SNAP!

Open FH. Click on File>Statistics.....
This will give you the Path and name of the file in use by FH.

Open AS. Click on Tools>View Log Files...
This will give you the Path and name of the file in use by AS.

They should be exactly the same.

Sorry, wasn't trying to slap wrists.

No umbrage taken, sentence should have read
My wrist is slapped. [wink]

Nick, Tested and replicated fault. When I switch 'Entries' while file is loading in AS at some point it corrupts the file. This time there were 6926 Source's missing. I waited one minute between 'SAVING' in AS and reloading in FH. When I don't change between 'Entries' everything is fine. Please don'...

When openning or reloading AS don't change Entries (Census, Baptism or Marriage) until the file has loaded.

Twice now I've done it and lost over 2000 Source records. I have passed the details and files on to Nick.

Dagwood said: Can I suggest that this may be the same issue I had a short while ago inasmuch as I always preview my posts after typing them out. The preview page is so like a posted message that a couple of times I then forgot to Send them after preview and wondered why they had been 'lost'. Of cou...

Tested. Fault seems to be cleared.

tatewise said: I understand that the problem has only started in FH V5, but it may be due to a change in its software associated with Customised Tabs. Can you please check if the problem still happens with Installation Settings (but first Export all your current Tab Customisations). Also please pos...

johnmorrisoniom said: Have you Updated to vers 5.0.1? I have not been able to replicate what you are getting. However , this (or a similar)fault did exist in certain circumstances on the original release version. 5.0.1 cannot be obtained by using the check for updates on the program, it can only be...

Not sure how you customised Main tab in FH V3, because Tab Customisation option was only added to FH V4!

I've had Bap so long I thought I did it in v3. Sorry.

At this point I will take my leave [wink]

Craig Mollekin said: How do you cause it to happen, Steve? I can't replicate it. Enter a date in any box in 'Main' tab, change to different tab, back to 'Main' and date has disappeared. Or go to any website back to FH and, again, date has disappeared. ALL BEFORE SAVING FILE when date entered. If I ...

My Auto-Save is switched off. In fact never been switched On.

I can replicate the fault anytime I want so fault not random or occasional.

My Auto-Save is switched off. In fact never been switched On.

Chuck in my twopennyworth. Could this have anything to do with 'Auto-Save' ?

tatewise said: Steve, you said the problem happens on the Main tab in Born, Bap, Marr and Died fields. However, Bap does not appear on a default Main tab, and Marr only appears on the Spouse sub-tab. So, have you customised the Main tab? If so, does the problem still occur if you return to Installa...

Craig Mollekin said: Yes, Steve - this would appear to be the same problem as:- http://www.fhug.org.uk/cgi-bin/index.cgi?action=forum&board=v5usage&op=display&num=6230 Thanks for the advice regarding your workaround, although I'm not sure that this will be practical for me. I have a love affair wit...

stbaldock said: After saving the GEDCOM from within Ancestral Sources 3, then switching to FH, you only get notification that the file has changed if you minimise FH (!) Other than this, the file is updated correctly. Maybe a file change should bring FH (and its notification message in particular) ...

I posted a similar problem back in March under 'Date Problem'. It's still occurring. My work round is to enter the date and click on 'Save'.

Downloaded the query from the store. Spot on, thanks. [wink]

tatewise said: After a while that became apparent as I mulled it over during lunch. An alternative Row filter using the same On This Day? Date parameter could be: Condition: Add if Expression: =IsTrue((IsEmpty(Day(['On This Day?'])) or (%FACT.DATE:DAY% = Day(['On This Day?']))) and (%FACT.DATE:MONT...

Is there a Plugin or Query that will find all events that happened 'On This Day'? I enter date '30 Apr' and the output displays all the people that have a Birth, Baptism, School, Marriage, Divorce, Death and any other event on that day. Younger members of the family have asked me for this informatio...

Thanks Tatewise

I have add '=Relationship(FileRoot(),%INDI%,TEXT,1)' to Report Options, which, for me, is fine when printing reports but I don't want the Relationship to appear when Creating a Website. How do I stop it ?
