Peter,

I tested version 1.3 and it does work with all my addresses now.

Thanks!

Bill

Peter, Seems like it is a tough thing to handle all situations. Would it be possible to have an option to put the entire address back together in the report rather than separating out the possibly incorrect 'No.' part into a separate column?  I realize you probably need this in order to sort the dat...

Peter, Really like the report your plugin generates, but I'm getting some odd results.  Here is an example. http://www.fhug.rjt.org.uk/images/uploads/Address.jpg Note that the actual address for the second entry showing on the report is '1016 3rd St' and for the fourth one it is '1105 90th St SW #2 ...

Mike,

I forgot that I included it in the Iowa one.

Jane... maybe to make it less confusing we should eliminate the Iowa (Short) file from the downloads.

Thanks,

Bill

The files I was trying to upload were 83 KB, 1 KB, 22 KB, 31 KB, 9 KB, and 171 KB.

We may never know.

Thanks,

Bill

Since I was unable to get them uploaded, Jane put the census templates out in the download section under Ancestral Sources for me.  Thanks Jane! There are templates for the USA, the states of Iowa, Minnesota, and Wisconsin, and for Norway.  For Iowa there is also one for the short form that sometime...

Mike,

Are you able to attach a file to the upload process without problems?

Bill

Jane,

I guess I had not run across it before. I have sent you an email with the files attached.

Thanks!

Bill

Jane,

OK... I can do that. How do I attach files to an email to you. I don't see a way to do this using the 'send email' icon or using the 'contact admin' link.

Bill

After clicking on upload file, I get the following window.



Why am I getting a different window I wonder?

Bill

Peter, thanks for testing it out.

That isn't the same window I get.

Bill

I tried uploading the file using IE 9 instead of Firefox and got the same result.  I can't attach the file to the upload process, I get the weird window with the ! mark. Is anyone else able to browse and attach a file to the upload process in the Ancestral Sources section of the downloads? You don't...

Oops... accidentily clicked on post message. The window I got this time looked like this: http://www.fhug.rjt.org.uk/images/uploads/Upload31.jpg That isn't the same thing I got before. I thought I did click on OK last time. This time I didn't get an OK. I tried renaming the file to 'Bill_USA.xml' to...

Hmmm... still not working. I go to the AS section of the Download and click on 'Add Downloads' and I get this: http://www.fhug.rjt.org.uk/images/uploads/Upload4.jpg I put in the name and then click on the 'Upload File' link to get the file name. I browse to the file I want and get this: http://www.f...

Jane,

Actually, I did click on the button and I got the pop up window that said it was successful. However, when I then tried to download them, the link didn't work.

I'll try one again.

Thanks,

Bill

Jane,

Just wondered if you had a chance to look at this yet.  Should I just be trying again with file names that have no special characters or is there more I need to do?

Thanks,

Bill

Mike, Yes, the short form is a subset of the long form. Thanks for the ideas, but I guess I'll just use a differentiated Country/Region.  I decided it is too much of a pain in the neck to have to delete the extra columns every time from the text. I'll have to think about the name some more.  I like ...

Nick,

Hmmm... I really like to have the correct year since that is what appears in the drop down.

I guess I'll try using a Country/Region of 'Iowa (short)' and live with that.  The source name will end up having 'Iowa (short)' as part of it, but I think I can live with that.

Thanks,

Bill

I've run across a situation where I need to have two different census templates for the same year for the Iowa state census.  There are two versions, a long and a short version. I can't figure out how to name these.  There are two fields, Country/Region and Year.   It appears the Country/Region desi...

Jane, I see the files I tried to upload are gone from the Ancestral Sources section of the downloads.   Should I just try again?  I can make sure I don't use any special characters or spaces in the file names.   For census templates is there any size limitation?  Any other things to worry about? Tha...

Nick,

Ancestral Source is the best 'user add on' program I've ever run across. Don't know what I'd do without it.

Of course I love Family Historian as well!

Bill

Mike,

I forgot and used a quote mark and spaces in the name.  Hopefully Jane can get it sorted out.

Thanks,

Bill

Thanks for the hint. I notified Jane and hopefully she will be able to straighten things out.

Bill

I tried to upload some census templates into the Ancestral Sources portion of the Downloads page.  However, none of the download links seem to work.  

How can I get these fixed?

Thanks,

Bill

I decided to just go ahead and share what I have. To that end I put out separate census template files for the USA, Iowa, Wisconsin, Minnesota, and Norway. These are now in the Downloads area under Ancestral Sources. Let me know if you find anything wrong with any of the templates. **** There seems ...
