Creating a report of Research Notes using a query
Posted: 21 Dec 2020 12:12
I like the new Research notes functionality in FH7 and I am trying to sort out how best to use them.
One of the things I would like to do is produce a report for the same repository. At the moment I have put a hyperlink in the research task stating, for example, Ancestry.com is the repository that I want to create a Research Note Task report for.
I have tried creating a query with the selection being "Add if %NOTE.TEXT% contains 'ancestry'" but that doesn't produce any results. I presume that I am querying the wrong field. What should I be querying?
I can see me wanting to set up reports for particular Surnames or sources e.g. newspapers or censuses. I think sorting out how to generate the query on Notes will help me understand how to best add text to research notes.
