Re: Highlighting different projects

Perhaps add a "test" suffix to the names, or add "test" image as the first preference instead of faces Nice idea, however something I didn't say which shoots this suggestion down is that having sorted out any issues with new data I may export the relevant records from the test and merge them in to ...

Highlighting different projects

I have a main project and a second one in which I do things like trying merges, temporary storage of details that need validating etc. I sometimes have both projects open at the same time and other than the project name at the top they look the same. I'd like to do something to give a more visible i...

Recording grandson with unknown parents

On the 1891 census I have a family with Head (age 47), Wife (45), Daughter (19), Son (17), Son (13), Son (6) and Grandson (2). The guess is that he is the son of either of the two elder children. I'm struggling to find any other records about him. What's the best way to record grandchildren of unkno...

Re: Expression for file roots wife

I've also, using Query:Individual ~ Ages on Census Produced by brianh as a starting point, created a query to list all individuals with census entries, showing the age given at each census. If there is a census entry without an age it shows "???". As it only has one column for each census (the origi...

Re: Expression for file roots wife

Magic! Thankyou. The query I've been working on is to help me check I've put all the entries on to Lost Cousins for both myself and my wife. You enter a census year (usually 1841,1881 or 1911) and it lists all the individuals with census events for the selected year. It also gives the age entered ag...

I have a query of type fact which is currently showing the Ahnentafel Number of the owner of the selected events (census) relative to myself (I'm file root). Column expression =AhnentafelNumber(FileRoot(),GetRecord(%FACT%),1) That works as expected. I'd like to add a column to show the Ahnentafel Nu...
