Toolbar buttons too small

I have just loaded my Version 5 onto a brand new laptop and the toolbar buttons are so small I cannot see them.

Not sure if the attached shows it too well, but this is how they look.

Any ideas?

Thank you

Decipher an occupation please

Thanks hsw and Terry

Well I would give e-amil address, but I guess it is the wrong thing to do on a public site - does this forum have a personal message thing?

Gedcom - Entering details

Thanks for your replies - yes that makes sense. Just one more thing - if I add people who are in that census, from the right hand list into the Record ID list at the bootom will it automatically add the census record (ie Source Text to that persons own record.

However, I do a search for Florence McDonald on ancestry.co.uk and she doesn't appear at all. Is the data for the two sites different? Does this mean I will have t...

Stepchildren

Problem - I think. My wife has two children - thus my step children and I have put them in as her children (with her first husband). If I do a diagram of all relatives they don't appear. Does this mean I have to put them in twice, firstly as her children and secondly as my step children, in order fo...
