Hope I'm posting in the right subgroup!

I'm using the standard "Research Notes for Repository" query but the query results are missing some of the tasks that I've linked to that repository. It looks like it includes my old tasks that I imported from RootsMagic (where the repositories are just text, not links) but it's not finding my new tasks where I've linked the repository (with the text being automated text). I don't know if I'm doing something wrong in creating the task, or whether it's a query issue.

1st image: The task in question. You can see the blue text that's linked to the repository. [This is just an example. There are other tasks that are missing.]
2nd image: The query search. In the background, you can see that my task in question is record ID 1522
3rd image: The query results, sorted by record ID. You can see that the record IDs stop in the 1400s. None of the tasks that I've added in FH are there.


When I add a task, I do it one of two ways: (1) Add-->Research Note-->Task or (2) from a person's property box via Notes tab, Add Note-->Shared Research Note. In either case, I add a repository by linking to the repository.

Any thoughts about what's going on?

The query is looking for links from the chosen Repository to any Research Notes.

Your screenshot shows a link from the Research Note to the Repository, i.e. in the opposite direction.

Although the imported RM Research Note only lists the Repository using text, I suspect the Repository Record has an actual link to the Research Note.

Thanks, Mike! I totally misunderstood what that query was doing. I thought it would be an easy way to print out a task list for a research trip to a library. I was interpreting the links as 2-way and missed the nuance about one-way links. (One links are counterintuitive to me!) But I figured it out another way, building a custom research note query where I looked for the repository name in the research note text. I could then use that query to add the notes to a Research Note report (Misc. report). So, in the end, I finally got to where I wanted to go but in a completely different way. There are a lot of places in FH where the framework logic eludes me, and like always, your guidance on what to do (or in this case, what I'm doing wrong) helped me go down the right path.

Appreciate it!

Best,

All FH/GEDCOM links are only one-way.
i.e. From Individual or Family to Media, from Fact Citation to Source, from Source to Repository, etc...
