* Correct expression for husband's estimated death date

[Seeker]

Hi

I have a photograph which was taken between 1906 and 1914 judging by the fashions and depicts a widow. So I am looking for an expression for a husband's estimated death date, I have tried this:

=EstimatedDeathDate(%INDI.FAMS>HUSB%,LATEST,2)

but it gives me an error message, "The expression entered is not recognised as a valid function, or some parameters were entered incorrectly."

Please advise where I am going wrong.

PS Clock on here doesn't seem to know that the clocks went back on Sunday! I posted at about 09:30 so was started led to see 10:30 as the time of posting!

%INDI.FAMS>HUSB>% needs a trailing > to point to the Individual record.

Click your Seeker username top right and choose User Control Panel and then BOARD PREFERENCES.
In Edit global settings what is My timezone set to?

Mine is UTC+00:00 and Europe/London and my posting times are GMT.

Thank you.
Do you have to change your time zone when the clocks change?

Can't speak for Mike, but I changed nothing in my profile and it is correctly showing UTC +2 (I am in Greece).

No, I don't change My timezone to get the changes between BST and GMT. It is all automatic.

The only other possible explanation is your setting for My board style.
Mine is Metrolink Blue and others may not adjust BST/GMT correctly.

If you got to the home Board index page, what does it say top left?
Mine shows the correct date and time: It is currently Tue 27th Oct 2020 13:06

It is currently Tue Oct 27, 2020 4:10 pm
which is correct. (i've changed the time zone.)

I will wait and see what happens in the spring.
Thank you for the help.
