Dave, can you reply to your ticket and mention the Source Templates corollary?

Calico Pie typically just reply in that way.

Re: Bug In Research Notes Window

Re: Check Installed Plugins Against the Store

I think that is because the List All Citations plug in is listed as version 1.6 but the version number inside the plug in still reads 1.5

Birth Date without Source - is there a quick way to update them

Hi everyone, Many moons ago when I started researching my family history, I entered a great many records with a birth date of "Q1 1936" or similar, I failed to record a source. For instance, now, if I was entering one I would put "Q1 1936" then add the source "GRO - Birth Reference" I have several h...

Desktop publishing options?

Hi Adrian,

Have you thought about trying Open Office, it is totally free, compatible with MS Office. Not sure it is any better than Word, but nothing to lose by trying it :-)

Read about it and download it from here

Family Tree Maker conversion

The reason it was so large is that there were 69 embedded images, these have been extracted and saved separately to the Gedcom file.  I do not know of any way to get the file into Family Historian with the links to the media preserved. Though I can tell ...
