One thing I miss with this software is that there does not appear to be any provision for printing an alpha and/or numeric listing of the database. This is one thing I miss after coming across from my previous software (which is no longer available or supported due to retirement of the developer). I don't know if there are other genealogy software with this feature. So therefore would it be possible to have:
1) An alpha listing with the choice of :
a)First Name first and:
b) Last Name first.
2) A numeric listing.
3) A choice of either.
This would really round off a FANTASTIC software.
I have looked at all the options for printing of charts and reports but can't see what I want. I apologise if it is there and I have missed it
I hope you will seriously consider this, as I know some of the surnames I have entered are all upper-case and some are a mixture of upper and lower-case, but I can't tell which is which from the list and the cards. I want to have a printed list all in upper-case. An example is McDONALD/MacDONALD as those names show as MCDONALD/MACDONALD.
A listing would help me find which Names need to be altered to upper-case. They show up on the person's edit screen, but I don't want to have to go through 3500 plus names!!! to alter them
Sorry for being so"long-winded" with this request.
My Family history is under 12 different family names, and some info is common to more than one family, What I would like to know is can I, by using the Export/Import from/to Excel, place info from one export to another and then import back to the other tree. Does that make sense?
Can I export it back as an Excel file format, i.e., Filename.xls.?
Do I have to keep the layout as it was? Some columns I have hidden. Do I have to unhide them?I also have changed the ID column heading to just ID without the rest that came over with it. (it was ID 1 | EN)Can I just leave it as ID?
I have just completed another tree update in excel, saved as .csv, but when i import back I get an error message saying The file has an incorrect header. What have I done wrong?.
I can't use .xls type as the FTB only allows *.csv,*.txt, or *text.
PLSSSS!!!!! Help me!!!!!
If I sent the file to you, could you determine the problem?
I am having the same problem. How did you fix it? I have 200 or so record's, I don't want to manually enter them in.
