Filters re Custom Queries.

Jane, I have entered all Event places as Village,County. Is it possible to filter by just using the 2nd place entry in address box?
That is-- Add if Dorset is Birthplace,rather than multi queries based on Villages.
Solve this and you wil be my Valentine !! [smile][smile][smile]

Is it possible to allocate a column to a specific census, e.g. column one =1851, rather than first census to appear in?
