I think that it applies to all Charts and Reports, and I checked both for
Ancestors. You need to select from Report Options>Format and you will find
the "Use quoted names" and "remove quoted names" about half way down the
left hand column.

If I'm understanding your question - I started out listing my Master
Sources by type. Then I decided they work better by location. My cousin
talked me into it when we started to share databases. So I changed most
of them. Now I just have to remember to search for them that way.

Pat - I agree that there are many ways to approach this issue. The key
is to find a system that makes sense to you and then stick with it -
be consistent and spend the time at the outset to play around and get

There is no problem in giving a URL, only with attaching or embedding images
in the posts. This is because they are often large, and can carry a virus

Although this works in reports and basic charts, it does not work on

It is supposed to scroll through the siblings of the highlighted person.
Are the siblings of the person who was highlighted in sequence when you

A question, related to the discussion about choosing a Source List name.
On the Source Edit screen (Basic Source system), there is a field called Type.
It appears nowhere else but on this screen. It does not appear in any Source
reports. You cannot sort by it or filter by it.
But if you

How do I correct the pin in the map in the Master Location List?

Yes. I went against Geoff in one way. I have hundreds of US census 'pages' so I

When you display the location on the map, move the cursor to the correct
location and right click on the mouse.
