Me? I don't follow a lot of the conventional thinking for location entry
and this is an example. I would simply add the street data to the
community and have it read: "Middlesbrough (25 Willow Street),
Yorkshire, England" If this is a family home I would say that as well:
"Middlesbrough (Bage family home at 25 Willow Street), Yorkshire,
England". I like to do it this way as it is "in your face" when working
on the family and marriage screen(s). Will also use event entry
occasionally but only when it gets rather complicated and could be
confusing. Has never created a problem for me and looks just fine in
reports.

Subject: [LegacyUG] Location addresses (AGAIN)
I am revisiting my location address dilemma. I am really struggling
with
this.
I understand that I enter my location address like this
"Middlesbrough,
Yorkshire, England"
BUT, for my birth I'd like to enter "25 Willow Street" presumably in
the
event address.
My questions are
1. In this case what goes in the name fields? If I leave this blank
the list
shows n/a. In such a case (which most of mine are) how do I find the
address
again as everything in the location list is named n/a.
2. What is the sort string for? I had assumed I could use this to
order my
address list for instance "Middlesbrough, 25 Willow St". This would
have
made sorting easy, but it does not appear to do this so what is this
fields
purpose.
3. How do I include these addresses in reports. I am aware that there
are
event & event address check boxes in some reports but these do not
appear to
work always and when they do they are unsightly.
Regards
Keith
