Re: V5 property box faulty

All 'Flags' were available under Edit Flags.
I ticked all Flags for one person to no avail.
I tried a different project with the same result.
I am going to delete the Flag Tab and re-write it, shouldn't take too long.
Obviously a strange hick-up.
I will let you know what hapens.

Re: V5 property box faulty

Yes, all flags are used many times, every person is part of a family line and the Census flags are often used several times per person.
I think I am going to have to do what Jane advised and re-write it, at least I shan't have to re-design it.

V5 property box faulty

Hi, I have just upgraded from V4 to V5 on a Windows 7 PC and an extra tab that I had added to the Property box is not working as it did in V4. It revolves around the use of Flags and being able to just click in a box to set the required Flag. The upgraded Property box does not have all the tick boxe...

FH files and the Cloud?

I have been using Skydrive until last month (Jan) when it stuck on 'Processing Changes' which according to the forum is a big problem and is still not fixed after six weeks!! Worst of all Skydrive started to delete some of my files so I have lost trust in the system and have stopped using it. Unfort...

change of name

Yes, I like your version.
I think I developed mine as I thought it might be useful to have the unknowns grouped together. What I have found useful is to have the spouses name attached as per both versions.

Something I have been doing is to create a first name for the unknown Husband/partner and leave the surname blank as follows:- Husband-E-Hine // which equates to the husband or partner of Elizabeth Hine, Husband could changed to partner. I also record multiple husbands as follows:- Husband1-E-Hine /...

Sync Stand alone to Laptop.

I have been using Skydrive for about three months and am impressed with the ease of use.
Because I am saving a lot of non FH data I started to get close to the 7Gb free storage so I upgraded to 27Gb for just £6 per year, quite cheap really.

I have been playing with the Tree Splitter which has saved the new Gedcom file in the same folder as the original. I have not yet moved it into the Project Folder with the associated Media.

I noticed from some of the Forum Posts that members were entering the Census National Archives Reference into the system so I started doing the same thinking that it must be important, but I am beginning to wonder if this is so. Of what use is the reference when it cannot be searched for, eg 1911 = ...

Repository Editing

I find that I have different names for the same repository.
I cant find a way of :-
a) finding the Sources with the various name versions and
b) Merging/Deleting the changed Repository names
any advice would be useful, I can't find anything useful in the Help files.

The path is displayed correctly.
I still cant figure out why the FH Sample Project is displayed but the other projects within the same folder are not displayed.
Has anyone else got the Windows 7 Starter OS, I know that it is a cut down system but I don't know what is missing.
