Gedcom Census 2.4 is an application designed to be used in conjunction with Calico's Family Historian to allow faster creation of England/Wales Census source records for single households with occupation and census events linked to the source for each individual in the household. This program is not in anyway connected to or endorsed by Calico Software.
Most of the changes in version 2.4 are the result of problems reported by users of version 2.1. The changes are listed below:
Most of the changes in version 2.4 are the result of problems reported by users of version 2.1. The changes are listed below:
- Earlier versions could not cope with very large Individual IDs, Source IDs, Family IDs, etc. Corrected this.
- Using method 2 there was often a 'must provide full title' error that prevented saving a census entry and this should no longer happen.
- Earlier versions failed if there was not already at least one source: this error has been corrected.
- Added an hourglass mouse pointer when saving the census record (can take a few seconds for a large file or on an older computer).
- The 'updated' field is now changed for individuals when entered in Gedcom Census
- Allow no data to be entered into Source Text when using method 1.
- Stopped census sources appearing multiple times in the source list for method 2.
- Added some extra error checking in various places.
