Found another hilarious little buggie 
Setup:
1. Create an individual.
2. Enter Birth Date, mark individual deceased, enter Death Date and then press OK (or click on another field).
3. Go back to Death tab.
The bug:
1. Trying to delete Death Date fails, because age of individual is used to count the Death Date after you hit OK (or click on another field).
2. Trying to delete Age fails, because Death Date is used to count the Age of individual after you hit OK (or click on another field).
3. Trying to uncheck Deceased fails; the individual remains dead after clicking OK even though the check mark goes away and every field in the tab is greyed out.
More (another bug):
4. Trying to wake up the dead from drawing screen by pressing X gets rid of deceased X over the Individual object until see his/her Properties again. The individual "dies again" after clicking OK.
--
Suggestion: 1 & 2 are right behaviour. It's the 3 and 4 that need to be corrected.
(3) If the deceased checkbox is unchecked (and information on Death tab therefore greyed out), the individual should be alive and all information on Death tab either deleted or neglected.
(4) This should uncheck the deceased checkbox as well.

| Sounds like a dead end. I agree GenoPro should be smarter on this, however this is not an easy solution. In the meantime use the context menu item Clear Date which will do the trick.

| Yeah, I ran into this problem too, but its intermittent. However, when I do hit it, I enter a '?' in the death date field, the field goes pink, but it doesn't register a date after that. I haven't tried the clear date field suggestion yet, but will give it a spin when I get a chance. I would like to know the (windoz C/C++) reason why this is a difficult thing to fix...

However, when I do hit it, I enter a '?' in the death date field, the field goes pink, but it doesn't register a date after that.GenoPro displays the pink background color when a date is not valid. The value should be remembered and stored in the .gno file however. Do you have a specific step-by-step scenario for this?
