Subject: [LegacyUG] Jan to Mar, Apr to Jun, Jul to Sep, Oct to Dec
For those dates I specify 1Q,2Q,3Q or 4Q yyyy
this allows 2 things
a): I feel it is more accurate than saying 'abt month, yyyy' because for me I assume abt means within a date range
eg abt mar 1800 would mean something like any time between jan and may 1800.
b): this is the only time i refer to 1Q,2Q etc so I know exactly what they mean. I also have it documented in the Source notes that the dates that are listed in the bmd data base have been converted eg '1Q 1800' means the source data said 'Mar 1800' which is stated to mean the registration of the event (not the actual event!) occured in Jan,Feb or Mar or 1800
It works for me
