Family Historian User Group

Could some kind soul help me to write a new query for Census data. We already have many such queries, but I would like a query to ONLY show the missing data. That is if they qualify they should only show the missing year(s). To design there would be across the columns :- Date..Name...Birth date.. Ma...

Hi Jane
To be a liitle more clear
Often queries are constructed thru help by yourself or Tatewise for a particular person or search
They never get added to the download queries list
Is this not possible ?
Thanks
John

Yes I have read this but it appears to be a little beyond me and several I have tried writing fail and then I have asked for help.
Regards

It would be nice to start a specific forum just dealing with writing new queries and help in writing. Then to add to download query list.

Jane said: 1. Autorun can be problematic with Windows 7 dependant on your settings, personally I always turn off autorun on any PCs I use. One work around is to add an html page to the root directory call clickme.html or similar with a link to the index.htm page in the folder this has the advantage...

The Autorun does not work because the start file does not work.
This used to work in XP3.
I don't care about the autorun because normally you can click on start. The start file does not work at all I have tried all the tricks.any suggestions please ??
Thanks for all the rest of the info..

I have 2 problems :- Problem 1. When writing to CD the importing person can read all the reports and see all of the pictures BUT :- autorun does not work ..I have checked and this points to the start file. The start file does not work I have tried compatabilty mode all administrator rights and even ...

Thanks Yes

Columns I said Individual ie %INDI%
I take it that brings all persons into the database

Thank you Jane
Yes I did read about pools.
What is the point then of the Orphans query ??
I thought it would return a result of children with either no parents or only one parent.
To write a new query as suggested what rows and what columns are required please
Thanks

I recently ran a Standard query 'Orphans' I was amazed to find so many in my database and duly investigated. According to help menu an orphan is someone who has not been linked to 3 other persons. In many of 'my orphans' they are linked by birth to a father and mother and other reports show as such ...

You have been VERY helpful thanks again

Thanks have looked but I have done everything correct. Pictures appear correctly in Ancestors Diagrams, Descendant Diagrams, and focus windows. What I want to achieve is to view & print Individual Summaries with the preferred photos and all of the others that appear in the focus window. The same wit...

I recently purchased the FH book. Very good. I was not aware that up to 6 photos could be inserted etc into reports.I have a folder of photos just with Family tree photos in as my default. At the moment I have a photo in my Ascendant and Descendant trees no problem. I have NOT ticked the boxes for e...

sorry much finger keyboard problems.
I would rather exclide than have an n/a result.
Thanks

Tatewise Thanks again for your help I realise that where I have no Birth or death date in a record this still shows on the result. What is the way to exclude all persons who have neither a birth or a death date please Yes I will look at Kinsfolk census queries but I would prefer not to look at the r...

Thank you Tatewise just what I needed very concise for a beginner like myself. Also helped for me to understand. One question though .. (1) Does this work with whole year dates like 1841 or does it need a precise date eg 31/12/1840 etc ?? (2) Does it work where an 'approx' date or date range has bee...

OK that goes in ok now...THanks a lot. How do I get the next line you suggested : exclude if %INDI.BIRT.DATE% greater than 1911 I cannot find from the button the combination of the DEAT & BIRT, also tried typing and does not work. The point of the exercise was to produce the Custom_Missing_Years_191...
