Thanks for all your suggestions; having closed it down and left it for a while, when I came back to it, it had all been changed successfully. Phew! thanks again.

Or you can alter the entry to,Add Father, which is what shows normally.

Thanks Gins, but I have already tried that, and I can't do it as I've got children entered.

I have entered a father, but on closer inspection of the original census sheet, I see that the translation is wrong and in fact it is Mary (therefore mother) not Harry. I don't seem to be able to edit the entry - is there any way I can do this, please?
