I am working on a family that was entered under version 7.0.0.90 but
had most of the sources added after conversion to version 98.
I have run Search>Missing sources, with all the boxes checked except
the Everything, Anything and ALL boxes. I get the response "No records
were found that match the search criteria". However I know that there
are several births, marriages and events that are not sourced, and
there may be others.
I ran the same Search>Missing sources on a family entered and sourced
under version 90, and it showed the list of several people with
unsourced fields, which is what I had expected.
I have run file maintenance, closed and reopened the program, and
rebooted with no different response to the searches. This is a very
useful search if it can be made to work. Has anyone else had found
this problem, have we got a bug, or am I missing something?
I find it very confusing that you keep talking about families being
"entered and sourced" and then say that you expect to find missing
sources. Presumably you entered *some* sources but not all, and
mentioning "and sourced" serves no useful purpose here.
Anyway, I added a person to my file this morning and didn't Source the
entry and it shows up in a Missing Sources search with the same criteria
as you outline. Thus, I can't explain your problem but there doesn't
seem to be a bug.
I must thank you, though, for allowing me to discover how many Sources
are missing (quite unnecessarily!) from my file!
