RE: [LegacyUG] Apologies - another question.
Hi, No I can achieve that just by making the last field date at death. I'm wanting to display their current age if still alive.

Ian, In Family View, say you have the default Death Cause as a core event, click on it, choose Customise, and then you can select what field you want to display from a drop down list activated by clicking on the button next to the Death Cause. Is that what you wanted?

Hi, I seem to recall reading (some time ago) that there is a way to show a person’s current age in family view and I “think” age at death if not living. I’ve searched the help file without success. Am I correct or has this old brain let me down again?

I've searched the help file without success. Am I correct or has this old brain let me down again? The only place a person's age is shown, whether still living or not, is on the individual's screen as far as I know. If the person has died, it gives their age at death but their overall age still keeps increasing year on year. If I understand correctly (and that's not guaranteed since I am very tired right now), you would like to have a field in the family view for the person's age or to have it appear beside the person's name or data as it does in the individual screen? -- Charani (UK) OPC for Walton, Ashcott, Shapwick, Greinton and Clutton, SOM http://wsom-opc.org.uk Legacy User Group guidelines: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/Etiquette.asp Archived messages after Nov. 21 2009: http://www.mail-archive.com/legacyusergroup@legacyusers.com/ Archived messages from old mail server - before Nov. 21 2009: http://www.mail-archive.com/legacyusergroup@legacyfamilytree.com/ Online technical support: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/Help.asp Follow Legacy on Facebook (http://www.facebook.com/LegacyFamilyTree) and on our blog (http://news.LegacyFamilyTree.com).

RE: [LegacyUG] Apologies - another question.
Ian, If you customise the Family View to include Age at Death as you indicate, will show the age of the individual at their death. If there is no age, they are still alive, in which case you will need to activate the Individual Information dialog and look to the far right of the Birth date and Place to see the age of the living individual. Simply click any of the 5 labels to customise the Family View data, click the ellipses button next to a field you wish to use then select Age at Death option. Click [Select], then [Close].
