Bilko I've tried out what you've said and I now see it working, so thanks for the persistence. I've made the [1+] syntax work with a simple query of type FACT, but also I'd been attempting to extend the logic within queries of type Individual e.g. %INDI.NAME[1].SOUR[1+]>% contains [''] and it's a qu...

Peter I've found the same thing, I think FH ignores the [1+] and defaults to the first item it finds.  I've dug around in the online help (Help-->Family Historian Help) and have now discovered this '[1+]' type of syntax (look for 'looping' in the Search). It does the job I want but only for text tem...

Thanks very much for the quick reply - that [1+] thing looks just like what I need, I'll experiment with it.

I've used FH very happily for a couple of years now but only just started writing queries.  I find I naturally want a query language to let me ask a question such as 'Go get all notes linked to individuals and, once you've done that, filter the results so that you return to me only those notes which...

Currently it's a lot of clicking to enter info on an Individual in the Properties di...

It'd be great to have a shortcut key/key combination that is equivalent to clicking the '>' would be equally handy. As a user of Internet Explorer and Firefox (and because you mention IE in the manual when discussing these buttons) I'd vote for Alt+Left Arrow for Go Back and Alt+Right Arrow to Go Fo...

I feel FH would be more user-friendly if there were more Windows-like features to it. Examples are greater use of right-click context menus and drag-and-drop functionality, but I don't mean all the colours and soft corners and fading menus and cosmetic stuff, or bloating things with loads of functio...

I'm interested in tracing the ownership of possessions in my family tree but can't see how to enter possession data so I can track it simply.  I'd like to be able to enter the possession once and create links from it to all the owners. My best guess to date is to create each possession as a multimed...
