I'm sorry. I had sent the details about Focus groups to here this morning. That is the way to 'mass' tag a group. The Focus Groups and To Do Lists are two different ways to accompish similar tasks. I wrongly thought you had seen the 'Focus' stuff, so I showed the 'other way'. Rich in LA CA

There is indexing available on line for birth, death & marriage records from the 1830's through the 1880's. When I find the name of a parent I go and pick up all the information from the indexes for that family and put it into the notes. Then when I have time, I go back and do the data entry and sourcing for the family. I want to tag just an individual not a whole group. I may have 7 or 8 people I need to find to finish their information at a time. As I work with exit records, parents are listed and I try to put the whole family together. After I tag an individual, how then do I find that person quickly again. The number 1 or 2 or 3 show and turn blue but when I click on it nothing happens. Where do I go to find that person with the tag. Yes, I can go to the name list or Index but I do not always remember the name I am looking for. I am data entering close to a 100 people a day. I need to fully understand how to tag individuals so I can quickly find them to finish them up. > >Ila Johnson > >--- On Wed, 1/13/10, RICHARD SCHULTHIES <[email protected]> wrote: > > >>From: RICHARD SCHULTHIES <[email protected]> >>Subject: Re: [LegacyUG] Ref: Tagging >>To: [email protected] >>Date: Wednesday, January 13, 2010, 1:05 PM >> >> >> >>First go to the first person in the future group, then View (on the >>toolbar), then Focus group.
