Thank you
But only if you are the profile manager as only he/she or those on the trusted list can do so . Otherwise you need to discuss the change with the profile's manager or seek "trusted status".
Hi Gillian,
I tried this but it did not work. Ron W. suggested I have to be on the trusted list, which I am, but the "last name at birth" is still locked.
Hi Ron,
Thank you for your suggestion. I am on the trusted list, but I am still not able to change the "last name at birth". Any other suggestions to help me?
Sincerely,
Debi Longoria
