What leads you to think you have a problem with these? Because there are a lot of event types. Are you wanting to check all event types for all individuals and print out a list of duplicates to clean up? What catches my eye is your "with parameters that I specify"... My gut feel is that it would be less time consuming to just look at the events for the individuals in the family unit you are working on at the time. Wait--I'm assuming they are already sorted by date. Maybe you could use the global "sort events by date" first. Then as you work on each family/generation, scroll through each individual's events. Duplicates should jump out at you (unless I'm totally missing your point). If on the other hand you know you have problems with census records, maybe a search would be quicker. Search, then tag, then work your way through the tagged individuals. --P
