It means that with Advanced Set Living, if someone is marked dead due
to age, all their ancestors will be marked dead as well.
So if you have someone in your database born 1900 and you choose to

I don't think you've solved the problem of needing to record what was
actually found in the source by splitting the event into date and

Clearly we need to restrain annoyance with those who continue (as it would
appear) to write in about their influx of subscription messages.
I posted to the list at 10-something AM this morning, and my message just

Actually, no you won't. Geoff posted a correction to clarify that he did NOT
state the release date was May 10, only that it is soon. Michelle, you
will be able to download v. 7 as soon as it is released. A date of May 10th
has not been officially announced.

What I do is, for each fact I use a Source and in the
Source detail I put a 'transcription' of the 'part' of
the date/place found there. Example: a tombstone may
have only years, and initials instead of full name. So
each of the two or three sources can show what it
has/doesn't have.

in connection with the UK 1841 census where a location may be given as not of

No I wouldn't. Date and place would be enough for me :) I do take your
point, but that would be taking it to silly levels.
As for double entering I don't see this as a huge problem. I'm sure the

place fields.

Yes Ron explained this, and I have to be honest and say I wasn't aware of

Rich,
I don't use html the point is if I put an angle bracket into my email then

Why not use Options Cutomise to copy all the RINs over to User ID
