How would you enter this relationship/family...

How would you describe using relationship and family records the following.

Biological daughter of two married indivduals, has a son that is then adopted by her own parents. (the grandparents) The problem I have is then when I'm creating the reports its only showing that he was adopted and not by whom. Thanks.

Have you added his Grandparents as a second 'family as child' link?

I presume you have an adoption event? If so I would add a note with the details of the adoption, which will then show in reports.

Well, I guess there are two different ways to report adoptions. One seems to be chart/diagram friendly and the other is nice to reporting. Thanks for the tip. Cheers.
