Okay, I double-checked, and the second column of radio button choices for query by example DOES include one that says "Anywhere in field" ... not the same wording as "Contains" in the detail search, but can be thought to mean the same thing. However, it does NOT work for dates. Probably because dates are not stored as dates but as some numeric value that is then interpreted for display/print per your choices in Customize... right? --Paula in Texas Researching: Adair Baker Beasley Benson Betz Bigley Blagrave Burton Chapman Clement Clough Coppernoll Costine Daulton Dinwiddie Doody Ellis Exline Field Floran Floyd Gates Goodale Gordon Gump Hale Harbaugh Hind Hopkins Hughes Hurdle Jones Klein Koyle Laswell McDonald Misner Passwaters Pelton Roberts Roche Ryburn Short Singer Sullivan Weller Williams

There is no button for Contains.

I did try the other searches. Just wondered why the query by example did not work. Maybe I was missing a setting? --Paula in Texas <snip> 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 Follow Legacy on Facebook (http://www.facebook.com/LegacyFamilyTree) and on our blog (http://news.LegacyFamilyTree.com).
