Census Records in Records Window Columns

Post by Moira » 22 Jun 2007 11:35

I have configured columns for the various Census years (Census 1841) etc and they show on the records window but they do not show where an individual was/address at the time of that census. What do I need to do to show that and ensure the columns will update as I enter census records.

Thank you

Assuming you are using the standard census event for Individuals, you need to right-click on the column headings in the Records Window and select 'Configure Columns'. Then scroll to the bottom of the list, select '' and press the '>' button to add it to the list. Set the Heading value to '1841 Census Place' and the Expression to 'INDI.CENS[year=1841].PLAC' (without the quotes).
