DBAMorse said: Greetings, can anyone suggest how to record documents I've discovered that relate to a relative's membership to the Freemasons.  Have scanned them (the documents not the relative) but not sure how to incorporate the information into FH4. Many thanks in advance Derek Don't forget to h...

I managed to clear the fault today but I've fiddled with so many setting on my PC I don't know how I cured it.

Had to go out so shut down. Booted up, tried a test download and bish, bash, bosh, there was the test file sitting on my desktop. [smile]

Do the Munro's, Peabody's and co., get appearance fees ? [smile]

Research phoned this morning to discuss fault and request remote access to my Laptop. Spent 2 hours watching them go through my system, it was amazing. Pointer flying around and screens popping up all over the place. All the time getting a running commentory from the guy on the end of the phone. Old...

Microsoft support team sent me an email yesterday with instructions to try. Emailed back stating fault not cleared. They have just emailed me telling me fault has been passed to Microsoft Research.

PeterR said: Have you tried Google Chrome browser - I've been using it for several months now and find it much better than IE8.  Admittedly I'm on XP Home and your problems may be more to do with W7 than your browser.  But I recommend Chrome anyway.

No error message.

Downloading same file over and over for about 30 minutes.

Tried Firefox but couldn't load the Ancestry Enhanced Viewer, going round in circles. [frown] Tried Opera, downloaded file ok but didn't like the Browser. [rolleyes] So I'm still stuck with IE8 but now have a bit better understanding of the problem. [frown] Thanks for your help. I've emailed Microso...

Protection mode has always been on.

This problem started on Thursday.

Example: I'm downloading from Ancestry to C:UsersSteveFamily HistoryBMDMumMarriage.
Have been using this setup for years on Xp and for the last few months on WIN7, (which is giving the problem). IE8 on both PC's.

Hope some one can help. When I download files from the Internet to my C: drive they don't show in Windows Explorer. When I search C: the file is not found. If I try to resave the file name appear's and I get the Overwrite message. I've found a temp work round by saving to a USB stick listed as F: th...

Thanks Jane.

Jane said: What option are you using for the location of Sources, if you have the 'At End Of Report' set then there will not be a name as you could have selected more than one person for the Report. On my set up that's the only way I can get the Name to not show on the Source Page, which makes sens...

When generating Narrative Reports, Ancestors or Descendants by Generation, the Header shows the persons name on the Generation pages but is removed on the Source pages.

Is this an known issue or is there something wrong with my setup ?

The first reported case of 'I was only following orders' or what is now called the Nuremburg defense.

Olie didn't rest peaceful either and couldn't speak for his own defence [smile]

Alegdly due to my ancester Daniel!

Did Daniel lose his head after the Reformation ?

I'd be happy with that.

If you're in the 36th year does that mean that 36 years haven't passed yet so that it would refer to the previous September 1684?

I see where your coming from. Anything from 1649 to 1650 would have been in his 1st year of reign. Yes I like that !

I have received a Will which starts with the usual preamble about 'being of sound mind' then goes on to state 'on the six and seventh day of September in the sixth and thirtieth year in the reign of our Sovereign Lord King Charles the Second.' King Charles II came to the throne on 29 May 1660 and di...

Gerry Newnham said: Nick, You may have considered this already but when you do launch the BMD version of AS, users may have entered up the basic facts as I have (eg date/place of baptism, residence, etc) but not yet linked the source and/or image. I have a backlog in expectation that AS will make t...

My preferences

1. Baptism
2. Marriage
3. Birth Cert

For my twopence worth I can't see what all the fuss is about, it's not as though the forum is heavily used. And yes I do use other Forums that use the format stated by 'Broadstairs'.
