To support Gowermick I have done the same in my project and differentiated the Un-related people by adding a suffix like, Joe /BLOGGS/ (U-R), then add create a flag to record them as Unrelated.
They can then be displayed in a named list.

Thanks Mike.

Appreciate your help.

Hi,

I'm astonished when I tried inserting my custom diagram icons back.
V7 looks like you can't browse through your Windows folder and attach your customised icon.
This surely can't have been overlooked by C.P. ?
Any suggestions.

Thanks

In the Property window (for each person), go to the Media tab.
All your media items for that person will be listed.
Select the record you no longer want to display on the Focus widow.
Click the 'Edit' icon.
Tick the option, Exclude from Diagrams.

Appreciate the last update Mike,

It got a result (i.e. diagram icon) when the place name was ",England". Which does the job nicely.
Great work.
Thanks.

Mike

Thanks for your efforts Mike. Even with the updated expression, the string sadly reads as a non-valid expression. I will carry on using the record flags and queries, which produces the right results. I thought using Expressions with the diagram boxes would have made the process more automatic, but t...

Thanks Mike Aware of this rule with the likes of Excel. Hopefully, it won't be long until Mike Tate has come up with a re-working. I hope where ever the county name is (i.e. in Field 1, Field 2, so on), it will work. Otherwise, it's a case of keeping the record flags, and running the query each time.

Thank you Mike,

I will indeed look at the knowledge base article.

Makes sense, regarding the redundant census year.
I've tried cutting and pasting the expressions you've kindly made, but for some reason it still shows it's invalid, is it anything to do with the 2nd closed bracket ?

Cheers.
Mike

Hello, Apologies if this has been covered before, I think the nearest post may have been : 15078|Diagram Icons: Flags -> Expressions I've been trying to write an expression so I can use the census dates and places. So I have a different icon for a 1911 census in England and another for Canada, etc. ...

Thanks for your reply, Mike.

Hi,

Would you please advise what the significance of the Named List editable field, by right clicking, selecting properties and making it "Record editing enabled".

Thank you.

Its quite possible you may see an end or gradual decline in the number of free weekends to access records.
This would be a sad day should this occur.

Double click on the blue Focus square in the top left hand corner of the Focus Window. The Focus window should then revert back to 50:50 with the Properties box on the right hand side of the screen. On second thoughts, this doesn't work, it just brings the property box on the right hand side to the ...

Hi,

Have you by any chance created a custom fact called Death 2 ?

Create a new individual query.
On line two add : "=RelationPool(%INDI%)"
Those not in Pool 1, should be orphans.

I found this by going on the 'Help menu'.

Mike, Thanks for your help, this does the job nicely.

Hi,

I'm looking for a simple query which shows the source certainty assessment note field for each fact.
Would someone please point me in the right direction whether it's a source query, fact query, individual query; along with the query label.

Thanks.

Mike

Thanks for your advice Jane.

I'll give it a go.

Mike.

Hi, Apologies if this has already been brought to the forum members before. Normally, in a person's records window, you would see the shaded lines, for example, their mother's/father's deaths . Which I think is great. When you add Witnesses to an event using the 'gear'symbool. The event name is then...

Hi Colin,

I'll have a look - thank you.
Best Regards

With the free weekend at Find My Past, I've found one of my ancestors 'emigrating to Buenos Aires in 1912 & returning again to Buenos Aires in 1919. My ancestor is Charles Gordon HOLLAND, born Great Bowden Leicestershire, 1885. 1. I can't see any return sailings back to the UK on Find My Past or Anc...

Thank you Jane.

Much Appreciated.

Morning All,

Is there a simple way of running a query an individuals grandchildren count, the more or less the same way as a child count ?
Many thanks in advance for the advise.
Mike

Thanks again for your reply Mike.

Appreciate the advice a lot.

Mike, The expression was fantastic - thanks. Just trying to understand your advice on getting there the other way : Quote That could be obtained by clicking the <<Insert Data Ref... button and choosing: Individual > Events > Probate > Source> > Note ( not (Note) ) Unquote I was a bit lost. I'm guess...
