On the DETAIL tab of the Individual's Record surely the EMIGRATED field should be linked to TO, and IMMIGRATED linked to FROM? I have a relative to emigrated from London to Canada which I can't input correctly with the present fields. Perhaps an item for the Wish List would be to allow the Emigration and Immigration fields each to be given the option of From or To, thereby covering all situations.

Emigrated / Immigrated
You can enter as many immigrated etc fields using the event tab, so you can have as many pairs as you need.
Emigrated / Immigrated
I puzzled over this when I first used it but now I think it works out fine.
My relative emigrated FROM England on a given date and he imigrated TO Canada on another given date. When he was in England he emigrated FROM that country and when he was in Canada he had imigrated TO that country.
Hope that makes sense.
