Dear Janet I have downloaded and used various plug ins. The otherday I searched on line to see if there were any updates and was told I had none. I had difficulty in finding the plugin store It does not appear on the main menu. When I eventually found the store it said I had no plugins installed whi...

And who decides when a mail is no longer 'new' please ?
Thanks for this help

Dear TimeTreeby
I would be grateful if you could upload your queries
Thanks

Yes I record Census data as (for example) 30 Mar 1851 I only use:- Date, Age and Place boxes and sources I record under notes I have tried this with 1851 and it only gives me a long list of names and no other columns. It would be a good idea if you could upload for me and I could then use as templat...

Thanks
It is fine now.
It does not work because I provide in the Fact Census boc a precise date
ie 3 Apr 1881
What do I alter to reflect this precise date rather than year ??
Thanks again

Dear TimTreeby Thanks the second column Heading Expression Dates =LifeDates2[,STD] is not recognized when I key it in ?? Also would i need to create a new query for each Census Date since this one is for 1851 and just alter expression Thanks I am a complete duffer in Queries. Would it be possible to...

Thanks
As in queries we have Standard and custom queries.
Will Calico be writing any plugins as 'Standard' or is it left to the Techies on line to produce Customs plugins.

Tatewise Thanks for your helpful and speedy response. I have tried AS but not into using it with all the data I have got. I was hoping that as each census has been corrected trnscribed in Census fact with its correct date that a query could be written to show all names collated againt the specific c...

What is the difference between a plug in and a query.
I can see that both can achieve the same result ??

Under each person where applicable (a) I enter facts (b) I click on Census (c) I enter in date box census date eg 6 June 1841 (d) I enter in place book the address (e) I enter in age box the age of the person from the census. So for example in 1871 I want to see a list of the persons living at xxx a...

Is there :-
(a) a report
(b) a Query
(c) a plug in
that will produce a report/list of all persons living at a selected adress each census year please ??
Thanks[frown]

I have run the Fact Problem Report. On printing in Landscape mode, although there is sufficient room on the right side the Warning heading data is not wide enough to see all the warning. Is there any way to extend the width of the warning please ?? Additionally some of the problems appear to be repe...

Thanks Jane Is this before I save to pdf?? I create the diagram ancestor/descendant then add the text boxes and fonts (I have not saved yet) Then before I do the pdf in landscape I need to set up the look by making sure I do not have a huge top margin. I left clicked the corner of the page....nothin...

I am setting up an ancestor/descendant pdf chart.
I notice that the top margin ie the space at top of diagram pdf is too large. I have used the hand but it only moves up the diagram and the slider bar and position remains same. I need to move whole chart right up to the top
Thanks

Thank you ALL of you for your help.
I have noted that the Rootsweb address is correct and thank you Jane for adding me back in again.
I have been with AOL and FHUG for many years and never had this problem before.

Thanks
My concern was (1) Have I been unsubscribed ?
(2) how can I receive an email to myself ??

Today I received an email with my own email address on!! On being curious that I did not send myself an email I opened it and it was selling me some pills. Then I received a message purporting to come from Family Historian Users saying 'you have been unsubsribed from the Family Historian Users List'...

Thank you Jane & Tatewise for bearing with me.
The last 3 lines of Tatewise in the end so so simple thanks a great deal. I had not thought of deletion.
A wonderful service as usual.

Thanks I tried Dropbox and had problems. I have various backup facilities Memory sticks Additional Hard Drive. I know I can do a FULL Project backup on standalone thru V5 The situation is then to RESTORE this Project Backup on Laptop. Will it say (if I do this every few days after more entering) thi...

Now I have installed V5 on my laptop and on my standalone. I enter all my data on my standalone. Then to save double entering can I import the saved Project file onto the Laptop? If so what happens when this happens for the 2nd 3rd time etc. Surely the Project file name will be the same. Will the la...

Thank you
It seemed queer that exactly '1000' files were produce a nice round amount
I have 1132 records 406 family records 125 Multimedia records Note 96 Submitter 1 Source 91.
How does the figure of 1000 get produced is there any way of checking this ??
Thanks
Sorry for being stupid
John

After over installing version 5 onto 4.13 I decided to do a full proct file backup.
I tdid so in my default backup file successfully but .....
it showed a bar backing up 1000 records out of 1000.
I am worried because I have some 1319 records.
Is this OK please
Thanks
