Is there a way to save my data as draft in AS

I was called to dinner half way through creating a census in AS and had to cancel my current session which prompts the question of whether there's a way to save one's current work before committing the full set of changes to the FH gedcom data file. If not, is it worth having this as a possible futu...

Re: AS Backup and Restore from image

thanks Nick. Where are any new or changed templates eg. Census Templates stored?

AS Backup and Restore from image

I regularly backup my system to external drives with Macrium Reflect. What would I need to restore to get Ancestral Sources working as before? Would this include any census templates I create?

thanks

I just have a newbie question to help my understanding of FH : If AS didn't exist - what would have been best practice to enter and cite a census using FH...

Re: How to add a census

Many thanks to Helen, Bill and Nick - I was thinking I'd have to do the editing with Notepad but I'm impressed to see it can all be done in AS. (Nick - I just made a small donation to thank you for your continuing development and support :D .)

Re: How to add a census

Bill, yes I was thinking the same and now I'm starting to research how to start but I'll take your advice on modifying an existing template :D Having said that, FH would have been designed so censuses could be entered and cited independently of AS but looking around I got quite bogged down in descri...
