Richard and Carol, I use the Repository to record the specific place (e.g. Institution) where the record is held. I use the Locality to record where I want to access that repository. For example, I have Localities such as "Home" and "Adelaide", whereas the Respositories may be an internet site (which I will access from home) or, say, the Mortlock Library, which is located in Adelaide. If I plan to write to the Mortlock, I will have the Locality as Home, whereas if I plan to visit it, I will have the Locality as Adelaide so I can pull out all the To-Do's for my next visit to Adelaide.
So I use Locality to group all the To-Do's I want to do at a particular location. If Repository is good enough for your purpose, just leave Locality blank. I'm not aware of a way of sorting the To-Do report for a Locality or Repository by individual. Rob > > > >1. I don't understand the nuance difference > >between "Locality" and "Repository".
