Now a question ?: Does the person who will form the relationship with the Active Person already exist in the database? If yes, click the {{man button|Select}} button to the other person. You will then be able to browse through the list of people in the database to select the one you want. If not, click the {{man button|+}} button. This will allow you to add a new person to the database and to specify the relationship this person has to the Active Person.

To edit an existing relationship from the {{icon|rela}}{{man label|Relationships}} View, click on the {{man button|[[Image:SelectGramps-personnotes.png|right13px]]Edit}} button next to corresponding Family entry. If there is more than one relationship in the list, you can select the spouse or partner you want by clicking the corresponding {{man button|thumb|350px[[Image:Gramps-notes.png|Fig. 4.2 Selecting a person13px]]Edit}} button next to the relationship.
To specify a new relationship in the {{icon|fami}}{{man label|Family List}} View, click on the {{man button|+}} button on the toolbar, and an empty {{man label|Edit Family}} dialog will open. At this point, you can add people to the family.
== To specify parents ==

You can specify Active Person's parents in the {{icon|rela}}{{man label|Relationship}} View (See ''family-fig''). A little care is required to prevent the creation of duplicate families. If you wish to add the Active Person to an already existing family, you should click the {{man button|Select}} button. If the family including the parents does not already exist, you should click the {{man button|+}} button.
