Re: [LegacyUG] Search Problems

[Elizabeth Richardson]

Are you using "equal to", "contains" . . . what is the search criteria 
you're using?

I have a bit of a mystery, I did a search in Legacy 7 for people who died in 
1985 ( I know of at least 3 in my tree including my father)
I put 1985 in the 'Died' box but I got "No records were found that matched 
this Criteria"


I tried other years that I knew people had died in like my grand parents 
other names came up but not my grandparents.

It just seemed to miss certain people but show others

Anybody else experience this problem or might know the cause?

Use "contains" 1985.  It will pick up all the 1985s no matter the exact date.

Did you use "Contains" in  the field "How to search" ?

Re: [LegacyUG] Search Problems

[Leon Chapman]

Steve:

You can also use the following:

Primary Condition:
  Individual, Death Date, Contains, 1983

This will find any occurance of 1983 in the death field.

I have some death fields that I have imported from FTM file that have the
following kind of dates:
WFT Est 1922-1983

This Contains qualifier finds all of these kind of dates also.

Re: [LegacyUG] Search Problems

[Leon Chapman]

Steve:

What is the criteria that you used and how did you do your search?

You will have to use two conditions as follows in the Query by Example Tab:

Primary Condition:
  Individual, Death Date, After, 31 Dec 1982

Second Condition:
  And
  Individual, Death Date, Before, 31 Dec 1983

This finds all people who died in 1983.

Hope this helps.

Re: [LegacyUG] Search Problems

[Henry T. Peterson Jr.]

Steve

I used Equals 1991 and got 40 __Field contains only the year 1991

I used Contains 1991 and got 321  _It includes all partial and complete 
dates

I used After 31 dec 1990 and before 01 Jan 1992 and got 370 _This finds all 
partial and complete dates but also includes 1992(year only dates)

The searches work very well but, you have to be careful on the parameters

Regards
Henry

Re: [LegacyUG] Search Problems

[Steve Giles]

I just don't understand it no matter what I try it just doesn't work.
I get no results even by putting the 'Before' or 'after'  in.

I've changed the Exact, Starts with & Anywhere in field buttons but still no
luck.

Re: [LegacyUG] Search Problems

[Elizabeth Richardson]

Steve, when you're looking for a date, the options "starts with" and 
"anywhere" are not on the list, so make sure you're searching the date field 
for an individual. Have you used the option "contains"? If you still get no 
results, have you looked at a person's information that you know should come 
up on the search results to verify you have the information entered 
correctly?
