Re: [LegacyUG] How to query in 7.5

2017-08-18 Thread CE WOOD
I am so glad you were able to help her. As for me, I never set my relationships 
to 999, which as you say, would be ridiculous (and yes I have gotten back to 
medieval and earlier times). What I am most interested in is direct 
ascent/descent, although I find it interesting to discover the ancestral 
relatives.

Well I thought she wanted relatives. But if not, you just do it for the
whole Name List.
Still works.

Anyway have had a private email from Patricia thanking me and that she
found what she wanted.

Re the Relationship settings to 999 - unless you've got very complex
multiple lines of descent from multiple people - as in the royal
genealogies/medieval genealogies, as I think you do, it's a waste of
time to set it so high.
Set relationships doesn't give you non-blood relationships beyond
immediate in-laws. The Relationship Calculator does.

Patricia,

There are two ways you could do it in Legacy 7.5.
1. Customise the Index columns in Index View to include Age at Death 
and then scan the column.

This obviously isn't the best way if you have a large file.
2. Make a search list of the relevant people - eg Set Relationships to 
your uncle and then search for Individual - Relationship - equal to -

Then in the Search list use Print and customise to include Age at 
Death and instead of previewing or printing, use the option to save to 
CSV. This file can be opened in a Spreadsheet program. There you can 
sort on the Age at Death column.


As Linda says, there are some statistics available in 8 but this isn't

Re: [LegacyUG] How to query in 7.5

2017-08-16 Thread CE WOOD
Just because someone doesn't have a death date does not mean he is still alive. 
Many people do not have a death date because it is unknown, but they are 
obviously dead because they were born about 1325, or 1725, etc.


That's why Legacy 7.5 has the option:

  If there is no death date when saving a record: Ask if living if over 
 ; Set as dead if over .


For the many hundreds of people whom I have whose birth and death dates are 
unknown, I must use evidence of dated documents signed by or mentioning him to 
estimate a birth year.

That only looks at birth year. If someone were born in 1926 and died in 1927 
they would still show up on that list, but they aren't over 90 yrs old.

If you look at birth year before 1927 AND death year is blank then you'd get 
all the people who are still alive and 90+. It would also pick up all those 
people who don't have a death date entered yet because it isn't known. It would 
miss those born before 1927 and lived 90+ years before dying.

The person has to be born in 1926 or earlier and either still be alive (no 
death date) or they died after they turned 90 (death year minus birth year).

Since age is a calculated amount and I don't know how to do that in Legacy, you 
might have to do a separate search for:
1) those who were born before 1927 and are still alive (death date blank)
2) then for each year before 1927
birthdate before 1926 AND deathdate after 2016
birthdate before 1925 AND deathdate after 2015... etc

This will find anyone in your database who is born for the whole year of 1926, 
because whole year dates are taken from 1 Jan to 31 Dec.
In my database, the above returned 8 individuals.

If I changed the first What condition to 17 Aug 1927, and left the second What

If you look at birth year before 1927 AND death year is blank then you'd
get all the people who are still alive and 90+. It would also pick up all
those people who don't have a death date entered yet because it isn't
known. It would miss those born before 1927 and lived 90+ years before
dying.

The person has to be born in 1926 or earlier and either still be alive (no
death date) or they died after they turned 90 (death year minus birth year).

Since age is a calculated amount and I don't know how to do that in Legacy,
you might have to do a separate search for:
1) those who were born before 1927 and are still alive (death date blank)
2) then for each year before 1927
birthdate before 1926 AND deathdate after 2016
birthdate before 1925 AND deathdate after 2015... etc

Re: [LegacyUG] How to query in 7.5

2017-08-16 Thread Patricia Kruger
Thanks Mark - but I'm not looking for anyone still alive.  I want to be able to 
tell him (at his upcoming birthday gathering) that he is one of X number of our 
family who lived to at least 90 years (he may be the only one for all I know).  
Since there isn't a way to calculate and insert age (maybe an event creation?) 
, there is no way to sort and print a list that I can figure out.  Any other 
ideas will be appreciated.
Pat

It wouldn’t matter whether you have Legacy 7.5, 8 or 9; this procedure works

Your Uncle is going to 90, therefore, he was born in 1927

 

Using Search > Find

How to Look: Before

Second Condition : AND

This will find anyone in your database who is born for the whole year of 1926, 
because whole year dates are taken from 1 Jan to 31 Dec.

In my database, the above returned 8 individuals.

 

If I changed the first What condition to 17 Aug 1927, and left the second What
