding of How to Highlight a hyphenated name from one line to the next. I haven't figured out how to do that yet.

    @Mary Rice In Full Name Review its done by answering "No" to is full name highlighted, then you can add a new highlight to the missing part. If there are any unwanted/stray highlights, detach them and you should have what you need by step 3. Example: Cathe-rine M. H. In Step 4, correct any spelling and remove the hyphen & hit Done. I took a look at Family Indexing Review but I don't read/speak Spanish very well so I didn't want to give incorrect info, sorry.

    @Mary Rice You're absolutely correct in your comparison of FNR and FIR; they are two different "animals" and I'm not experienced enough in FIR to give any answers. Let's try reposting this question as

Thank you ☺️

    @maryellenstevensbarnes1 Sorry to say that I had written a long response to the above information yesterday but the program would not allow me to "Post" it saying 'You are not allowed' for some ? crazy reason. Very, very frustrated as you can imagine. As it was gone this morning I will try to condense it and try again.

    I have compared Full Name Review vs Family Indexing Review and see that there is no Question in FIR that asks a "Yes or No". It is only in FNR so I cannot use your suggestion above. I've exhausted my attempts at adjusting and deleting wrong highlights. I then can only ignore the highlights and finish the correct name to be able to complete and submit the Family Names which I don't know if I helped or not. I will post another question re: Linked Names that are completely unhelpful and cause major problems.

    This is the current Family Index Review that I am trying to submit but when I try to Unlink this Grandfather's name shown as Adriana, which is his Wife's Given Name, I can change it to Eugenio but during the eight name Review before Submission his Wife's Given Name is Eugenio and back and forth repeatedly. Unlink will not allow me to Submit both of these Given names correctly, so I cannot submit the Family.

    @ all of the above tagged recipients. I have yet to get an answer from any of you regarding Linked names in Family Indexing Review and the issue continues. I have had to send whole Families back undone because I cannot Unlink two wrong surnames. Is this being looked at in the UPDATE of current Opportunities problems? This is so frustrating as I spend 30 minutes on each Indexing Review and have to send them back unfinished because of this issue.
