Have you got your Family Historian Folder on ONE Drive set to "Always keep on this device"

Hi Nick, Sorry, I was away from my computer all day yesterday. Download was OK, it was when I ran AS for about the fourth time that defender stepped in and deleted (Quarantined) AS. Defender is up to date. I have just unquarantined As, so we will see what happens this morning. I have no idea how to ...

Hi Nick,
On one of my computers windows defender has suddenly decided that AS 7.8 contains the bearfoos. A!ml trojan and has quarantined the program

Hi Nick,
Both problems I reported now appear to be fixed in 7.7.7

Thank You
John

Sorry Nick, Another hiccup introduced with 7.7.6 If census persons are entered using the new ""Tree" method, then the {KEYPERSON} keyword used in the census title does not work. Everything is as expected If the Keyperson is added using the old method (Everyone elsoe can then be added by the "Tree" m...

Hi Nick,

A bug seems to have crept in on latest version. (7.7.6)
I have only tested Census 1939 Register so far, but each of the column headings has had "vbCrLf " appended to it

Are they both signed into the same one drive account?

I have done this, but targeted the entire Calico Pie sub folder in the Program Data Folder

The real Calico Pie folder is on One Drive and can be seen by both other computers that I use (I have 2 licenses)

I currently have 48,107 sources, and I would estimate that all bar 107ish were created using AS. I still have well over 15000 census sources that need converting to Rich text tables On top of that there are many 1000's of citations to redo from when I used method 2 style recording (With or without i...

Mike,

Forgive me if I'm wrong, but after the OP has removed the 1st witnesses, won't the other witnesses "Move up " one place? (Close and re-open of FH could be needed)?
Then all the OP would have to do is re-run the original query again. Then repeat until no self witnesses left.

Regards

I am happy to report no issues at all so far.

Enjoy the weekend

I am fairly certain that this can be achieved with a fact query with a row filter to exclude unless fact place is Null.

I haven't git FH available at the moment to give you the exact settings.

On the Further info tab you have added someone as an associated person (Witness or minister perhaps), but not saved that change.

I would heartily recommend "Biting the bullet" and re- do your data entry with AS. As will ask whether and how you want to update the existing data. I started my journey back in 1999 on Sierra's "Generations" which I did like a lot. Looking for something better, I came across FH (Then on Version 3) ...

To re-link the "Not found" file, click on the red "File not found" item, navigate to where the file is and select it and select OK (I think) , file will then be correctly linked.

Mike - I just noticed that he used your plugin to invoke AS, which will open with the PROJECT , IF a project is in use.

It is only opening a Gedcom, therefore the OP is NOT using a project

- using the "Ancestral Sources Data Entry" plugin in FH opens AS with the correct GEDCOM (not Project) and opens the correct screen (Census/Baptism etc)

It should open the project, unless you had only opened a gedcom not a project, which would explain why the project options are greyed out.

Nick, If you will be updating the add image to source feature, can you add the ability to select the source by it's ID?. This would then mean that with an update to Mike Tate's plugin then the source could be pre-selected in FH. I use this feature quite often to update the 1939 Register images when ...

When you go to add to the new census grid AS will ask you do you want to overwrite the existing entry. If you UNTICK the box, then AS will create a new entry with the new details.

When choosing configure columns on the source records tab. In the left hand side of the window scroll right down to the bottom and choose <Other...> (Very last item) to add to RHS. The add Column dialogue opens, click on <<Insert Data Ref... and Author can be chosen from there. Add your own choice o...

There is a quick and easy way, as has already been mentioned, when pasting the text, Right click and chose paste unformatted text.

Just a thought about using "Desktop" as your export folder. If you choose to empty the folder then all of your desktop shortcuts would be deleted, some of which can't, hence why the plugin is freezing

Hi Nick, every once in a while I get a similar error on windows. It Only happens if I am in the census convert window, and AS thinks that FH has been updated, I get the error when AS tries to reload the file. I will email the debug info next time it happens. As an aside the census convert window goe...

As you do use the link feature, after the source is saved, go back into the text in FH and edit each link and change it to auto. Then the link will show the same as whatever is the name in the focus/ Record window.

JohnCulley, Please see my post about mapped drives. It is only during install that AS cannot see mapped drives, so untick the "Launch Ancestral Sources" option if you choose to re--install. When 1st run AS can then see your mapped drives (I run all my FH projects on Drive R: on all my computers. Mak...
