Need assistance with a Source query

Post by nconway567 » 04 Jan 2023 19:04

I have an ongoing project to "clean up" old source that have survived multiple program changes, mostly recently from Roots Magic to Family Historian. I've tried using the Replace selected source citations plugin, and for the most part it works well. However there are some cases where it just won't or can't, identify some citation details, like Volume and Page. When I run the plugin, sometimes I get blanks in those fields.

I've also tried running the List all Citations for a Selected Source plugin, and I get the text from the source, but not citation details like Volume and page.

So I need a query where I can select the source and get a list of all the citations (no matter how many are linked to a specific person) with all the information from the citation. I'm at a loss for which fields I need to add when attempting to create a custom query for this.

Can anyone assist? Thanks in advance
Nicole

Have you tried the Where Used Record Links plugin?

Thank you so much! I never used that plugin before. Being able to preserve that data is a huge help. Thanks again!
