Baptism / Christening Query

Post by lindad » 01 Apr 2006 14:52

Is there a standard query that I can run to list all people with a baptism / christing event?

I haven't yet worked out how to create custom queries... but maybe someone could give me an idiots guide? [confused]

There is not a standard query for this, but it is well worth learning to build simple queries. It's not difficult to do.

Try taking a look at
Building a query from scratch

Once you have watched that. All you need to do is make a new individual query. Add the baptism and christenings as columns and adding the records with a date for the two events.
The one below only took a couple of seconds to write.

I'm also learning how to make custom queries. Can someone please tell me how to modify the married women query to show more than one marriage, and the 'where in source' details? I want to identify each marriage to fill in gaps.

Simply duplicate the existing columns then on the FAM[1] bit change the number to [2].
