I have in the past used the generic source template and the Military tab in the property box but with the advent of the source templates in V7 I'm anxious to...

Re: Main Tab Configuration

Thank you both for your replies. Am I right in thinking that this is a "lumper" approach to recording GRO entries and that images of the record would have to attached to the individuals media tab? I would still like to have the separate registration boxes as the two places so often vary by...
