I love FH7 inc. data management and the Records Window

No issue here, but a thanks to Simon and his crew and those of you on FHUG.

I love FH7. In particular the data management and the Records Window.

I consider myself a regular dabbler rather than a dedicated family researcher, i.e. I spend intense sessions of an hour or so, here or there, or a couple of days "locked" in my den followed by gaps of varying lengths due to "life". Don't get me wrong, I love my life.

I spent some years using The Master Genealogist before becoming a refugee to RootsMagic and now a deserter from there some months ago. Perhaps accordingly, my recording of data has not been as consistent as it should have been.

So, over recent days I have been standardising my data with a mixture of Custom Queries accessing metadata associated with RM imported templates (thanks to references in FH Help from Mike Tate) and use of the wonderful Records Window, I have achieved a massive cleanup that I once thought would take weeks, at best.

Now I feel that I can head into "real research" and new areas rather than mere data and software management.

Thank you everyone.

Cheers,
Robert
