Gedcom census and Multimedia links
I just wanted to clarify that the earlier versions of Gedcom Census that didn't add the Link/Note weren't doing anything wrong. Link/Notes are not created in Family Historian when linking from a source to an image, only when linking from an image to a source (which one might haved expected to be the same thing). This is why the Link/Note creation is only an option in Gedcom Census.

Fixed, thanks. I'm glad I put in a big enough screen shot so you could see the reference numbers for the source and object.
For anyone else doing this, there is a small thing to watch out for in Word. I cut and pasted the 0 @S137@ SOUR string from FHUG into the Word Find dialog but it reported it couldn't find it. After a few minutes where I manually scrolled to the text, cut and pasted direct from the GEDCOM and tried again I saw the problem. Word adds a space at the end of the string. It assumes you are going to paste it back into the document so puts the space on so you don't join it to the word in front. So either type the string manually into the Find dialog or cut and paste and delete the space at the end.
