Keith, Yours is a very good idea. Thanks for sharing! --Paula
Locations were something that I had a good deal of trouble with in terms of being standard, informative, good output etc. I initially had the same problem of duplication in output which show both location and address. So what I do now is this. All my locations have 4 standard levels, like this Hutton Rudby, North Yorkshire, England, UK I have this because I can always fill 4 levels of information starting with town/village, whereas I might not know a parish etc. Where I have further information about an address i.e hospital, church, street etc I add it in the address. Now, the trick I use so that the whole address doesn't repeat is to use private marks to identify text I don't want to print. So my addresses end up looking something like this Name: = [[Hutton Rudby, All Saints Church]] Address = All Saints Church In many reports this will have the effect of combining the location and address to read Hutton Rudby, North Yorkshire, England, UK (All Saints Church) Note I only enter as much additional data as I need in the address fields, although I could have put the whole address in and continue to use the [[ symbols to mark text not to print. By putting the name as [[Hutton Rudby, All Saints Church]] all my Hutton Rudby addresses will be in order in the address list, but I can still pick out the specific street church etc. Hope that is of some help.
