| Function Name: |
LifeDates2 |
| Description: |
This function behaves exactly like =LifeDates(), except
that it will return a hyphen where =LifeDates() would return nothing.
This is useful if, for example, you want the life dates to appear in brackets
after a person's name and you want a visible indication if there are no
dates (e.g. "John Smith ( - )"). |

2 (or 3.1 if using 2nd parameter) |

No modifications. The default. |
| EXT |
If no dates are available, return estimated dates
instead, preceded by a tilda '~'. With birth dates, the estimated
date is the estimated earliest possible birth date. With death dates,
the estimated date is the estimated latest possible death date. |
