Hi, I've searched the archives after being off the list for a while but don't see exactly what I am seeking.
I would like ideas from anyone as to how to enter census data so that it appears as a narrative rather than just facts. My ultimate intention is to create a narrative book report to give to family members. (However, for my own personal use so that I can see at a glance which census years I have found for each person, I also want to have the census show up in the Events list.) 1. 'Where' would the best place be to enter the census information so that it prints out as a narrative? 2. Is there any way to have a pre-created 'fill-in narrative template' for each census year? 3. Is is best to make the wording include all the census questions that were asked, even if they do not apply to the person? (For example- whether they had an occupation, or 'did not' have an occupation listed). Or, is it best to include just the information listed that pertains to each person? 3. How can I enter the census info for every person but just have it all show up in narrative form for the head of household, not every family member, when I print out the narrative book report? (If I'm not explaining my questions very well, please let me know and I'll try to do better.) thank you, elizabeth Legacy User Group guidelines: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/Etiquette.asp Archived messages after Nov. 21 2009: http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/ Archived messages from old mail server - before Nov. 21 2009: http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/ Online technical support: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/Help.asp To unsubscribe: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/LegacyLists.asp
