Thanks Mike I have now devised my own Text Scheme and included the phrase <no birth details> and so everything WAS fine until I noticed that in the boxes the persons name is missing to whom he or she is married to. Try as I may I cannot restore this piece of information. what have I done wrong plea...

The Text Scheme that I am using at present is "All events & attributes & rec notes" I have come across names where I cannot find (yet) any birth details. I know that I could find the birth section of the text scheme & to tick the 'no data' box and then write 'no birth details'...

Thank you very much Mike & Roger. I have done what you said Mike and also you Roger, I did not know that was possible.
Thank you both, very best wishes

Good morning all. I am sure that I have asked this question before but a( I can't find it and b) I cannot remember the answer. Could somebody please assist me. The box colours that I am trying to achieve are: Root...White, Spouse...Yellow, Siblings...Blue for male and Pink for female. Thank you for...

Many thanks

Thank you Lorna. Yes I am using Windows XP. I am glad that you suggest re-installing. I was going to write to Jane to ask for instructions. My version 5 was a download but I still have my Licence Details. Whilst I am a little reluctant for this course of action because of 1 or 2 special features (I...

Hello Mike & Lorna. Thank you both for your input. However, I am so frustrated, I have done exactly what you have both said and I end up with the same 4 items. I even went into the 'sample', the Munro's, and the same thing happens. Obviously I have ticked a box or done something somewhere. What...

I have started right at the very beginning having deleted all previous efforts. I apologise for beginners questions which may have been asked previously. In 'fact sets' I want to enter such things as baptism and adoption for starters but all I get is 4 entries: Blessing of marriage, change of name,...

It is with fear & trepidation that I ask this question because I asked it about 10 months ago . Mike Tate kindly gave me the formula in full and instructions where to post it. Unfortunately I cannot find it and so am asking it again.. I wish to show Divorce against the Male & Female so that...

Thank you Mike I'm afraid it did not work for me, obviously I have done something wrong. My efforts were: 1. On desktop double clicked FH 2. Closed Tip of the Day 3. In project window clicked on project to delete and then opened project 4. Clicked File >Project window the first item on the menu 5. ...

[Could somebody advise me how to delete a project from the project window
Thank you

I shall shortly be looking at census returns starting with 1911. I have signed up with Ancestry and hopefully will be using that. Is there a download preformat that I could use for recording the information that I find? I have looked at the downloads in FHUG but there is so much I am somewhat confu...

Many thanks Mike, life does not get any easier does it? But then life would be less interesting. I will stick with what I have and be grateful. I shall have to readdress the problem when I get onto census returns.

Thank you Jane, I did not know about page 2. Another bit to the learning curve
Ron

Thank you all very much. If it were absolutely vital, I would, with the information that I now haven purchase a GRO Certificate. As it is I can live without it.
Thank you all again
Ron

I submitted a post earlier today in the Research Forum addressed to Anne & Jan regarding certificates in Ancestry. I can no longer see this post; has it been moved or considered not allowed?
Ron

Hello Anne & Jan. You have both confirmed that it is possible to get images of marriage certificates from Ancestry and Find my Past and that they contain exactly the same information as a GRO cert would. I am trying to find the Birth record of Ruth M. Kelly. I know when & where she was marri...
