how would you change the equation to use the Preferred occupation, then? thanks

Many thanks, BillH, that's great! If you're interested in the relationship to a particular individual who may not be the root (I had to change my root for a bit, away from myself, because I'm female. I had to change it to a man, either something to do with charting or with queries, can't remember), ...

Me too, I usually delete the second one, but going back thro my mailbox I missed one which was in September last year so it's been going on for some time.

When working with places, in the Place List dialogue box, top right is an Edit... button, which is slightly misleading, as it does not take you to where you can Edit the place, but simply opens the View/Edit Place Details dialogue box, where you have to click another Edit... button, to open the Edi...

Wonderful!
Many thanks

Hi, I've got a query which lists the year of a date of a fact. I want to have a column saying if that year is a census year or not. Is there a way of doing an "in array/list" function, please, something like =TextIf(InArray(%FACT.DATE.YEAR%, 1841, 1851, 1861, 1871, 1881, 1891, 1901, 1911, 1921, 1936...

Hi,
where does one put this xml file please, and is this for FH or AS?
Thanks

Interesting! Why do you choose to use only explicit Birth Dates instead of Estimated, but do use Estimated Death Dates? Have you considered the following more compact function instead of the nested TextIf(...) function: CombineText( , %INDI.CENS[year=1841].AGE%, , " find " ) Also, by using DateAt(1...

Hi Mike L,
I've had a look but can't find where to download CensusMissingAges, could you tell me where to find it, please?
Many thanks

Try https://fhug.org.uk/kb/download/ages-on-census-3/

Thanks so much,Mike, I was looking at queries starting with "Census"

Hi Mike L,
I've had a look but can't find where to download CensusMissingAges, could you tell me where to find it, please?
Many thanks

Thanks Mike L, I'll give that a look

...and 1921 made visible in the Columns

I've noticed that 1921 is included in the Columns but not in the Rows, I think (if I've got it right) =IsTrue((EstimatedBirthDate(%INDI%,EARLIEST,2) > DateAt(1921,6,19)) or (EstimatedDeathDate(%INDI%,LATEST,2) < DateAt(1921,6,19)) or (%INDI.CENS[year=1921].DATE% = DateAt(1921,6,19)) or (%INDI.FAMS>C...

Thanks so much Mike, that's great - and thanks for spotting the typos - oops!

Ooh, yes please!

Hi, So I've got a query which shows a list of people and what years they have censuses for, for each of the census year, with a 'Y' for each cell they have one. What I'd like to do, is also show which years they shouldn't have a census for - ie before born and after death, if I have that information...

Thanks very much Mike, I'll give that a go. From what you've shown I could also probably make the link italic to help it stand out more too. I'd wondered if there was a way to enter alternative text for a link, like in the html anchor tag. or a way of getting it to be treated as one phrase for the l...

Hi, I've created a pdf of a family tree diagram in FH 7, with the added hyperlink in each person's 'box' pointing to where their webpage will be in my website. This worked previously tested on my pc with a short url, but for many reasons the url is longer for where the pages will be on the internet....

Hi Helen,
both great ideas . I did find Estimated Alive At, thanks for telling me how to filter it. I've never looked at the Immediate Family queries, they'll come in handy.
Many thanks

Hi, so, as we get further back in time, families were often quite large (though not all children lived to grow up). I'm wondering how to do a query to work out what ages, given known or calculated birth dates/years, all the people in a family would be on a particular date, of those who are known to ...

Hi, I've found some information from bayanne.info that possibly solves my conundrum of which Gilbert Hay from Shetland my ggg grandmother Helen Gordon married (from what's in Shetland's records there were two possible Gilberts around her age). But so far I have no proof that these people (Gilbert an...

Hi Mike, thanks very much for those tips, I'll give them a go. I'd realised earlier I hadn't really explained things properly... I'm aiming to get a map on my phone that I can look at when I'm out and about so I can look at it and zoom in/out etc when visiting places that have come up in my genealog...

Hi, I'd like to export the locations with their associated facts I have geocoded in FH so I can import them as a marker set to a map so I can check out locations I visit for nearby relatives' facts. Not sure which mapping service yet, I've had problems with google charging me for services I haven't ...

Thank you, I did try searching but missed that, thanks.

Hi, is it just me that's getting when I try and follow an Internet Match to FindMyPast? I had it yesterday and today, and I've restarted both my browser and FH.
I'm on the latest version of FH.
Thank you
