Thank you Jane, still not sure about the easiest way to do it but will have a go, never had to do it in Version 3.

Still playing around with Version 4 after updating from Version 3.2 and just wondered why some of my photographs are just marked in the property box of certain individuals with a cross. Have I done something wrong and if so, is there an easy way to delete these photos and start again or to enable th...

Thanks Jane, will have another look at it

I have just received my upgrade to Version 4 and am enjoying finding my way around again with the extra things you can do.  I have made another tab in the property box like Jane did - Church Events and wanted baptism, marriage, burial and cremation. Does anyone know if there is a reason that I canno...

A great big thank you Jane, you have helped me and many more, in your own time and your commitment to this site is very much appreciated by us all.

I add a few more cheers to the many you have already.

THANK YOU

I have been counting the days for the upgrade to Version 3.2 since January and it has been disappointing to have it keep getting put back, but now there is light at the end of the tunnel, we will soon be using Version 4!!!

Please can anyone tell me what is the best way to save a diagram, in order to email it to a family relaltive. I tried saving as a jpeg but it said the file is too large, (somewhere around 520 people, but with quite a bit of info in each box. Any suggestions would be very welcome, thanks in advance. ...

Cassie I received this programme for Christmas as an alternative to Family Tree Maker and I am so glad I did. Just take your time and work through the tutorial, I felt like that at first, couldnt decide whether I liked it or not but I am finding new and more helpful things every day. I am still find...

Oh thank you so much Jane, you are so helpful

It is very much appreciated

Marilyn

I have managed to sort out how to create a new query but cannot create one with all the occupations of an individual, even if they have had various occupations throughout their life it will only show one. Please can anyone advise me what I am doing wrong, or is there an easy way to do this. Thanks f...

Thanks Jane, thats a great help. Thank you so much for all your help, it is very much appreciated.

Marilyn

Thanks for that Jane, have now managed to print with your help but would really like to save to a spreadsheet so I can filter out places etc., and reorganise. Is this possible.

Thanks again

Marilyn

I have successfully managed to customise the records window with the columns of my choice, through reading the instructions on here, although I cant find a way to print it.  The print and print preview is greyed out. Am I missing something or is there a simple way do a print out of the records windo...

Thanks Jane, will have a go that way.

Marilyn

Please could some kind person talk me through how to create a custom query on Family Historian.  I seem to get so far then am  totally confused with the instructions. I am trying to create a query for all individuals who ever lived at a certain address and another one for all individuals married, ba...

Thank you Richard and David, it is a lot clearer now and easier to get to, I know it links the census to the person, but thought it may link the image too with all the normal multimedia.

Thanks a lot for your help

Marilyn

Just received Family Historian for Christmas and love finding my way around it. There is just a little puzzle I cant get my head round, despite reading the instructions over and over again, if anyone could advise, I would be very grateful. I type information in on Gedcom Census, save it and load an ...

Thanks Jane and Nick, sorry to be a pain, your advice is much appreciated.

Marilyn

Managed to sort this, the Gedcom Census file wasnt the one I was using in FH, found the answer on another thread.

Thanks

Marilyn[smile]

Please can anyone help, just a bit puzzled. I have downloaded version 6.0.6 of Gedcom census and have just started to try it out. I have put a family in the 1861 census, about 8 people and attached an image of the census, (it said something like get new image and attach to person in Family Historian...

Thanks Jane, I might do it in report form instead.

Thanks for your suggestion

Marilyn

Please could anyone tell me if it is possible to print out a diagram of any individual in book form, i.e. where it says continued on another page etc. I did this last year on Family Tree Maker as I made a book file of each family and now I have found out more information these all need updating.  If...

Thank you, not well up on external links as yet still learning

Thanks again

I have a dedicated folder with all my family history files on the desktop, this is backed up every time the computer is turned off. At the moment I have my Family Historian file on the desktop, but if you move it into the family tree folder and try to run it from there I lose all the pictures.  So I...
