Re: Reports and Hyperlinks

Taking your last paragraph first: your comment is fair, and you are probably right that I should add transcribed detail and any notes to the proposed report. As I have absolutely no HTML at all I can only send what I think is the script that is correct. I do this by right clicking 'Inspect' and this...

Re: Reports and Hyperlinks

I think I need to go back and do it all again from scratch and see if I can get a different result. However here is an example of the detail of what I'm about (I hope): There may be 3 or 4 superscripts for a fact. Each one takes you to a small photo at the back of the project (or wherever you've dec...

Re: Reports and Hyperlinks

Apologies for not providing clear information, however you are correct: I am using the Family Tree CD/DVD feature. Thank you for pointing out the (now rather obvious) fact that the whole fact cannot be hyperlinked. I have read through the Knowledge base which I did, indeed, find very useful, and am ...

Reports and Hyperlinks

I've been using FH for about 3 years and have a large family archive of various materials now. I am continually frustrated in NOT being competent to edit the Report outputs to achieve a presentable report. I want to produce 4 seperate CDs, one for each grandparents line. I can get these using the re...

Re: Reports: Adding surname meanings etc..

Ok....thanks very much for the detailed description of how to achieve the desired result. I'll have to work my way through the replies slowly as I'm pretty new to this prg. If I get stuck I'll come back, if you don't mind. 7th July: Further to the above - it was simple to follow your suggestions, an...

Reports: Adding surname meanings etc..

Hi, I would like to find a way of adding some background history to the family reports. I have added a number of surname histories to the file, also a number of descriptions of houses. Is it possible to (and how to) add these to the relevant reports but without repeating them for every individual wi...

Property Box - Occupation

Maybe I'm having a senior moment.... Problem: 'Occupation' in the Individuals Property Box reads 'Scholar' from his first census entry. If I change this to 'Doctor' this changes the census entry as well (so he's a doctor at 10 years old). If I delete 'Scholar' it deletes the census entry for occupat...

Re: Source text - terrible mistake

Hmm - I reckoned that was the case...for some reason I thought that the data would be stored in a local AS database as well. So I've been religiously adding the register date, witnesses etc and have 'lost' that aspect of the detail I know it's not 'important' as the original is there. I did read the...

Source text - terrible mistake

I'm a new user, and have made a silly error which I'm wondering if there's an easy fix for: I've entered about 60+ births/deaths/marriages using AS and, as I didn't understand the importance of adding source text before saving the records, ignored the warnings that I had not added it. Consequently t...
