Mr. Tatewise or any of the other experts out there. I did not know of the UDF List Plugin until I read your comments regarding exporting a gedcom in 21542|Issue with Export Gedcom plugin v5.2 . I don't have the issue with the gedcom; yet, but I installed the UDF List plugin, and to my horror, I have...

Thank you Mike for this Plugin. It really helps in cleaning up Place that were not corrected by the Convert Legacy Places plugin. I have two questions, one related to this plugin specifically. Would it be possible to have check boxes, and a select all, buttons for the Tidy Name Places, and then a Se...

BillH, fhtess65, Teresa, Jane, MikeTate, Mark1834, and all others with kind replies, I place across the pond is the Florida Panhandle where it is wet and blustery, but out of any danger this time around. Shortly after posting, I found the Help article on Date Entry that provided the information I wa...

Family Historian is a British product, and obviously caters to Brits. That's understandable, but I struggle with the date format when entering dates as I live across the pond and the format here is different. The genealogy program I just stopped using allowed multiple date entry formats that was sel...

Thank you again Mike, Searching for the correct text that you pointed out, did the trick. They do in fact exist in FH, and I will check Legacy tomorrow. I'm guessing that there are Ascii Codes for those characters? Regardless, I have some work to do to clean the files before attempting to create a b...

Thank you Mike, You are absolutely correct, the errors are not HTML, but formatting codes. Snippets are attached of the error(s) in question, and of the Family Historian Search, as well as a similar search in Legacy. Neither <<b>>, nor <<i>> are found in either file. The Book I created was generated...

Mike, What appears as HTML is in the body of the book text. I attempted to attach snippets of them in my original post, but all I get is . I see no way to attach a file, but here is a small sample of the errors. They appear first on page 4 of my Ancestry section as follows: John Arthur (Art) Trevith...

Yesterday I "Published" a Book for the first time using FH 7.0.15, and was amazed at the detail of the results, and that it was 281 pages in length. I then started perusing it and noticed that it is leaving HTML code in places. For example <<b>>Mark<</b>>, and for italics and tabs. I used the defaul...

I started using Family Historian v.7 several months ago, and though the GUI is dramatically different than what I'm used to (might be some European logic going on there) in Legacy, it appears to have some serious thought behind its development. It also support Plugins that are Open Source, a huge pl...
