Re: PLAC and ADDR Records; Sorting

here is the thing, if I do that split the text which I dont see how to do on the fact place records to the part 7 +, + part6 +,+ I know that if part 1 or part 2 is in a place record greater than blank, where they go part7, 6,5,4,3,2,1 then it really belongs in an ADDR record and modified, which need...

Re: PLAC and ADDR Records; Sorting

right, its a distinction without a difference, in that none of them address the issue that I am fundametally converting both PLAC and ADDR in the records I am selecting, and its a great number of them. if its simple mispellings and so on the work with records, place, address does close enough for wh...

Re: PLAC and ADDR Records; Sorting

OK, new problem. Usually if I have an ADDR in my PLAC, I have no ADDR. So, in my case if I sort by 6th part, I can go towards the bottom of the work with window, and find most of my records at the bottom, but...go to record to fix, and I cant get back where I left off, is there some trick or am I ba...

I saw it. yet you have constantly maintained it sorts correctly. It does not. I have done some more sloshing around, and there exists an additional problem. if it runs into (and the editor does not help with this at all in FH, because it doesn't correct them or show them correctly all the time...

Re: PLAC and ADDR Records; Sorting

No, it doesnt, not any way I can get it to work.

Key:

(Last + 2nd Last +3rd Last......nth Last) thats the reverse. and same forward would be nice.

is there a way?

The consternation with select to merge came from the fact the roll keys become inoperable or unusual, have to use the slider.

PLAC and ADDR Records; Sorting

There must be some answer to this, and I am not finding it. I bring up either list from the work with data window.. I reverse order, and would expect them to sort alpha by field on all fields, so that each field is in order in the whole and of itself, simple case: CAN, CA, , , , CAN, CA , , , , Shou...

Re: Is there a plugin to manage PLAC and ADDR?

That plugin still doesn't do what, i need, I need every ADDR or ever PLAC (the real ones from the records in reverse order), so that I can fix the actual field itself in the INDI.

child count on family

typical situation, I have people who have multiple families I need to put a child count subordinate to each of the family records as the standard sets out. NCHI in FAM_RECORD page 24. It allows it on the indi record page 30, but this will not cut the mustard when tehere are multiple marriages, in fa...

Re: Header Record (1 FILE)

I use it, rarely, it doesnt do much. I prefer Editpad Lite, If the Notepad++ plugin would indent as well as make the line it would be far more cute than it currently is.

And before we get there I know I can copy and paste, but I want cut and paste for citations. and a little handier than it is.

Re: Header Record (1 FILE)

my only concern in the field UNICODE is for my personal use in a plugin. It is of no concern to me otherwise. I have already used a word processor to change the field to UTF-8 and when I use it in FH again it goes back to unicode. So, before I run a bunch of other validators on it, I have to remembe...

Nick, et al. I think that if I forced a save I would get an immediate complaint of file has changed do you want to reload? from FH. I do not think I could eat that error and continue because the window would remain unanswered in FH. I would think that there appear to be some small unresolvable issue...

Re: Header Record (1 FILE)

I speak the English language. I have not strongly suggested that it does not work or is not available, nor did I phrase it as a logical consequence. I was not in a position to do the FH version tree leaf, node, and nomenclature, therefore I used 1 FILE from the standard to describe it. But enough of...
