Convert Sources query
Posted: 27 Dec 2022 20:43
Please do not spend any time on this Nick, as it is more an enquiry looking for an answer/explanation than anything else.
I've been working using the Census > Source Convert option, and the "No hyper link" filter. It has worked perfectly so far till I hit on a query.
this one came up and seems to have a problem identifying the links to be created, although it has found one.
and yet in FH, I can see no obvious reason from the raw data why this should be so. I could perhaps understand the mother not being linked as I do not have her full name, but if it identifies Charlotte, why not her siblings/father?
All other conversions (about 45 or so today) have converted flawlessly, and saved a huge amount of time and energy, so major thanks for this facility.
The original source text seems ok (to me)
Incidentally, I have noticed that if an edit is made (and saved) to FH while using the Source Converter, we are not prompted to reload the file. Maybe one for way down the line?
