Evert, You are on target. that is exactly the point I was making. There are no [fields] indicated for places, only names and dates.
Bobby -----Original Message----- From: Evert van Dijken [mailto:evandij...@gmail.com] Sent: Tuesday, July 27, 2010 4:28 AM To: LegacyUserGroup@LegacyUsers.com Subject: Re: [LegacyUG] Internet Search Feature This is what the Help says about available fields: List of Available [Fields] Here is a list of the [fields] that you can use in your search strings in order to pass individual pieces of information about the person you are searching for. Please notice that there are no spaces anywhere in these field names. Also, the capitalization of any letter in the field name does not matter. [Surname] is the same as [surname] or [SURNAME] or [SuRnAmE]. We use mixed case because it is much easier to make out field names that have more than one word. [GivenNames] [FirstName] [MiddleName] [Surname] [WholeName] [BirthDate] [BirthDate_DMY] [BirthYear] [DeathDate] [DeathDate_DMY] [DeathYear] [StartYear] [EndYear] So I think if Bobby enters [BirthPlace] and [BirthCounty] in the search string Legacy will not pull this information from the database. I think if ancestry.com is using place names in the search string legacy should be able to use [BirthPlace] etc. If Legacy does this allready the Help page should be updated (6 - 132).
