Re: How to handle places

I'm not sure if it would be what you are looking for, but I have a couple of custom queries that might help. They are called People born in specified place, People married in specified place, and People who died in specified place. You can specify any portion of the place and it will report the ind...

Re: How to handle places

At least it's something they're looking into, which is good enough for me. This isn't a major issue for me, but more flexibility in how we can display information is always a good thing. There are probably a lot of issues to take into consideration when implementing something like this, but hopefull...

Re: How to handle places

Thank you for your reply. I can't really say that this is a requirement, more of an investigation into the possibilities and limits of FH.

Re: How to handle places

Thank you for the replies. The query system is by far the most impressive feature I've seen in any genealogy software, and I'm looking forward to using it. I'll see if I can come up with something that suits me, and I'm sure i'll come up with more questions as I keep using FH. :)

Thanks again.

How to handle places

Hi, I have just recently discovered FH, and so far it seems way better and much more customizable than any other genealogy software I've used, but I do have a few concerns. I'm have trouble finding an effective way to deal with places since they're not stored in a database. I guess I'm wishing I cou...
