I am puzzled by the choice of Postcode as the final field. Postcodes have only been around in the UK for the last 60 years, what if you encounter an address that existed previous to that date. You also make no mention of Town, City, County or Country, is all your research in a small area with no nee...

Can I suggest a slightly different approach that I use in these circumstances. Link the children to the new (correct) parents before unlinking them from the old (incorrect) parents. It is easy to flip back and fore between the families, your progress is always visible and there is less chance of los...

I see this slightly differently. The original question was a wish to add street maps to places where ancestors lived but places are geographical locations i.e. villages, towns and cities. I use the Places feature for geographical locations and Addresses for the addresses of houses, building, churche...

Yes it is possible to search using those ID numbers

I too suffered these random crashes of FH and tried all the published suggestions including the IE Shell and a reinstall but nothing seemed to work. I switched to using an external browser and no more crashes. In fact, that was about 3 months ago and not a single incident since. It is a nice idea to...

Correct with the project name and project path.

The single administrator account (Dad) was created at install time.

The computer has a name of Dad-PC

The account name is Dad

One of the previous plugin versions did show BUILTIN\Users

Still works OK Dad-PC\Dad D:\Dropbox\#Genealogy Live\Lasbury_June_2019\Public BUILTIN\Administrators:(I)(F) BUILTIN\Administrators:(I)(OI)(CI)(IO)(F) NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM:(I)(F) NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM:(I)(OI)(CI)(IO)(F) NT AUTHORITY\Authenticated Users:(I)(M) NT AUTHORITY\Authenticated Users:(I)(OI)(CI)...

Was expecting Generic Read & Write as per previous version but it shows GR & GE instead.

What does GE represent?

Just looking a bit deeper into my longer negative decimal number of -1610612736 that was output from the plugin. Converted to hex it has just bits 30 and 31 set to 1 and I found a website that shows the Access_Mask has bit 30 to signify generic write and bit 31 to signify generic read. So it looks l...

Different output from others but looks like it it is working.

Mike Just did a bit of googling on get-acl and found mention of the .access feature. I followed the example given with c:\windows and it returned an extensive set of results, though I have no idea if it is what you need. I tried it with the full path to my public folder and the command failed howeve...

FH data in Dropbox folder

Thanks Mike, that works perfectly.

I am using the Export Gedcom plugin to generate my gedcoms for my TNG website and would like to improve the output of one custom fact. I have a fact called "Marriage Witness" that works OK within FH recording the names of witnesses to a marriage. When I use the plugin to export a gedcom the text "At...

Yes following the normal procedure for excluding facts for living individuals etc. before export. I had not yet explored the Split Tree Helper feature. Just had a look and can see how I can select just that fact and have it removed from the exported gedcom, (not the live working gedcom). I have dele...

A question for Mike regarding his plugins. I make use of your excellent plugins "Clean Living Individuals" and "Export Gedcom" to prepare my data for my TNG website and have just noticed I now have a few "ToDo" custom facts showing online. These are ToDo facts I created to help me keep track of thin...

The ongoing discussions about To Do notes and Research Planners has made me reconsider how I was organising my own To Do's. I create To Do facts to remind myself of records that need my attention. I have a custom query that searches for these facts and produces a report and have been saving these re...

Yes I did read the instructions and view the template but this is the output from the template as loaded from scratch. The template provides for 6 children all listed below the spouse(s) but the output prints two of the three children at the top of the note. Christopher Ian MUNRO, Born 12 January 19...

Thanks Jane, I have just installed the plugin and run it a few times. The plugin runs and the note is created in Evernote but I think something is not right with the formatting as some of the children are shown above the primary individual at the top of the note. Also if there is more than one marri...

I prefer to use Evernote for my Notes and To Do planning and there is a particular Evernote feature that may help its integration with FH. Evernote can continually monitor a chosen folder and will immediately import a newly saved file it finds in that folder. It creates a new note in a chosen Everno...

To get a feel for what the 1812 amount was worth it relation to today's values you could try an inflation calculator. https://www.bankofengland.co.uk/monetary-policy/inflation/inflation-calculator This site gives a guide to wages, food prices etc. The end of the page has figures close to the start o...

An interesting KB article.
I will be reading to see how I can enhance my simple To Do process.

Thanks
