Yes but how do you get to it?

Where do I find the 'favourites' is it Bookmarks?

Is there a way to limit the repository names to the most used rather than going through the whole list to get names beginning with Y?
My tree being over 30,000 now has lots of repositories that are rarely used and mainly one-offs.

Thank you, Mike, once again you've helped me to cut to the chase in simple terms!

This works OK for an individual but is it not possible to use the preferred fact for the whole tree of people as a blanket choice say of the last occupation rather than first? I've got over 30000 people in my tree and this will work even harder!

Where do I find 'preferred facts' in FH7?

Why does FH default to the first census so as to record the person's occupation? Mostly it records them as a scholar? Why can't it default to the last census occupation?

Thank you.

Where can I find Jane's list of Gedmatch by query?

Can the fact DNA report be amended to show the people in alphabetical order?

Thank you, Mike.

I have a fact set called DNA and in there I put the amount of DNA shared. Is it possible or is there a Query that will show all these DNA matches if I ask for it?

Had a reply from CP which says: Just to be clear, you can change the name before you save the file. If you use the technique you have described to save a report as a PDF file ("use Print... (or File > Print...) with the Printer Name: Family Historian PDF?") a window will be displayed with the full f...

Thank you Jane.

Is there a way of indicating that a person was born 'out of wedlock' on AS? Some of my ancestors had illegitimate children, sometimes the father was named, sometimes not.

I didn't realise that CP could access this forum. Therefore I have replied to them referring to this thread.

I wrote to CP:
Print... command PDF filename to be the Project name as it was in FH v6, please.

Thank you Mike, I can see it now. I had a reply from CP which I don't understand which said: If you select Print on the report display, that will take you to the Print dialogue selector and you then select which PDF or real printer you want. In this case the PDF printer driver is not under Family Hi...

I've contacted CP again and got a confirmation from them, Mike.

Lorna where do I 'Save As' custom report?

Maybe it is alphabetical but based on the places in the project.

I posted to CP but they didn't reply.
Another problem is that when I enter my name in the right header in the report it doesn't stay there but after a few weeks, it disappears. Is there a way of making it stay there forever?

Mike, my tree is upwards of 29000 people now and obviously there are a lot of birthplaces involved with them, Hastings is a popular place in my tree but none of the people in the Hunslet census had anything to do with Hastings, the 1st one was born in Bermondsey and the rest in Hunslet.

Yes, I saw that suggestion, Mike, but as I've just tried it, it doesn't work properly or it doesn't for my tree as if I just type in H I only wanted Hunslet (from the previous child's birthplace) but got Hastings instead!

OK I guess it's not possible.

I only want to have a drop-down arrow not a list of places within it. In my case, I find that very often on the censuses, the people that I add have the same birthplace starting with the head down to the last person/child. If there was a drop-down arrow, it would save me typing the same place for al...
