Hi Sue,
I also use PAF for my family tree. I think that the error message about the dates that you are talking about comes up when you first enter the date information, and at that stage you can either tell the programme to ignore it (maybe the baby was born before the parents were married!) or change it to the correct date.
Hope this helps,
Sue

I use the programme from the family search site I remember once when I was looking through it, I clicked onto something that told me I had mad a mistake on my tree for instance if I had put born for instand 1876 and I put died 1871 by mistake then it would come up as a mistake or if I had put a birth in before a marriage.well the question is what did I do please I can't remember what I clicked on lol.senior moment yes
