Custom Queries

Post by Marilyn » 30 Dec 2008 12:55

Please could some kind person talk me through how to create a custom query on Family Historian.  I seem to get so far then am  totally confused with the instructions.

I am trying to create a query for all individuals who ever lived at a certain address and another one for all individuals married, baptised or buried in a certain church.

I am completely lost and would really appreciate any help.

Thank you to everyone who has helped me so far while I am finding my way around the programme, it is very much appreciated.

Thanks again

The simplest way for the address one is just use the existing 'contains text' query and type the address as the text.

The other one can be done by adding individuals where the birth place is the correct village and repeating for the burial and marriage place, or simply do as above entering the church name.
