Brother’s Keeper 6.2.4

August 20, 2005

Brother’s Keeper 6.2.4 (bkwin.org) has been released. Brother’s Keeper is a Windows genealogy shareware program that will help you organize your family history information and let you print a large variety of charts and reports. BK5 works with Windows 3.1 and up with 8 megs RAM or more. BK6 works with Windows 95, 98, ME, NT, 2000, XP. There is no charge to download BK to try it out.

Changed:

    * On Book reports, if an event date and location are blank, but it has a source attached, it will print the event name and source.
    * On Book reports, a change was made in version 6.2.1 to print a blank line after notes of one spouse before printing another spouse (in certain circumstances). This has been further modified in version 6.2.4 to not print that extra blank line if the children are printed after the note instead of another spouse being printed. This change was made to fix a problem of an extra blank line in some situations.

Fixed:

    * When viewing a list of names, if the bottom line says “click here for more” it will not give an error now if you accidentally double click it.

Brother’s Keeper 6.2.3

August 4, 2005

Brother’s Keeper has been updated to version 6.2.3.

New:

    When you click on a picture on Edit to display it full screen, you can pick File, Reduce to 1024 by 768 if the picture is larger than that.

Fixed:

    * Sometimes the pictures would not print on the Compute Relationship Box Chart even if picture option was turned on for Box Charts.
    * Sometimes pictures for Compute Relationship Box Chart were slightly outside the boxes.
    * The new feature in 6.2.2 to put both husband and wife name in note of witness was not working correctly if you added two or more witnesses in the same session.
    * Sometimes if an event had a normal date, and then you modified the date to be over 20 characters long, it would disconnect a source for that event.
