Yes, backed up and proceeded cautiously at first, then became confident enough to move faster. Thank you also for making the plug-in. I could never have eradicated them without it.

ETA, thanks to Calico Pie and Jane Taubman.

The UDF plugin finished its work, after about 45 minutes, very roughly speaking. I had over 1.2 million UDFs, mostly duplicative source data that had already been converted to defined data.

Thank you again for your help.

They are long out of date, so at this point I prefer to remove them.

ETA--and I have been gradually switching to a single fact with conflicting sources attached to the same fact, making notes about significant differences.

Please leave the plugin running for as long as possible to see if it finishes. OK, I'll start it up and go do something else. Do you have some idea where for example those _PRIM tags exist? I realized after I posted the original message that they are fields of different individual and family record...

Have you updated to the latest UDF List plugin Version 1.1 from the Plugin Store? Yes, I am running 1.1. Exactly what are the symptoms? I do get a progress bar. That's all I see--a progress bar. While initially the progress bar moves, it stops moving and stays stuck in one place. This place varies,...

I'm trying to find and eliminate a few uncategorized data fields (UDFs) that are cluttering up my database from a very old import. Unfortunately, when I try to use the UDF list plug-in, FHv7 crashes. I think it's because I have probably hundreds of thousands of these UDFs. So, I'm thinking I could d...

And it worked perfectly! I always forget that I can delete fields in the results tab. Thanks!

Hello, I would like to clear all certainty assessments from source citations. In TMG I used this field for a completely different purpose that I don't want to continue with. In addition I imported some data from another program that was using certainty assessment in a different way. So, at this poin...

Sorry, I thought I had answered the Fact Set question: Census, Custom, Probate Events, Standard. I think I created Census and Probate Events when I was initially exploring the software. Family Records window of CAFT: DIV to <hidden> ANUL and vice versa Individual Records window of CAFT: CHR to BAPM ...

This should give you an idea of what my fact types look like:

Thanks for your reply, Mike. I have been treating my file kind of roughly over the past year or so. Currently, in FH terms, my fact types seem to be almost exclusively <Custom Facts>, even the ones with standard gedcom labels like BIRT and DEAT. So, what I have been using your plugin for is converti...

Hello, I have been using Change Any Fact Tag 2.7 to change a number of alt-birth, alt-death, alt-marriage etc. tags to standard BIRT, DEAT, MARR tags. Then the plug-in just stopped working. It is not populating the Delete and Change buttons, see screenshot 2016-01-17_1351.png What am I doing wrong? ...

A belated thanks for your suggestions. I have been investigating the key features and the "Getting the Most" PDF. I'm still on the fence about buying as I will have to make a lot of changes, although I'm starting to realize that my TMG way of doing things is unique to TMG and I would probably have t...

I would like to search for all the individuals in my project who have more than one birth event. Is this something I could do with a query, or would I need to create a plug in?

I'm a newbie who has read many posts in the FHUG Forum. Thanks!
