Re: Saving Contact Info for Living People

Hi Mike, I have been getting a confusing result... When I click on the "All" tab and then click on the plus sign next to "Contact Info", I see the words "Responsible Party" listed in the place where it should say "Profile". This is not happening on the Contacts tab... Profile reads correctly there. ...

Re: Saving Contact Info for Living People

Thank you for the excellent revised contact tab, Mike. I just installed them all and they downloaded perfectly. And thank you, too, for the query and the report attachments that you developed to get even more use of the contact data. I'm so grateful to you for these very useful additions to Family H...

Re: Married 3x...wrong spouse is listed in couple's box

Thanks Jim and Mike for your input on how to reorder spouses. The reason I am interested in one spouse per box is I have to produce a family tree for a reunion. I'm trying to have it not be so huge. The tree is showing all the ancestors and descendants of my great grandparents. Each of them had 9 ch...

Re: Saving Contact Info for Living People

This is just what I'm looking for. That contact info report looks great, Mike.
Did you create an extra box for the postal code?

Is that Cont: an extra feature, too?

Thanks for all you've done to help!
Warmly,
Patricia

Re: Saving Contact Info for Living People

OK, Mike...won't put DNA under the Contacts Tab. Didn't realize about the _MAIL tag. What I'm trying to do is find a way to list for each cousin, the DNA tests they've taken...the company name and the name of the test...Autosomal DNA, Mitochondrial DNA, or Y DNA., and the test taker's name or ID #. ...

Re: Married 3x...wrong spouse is listed in couple's box

Hi Mike, I'm afraid I still can't get this to work. I''ve tried using the arrows, re-ordering the out of sequence data. Opening and closing the tree...but the wrong spouse is still coming in the property box. On my cousin, Mary, I'm getting her first spouse in the one box per marriage, not her secon...

Re: Saving Contact Info for Living People

Followed your instructions, Mike, and the change worked perfectly :) Thank you for your help, I truly appreciate all your efforts! Wondering if the same procedure could be done where I would switch the label: 3rd email with the label: DNA. I've done DNA testing, and I'd like to log which cousins hav...

Re: Saving Contact Info for Living People

Precisely Mike...I list maiden names for women on my tree, but contact names would reflect current names which often are married names for women. If it's easy to switch the title Info to Name, I'd like to do that. If not, I'll leave it as is. It will still work fine :) And I thought that when I some...

Re: Saving Contact Info for Living People

Dear Mike, THANK YOU!!! I'm so very grateful to you for developing that contact tab. It's just what I need.

Married 3x...wrong spouse is listed in couple's box

Trying to produce a chart for a family reunion. Several cousins had multiple spouses. One had 3 spouses. The current spouse is not the one that shows up in the box when I select one box per marriage. How can I get the current spouse to be the one in the box? My cousin's won't like seeing their curre...

Re: Saving Contact Info for Living People

Hi Mike, I did read through the Help section...but I really don't get it. Plus there's no pictures to illustrate, so I'm not about to make changes I don't understand and risk ruining a new program. I'm afraid I need step-by-step help to do a complex procedure. I think you're right...I need to work t...

Re: Saving Contact Info for Living People

Thanks again Mike,] I appreciate your info but am still a bit confused. Like your idea of a custom Tab on the Property box, but am struggling to understand how to set it up. Followed your steps and when I got to New Tab from the cog menu assigned the name Contact. When I got to the Custom Item Name ...

Re: Saving Contact Info for Living People

Thank You, Mike Tate, for trying to help me with saving contact info. I like your idea of a custom fact with dedicated fields for email, phone, website. I went ahead and created a custom fact called Contact Info. It is an attribute fact. But, I can't figure out how to add field boxes for email, phon...

Saving Contact Info for Living People

Is there a way to save contact info for living people?
And once it's saved, is there a way to generate lists of this info so it could be used for a family reunion contact list?
Thanks for any help you can provide.
