V.7

Post by Colin.Shepherd »

I had to replace my computer following hard drive problems (it was 12 years old).
Bought V.7 as none of the software could be transferred.
Loaded my ged in (much of my actual data was saved).
In the property box can't get sources for facts to appear anywhere.
If I print out an individual or family group sheet they appear so obviuosly there.

Welcome to the FHUG Colin.

Could you provide a little background of what you were using on your old computer.
e.g. Was it an earlier FH version? Did you use Ancestral Sources?

Have you loaded your GEDCOM as a Project?

Have you clicked the yellow Show Sources button in the Property Box toolbar?

What setting have you in Tools > Preferences > Property Box for Preferred Position for Citation List Pane?

I was using version 4.
On advice from FH I uploaded the gedcom file as a project.
If I click the yellow show sources button nothing happens,
