Selecting census.

Post by ELM » 24 Oct 2003 10:25

There are a few queries in the Query Store detailing with census returns.
Census Group attempts to list the group of people in a given census in a given place but only looks at the first census.
Census Places lists the places where individuals are in each of the census but uses custom events for each census to achieve this.
Census Record Checklist lists the years for the 1st, 2nd etc census an individual has a census for.
Would it be possible to select a census using the year or to use a TYPE tag with the CENS tag? The TYPE tag could be something like 1881 UK, and then used like the TYPE tag on the EVEN tag is used in the Census Places query.
This should be in addition to the current facility.

On wish list as
Use dates as ‘indices’ in query expressions (e.g. CUST[date=1901])
