Further to the discussion about Q dates, after reading your last mail I
checked my database and none of the dates I have entered as Q#, ####
(year) show as "bad dates" under potential problems. However, all the
dates I have entered like this relate to either births or marriages.
Just now I have entered a death date the same way and it has shown up
as a potential problem.
This is really odd!
I thought I'd just try what you have done to see what happened. I
entered a Death date as Q1 1863 and it was accepted, but when I ran
Potential Problems it flagged up the person's daughter and said
"Mother's Death date is bad"! I then changed the person's birth date to
the same format and got the same result - "Mother's Birth date is bad".
I would have expected it to say that format was a bad date, but why on
earth does it attach the problem to the person's child, not the person
themselves?
With my experience, I do not understand why you have had no problems
entering Q# #### as Birth or Marriage dates.
