Thanks to everyone's input. It has stopped me from being mistaken about how relationships are worked out.

Some of my direct ancestors have married more than once and had children in each marriage but those born in the second or later marriages are being labelled as half cousins. Surely they are still my cousins regardless?
How do I get them to display as full cousins?

Thank you both. You are both so helpful.

I will take your advice and reinstall the program to the c drive and then read the article regarding the transfer from one machine to another before moving all the data.

I have just had a new computer and I am keeping drive c for the Windows operating system as it is quite small but drive d is very large. This is where I have installed the program files but the project folder has somehow been installed on drive c. I would like to have the project file on drive d as ...

Hi Mike,

ignore previous message. I see you meant top of this page.....that's the trouble with using a small screen!

Thanks

Hi Mike,

can't find a User Control Panel centre top as suggested. Is it within FH or elsewhere.

Thanks

Brilliant. Thanks so much.

Having imported a file from a relation who used Ancestry all the Census entries are labelled Residence so it's impossible to generate a Census report. Is there an easy way to convert the data or will I have to use Ancestral Sources to input the data as Census entries?

Thanks.

AJ

Thanks Nick, I will use an old project I no longer use to play with.

I am about to start using Ancestral Sources for all the census data I have gathered over the years and decided to look at the tutorials. But I'm a little confused as to whether I have to configure the initial settings for each and every project I have or is it just a one off that has to be done as i...

Glad it wasn't me doing silly things then. It just seemed that the census tab in the property box would be a really good way to keep all the years together. Will keep checking just in case it gets fixed.

Thanks for keeping trying though.[smile]

Hello Tatewise,

yes it does look like the screenshot but when I went back to the Focus Window and expanding the data for the person I had added just one record for there were lots (and I mean lots) of blank lines labelled either Census or Occupation.

Thanks Tatewise, will now use Ancestral Sources for Census data.

Is it possible to uninstall the Property Box Tabs: Census UK function?

Have just updated from V4 to V5 and have added the custom Census UK tab. Filled in just one record and checked the person's record in the Focus Window and there are loads and loads of blank lines labelled Census or Occupation for this person. Have I done something wrong or is there a bug? Using Wind...

Thanks Jane.

I had hoped to be able to use this to so that I could send my data to a cousin but I cannot find 'work with queries' under the tools menu. Am I doing something wrong?

Having similar problems to others in not being able to find the family I know are there as I have the certificates to prove it. Reported that streets are missing, not mistranscribed but still only get the reply pointing to their excuses that there are reasons, but they don't give any, as to why some...

Thanks Jane, was forgetting to save before exiting. Just basic rules not being obeyed!!!

I have tried deleting these _FREL and _MREL but they don't stay deleted. Each time I come back to a project there they are again. Is there a way that I can get them to stay deleted?

AJ

Thanks Gerry.
I actually found the list of custom diagrams under the View tab whereas I had been looking for it under the Diagram tab. Don't know why but I expected it to be as the custom reports are where they are under the Report tab.
Very happy now.

How do I use custom diagrams? I have them installed in the custom diagram folder but how do I get to use them? I cannot see a choice for any of them when using the diagram window.

Is this any nearer being done as I have to use other software to create this type of report and I really would like to only use Family Historian.
