Create multiple sources for birth
If I create an AS census entry with the age of the subject, FH or AS (not sure which) estimates the birth year and stores it as a source for birth, viewable in the yellow FH 'Show Sources' window. If I create a census entry for a different census, also containing the age of the subject, or an entry ...

thank you Sarah. It took me a while to come across your message but Tropy certainly looks like a useful tool.

Re: Importing Templates from RootsMagic
Jeff, I think we exchanged a few messages about SimpleCitations on the RM forum last year. I tried to set up SimpleCitations in FH some months ago but abandoned it. Can't remember why now! I'd certainly be interested to try your templates if you don't mind sharing them.
thanks!
thanks!

Add Citation using new source template in Ancestral Sources
I added an event in Ancestral Sources and then opened the newly created record in FH to add an Evidence Explained type of derivative citation using a new source template in FH. Is there a way to have added that citation in Ancestral Sources? My end result is to have the citation included as a footno...

Re: What records cite a source?
Lorna - I now see the citations column which I'd not noticed before. I also referred back to Helen's comment and I now understand what she meant by using the "Source Record Window to show the number of Citations"
I have what I need - thanks to you both!

Re: What records cite a source?
Yes, View | Citations to source record gives me what I want, thanks!
Is there a report that can list all uncited sources?

I have some sources that may be redundant. Before I delete them, is there a way to check if any records cite them?

Re: FH7 won't start
I think the system restore was from a point between upgrading to 7.0.4 and 7.0.5. Reinstalling 7.0.5 today resolved the issue. Thanks for your suggestion!

Re: FH7 won't start
By restarting Windows I meant using the Restart option. I tried a full Shutdown and later restarted Windows but FH7 did not start. I invoked FH by clicking on the desktop icon and also from the Start | Family Historian folder. Double-clicking a GEDCOM file started a different family tree program. I ...

FH7 won't start
There are not many days that I don't start FH7 but today it just won't start. I've no problems with other programs, I've tried Run as Administrator and tried restarting Windows but whatever I do, I can't start FH7! There's no error or other message.
I'm running Windows 10.
Any suggestions please?

Examples below show the text in AS and then the text after it's arrived in FH7 I'm not using Rich Text Support. What settings are needed in AS to ensure lines up in FH7 without needing to be re...

Ghosts in the All Relatives Diagram
I've noticed some 'ghost entries' in the All Relatives Diagram. At first I thought I'd corrupted my database so I was quite relieved to see the same issue in the demonstration database as can be seen in the below image in which Charles William Smith Munro is duplicated. I'm using 7.0.3 Any idea what...

Peter, thanks for the clear explanation. I did a quick test and it seems to do what's needed, leaving "Text from Source", "Notes" and "Media" information intact.

Re: How to apply a different template on a source citation
Helen, thanks - I see it.
Peter, could you kindly clarify what you mean by "delete the template field from the source record" Is this from the Sources tab? Currently, "Add template" is greyed out and not selectable?

Re: How to apply a different template on a source citation
thanks Helen, but is that the right link? The discussion there is about importing RootsMagic todo lists, and unless I'm missing something, not related to moving a citation from one template to another?
