Dates

Post by Robert129 » 19 May 2009 18:40

In V3 in the Records Window I managed to change an approximate date to show as 1886 (approx.). I think it is referred to in the manual as Compact 3 - Date Format. In V4 it shows as 1886?. Can someone remind me how to change this please and ideally I would like it to be 1886 (app)if possible.

Go into the column editing - See

Add a date column for birth and death and then edit the column expressions to add :COMPACT to the end.
