I bought a new pc in April, now the AS function of adding media seems to be very slow, it used to be nearly immediate but now it takes several seconds. Is this because my tree is so large (32K plus people) or that AS doesn't know where to find the media?

As you suggested Mike I displayed the file links and shown here as well as broken links, should I auto repair them:
The FH projects also shown here

Yes Mike that worked, now I've the sample and my project in the project window and made mine the default.
If I remember correctly, Mike, did you tell me once that all the media is within my project? If that is so I shouldn't need to keep a separate folder on my pc for media?

Hi Lorna, The sample sems to have disappeared. I've given up on Google Drive as my tree is no longer as large as it was. When I go to C Drive and Documents it shows initially 3 items including the sample project, and, when I click on the 1st item FH projects it shows FH and my project, see the follo...

Since I bought a new pc, Mike I don't have an E Drive but C which is 500GB SSD and D which is a 2TB portable drive.
So following your instructions, I went to Documents found FH Projects, clicked on next one called FH Projects and it now shows my Rosser project but no others?

I recently started a small tree and even though I didn't set it as the default tree, it came up instantly when I opened FH7 today. I browsed for my actual project and found it but it doesn't show in the Project window?
See:

Currently my family tree has reduced in size so that it's no longer above 15 GB but below 10 GB so seems to me that I no longer should be paying for GD. In any case I can't seem to get it to sync my project anyway. I think you told me that all the media is in the project so presumably there is no ne...

Thank you Mike that works excellently.

Mike I was baffled to start with! I just use the DNA fact as seen in the 'fact list' (but am unsure as to how it works) please see:

Mike, as far as I know I don't have Jane's gedmatch DNA in my lists. I've got 3 types of DNA in my list as you can see here:

Yes it's very simple Mike except that in the list I don't have a ' DNA' or even a 'DNA note'?

I'm more baffled by those notes than before!

How can I show DNA matches in the Records window? I have a DNA in the Event of Fact types as well as a note saying DNA Match.

Excellent Mike, just what I wanted to do, so I guess I'll have to go through the early source records from 1-3000 to pick out the individual's file and edit the address as shown. Nick, I don't know how AS collected the long address line, I only enter the main town, county, etc in the 1st line and th...

Once again you've lost me, Mike! See here:

How then, Mike, do I access the actual record addresses which are shown in the fact box?

I can get the records in order but how do I view each one so as to and it if necessary? How to apply the property box?

How can I list the source record numbers from 1 to say 3000 and show what each one says?
It seems that at some point AS has added the whole address including town, county and country in the address line as well as in the place line? If I can see each one I can amend it.

Thank you Mike, that is exactly what I was referring to!

The fill down idea would work. However, I'm not talking about all the places in my tree just the ones in the family censuses on AS; usually most of thechildren are born in the same place....

Yes I agree with that but just seems more convenient to have a drop down arrow in my opinion.
Also I wonder if there is a shortcut method of finding most used sources?

Yes I know how to do the widening of the lines but want to know if I can keep it permanently, so that each day that I open it, it will be already widened?

Actually I'm referring to the 'Select Repository....' box which used to give the long actual names but has now shortened them.

When adding a citation, is it possible to amend the list of resources to stay as a lengthy text rather than cut off after a few letters? As in GRO instead of GRO of London.

It would be great if you could add a down arrow for 'where born' on the census templates as most people in a family at the census were born at the same place? Saves a lot of duplicate typing or copying and pasting.
