[LegacyUG] doing an event search
Hi folks, What I am trying to do is search for a single event that contains a specific date AND description. But when I search, for example, an event date of 1841 and an event description of not looked for, the search returns all 1841 events and all events with the description of not looked for. Can any kind soul help?

Mark, Secondary and tertiary conditions only apply after the previous searches have been completed (see Help Files), so try reversing the order of the searches.

RE: [LegacyUG] doing an event search
Hi Ron, Yes you understand the problem well. I had another look at the search page and tried to think a bit deeper. The primary condition does say “look for whom”, so maybe you can only search for an individual who has criteria 1 and/or criteria 2. What I need to do is search for an event with these criteria. Can this be done? I’m beginning to think not.

I have tried searching as you suggest for gardeners in the 1901 census and 8 were found, so I am not getting the results which you indicate ie. all individuals with an Event-Date of 1901 (irrespective of Event Description) and all individuals with an Event-Description of ‘gardener’ (irrespective of date), which is what I understand your question to mean.

Can any kind soul help? In trying to get a handle on what is actually happening here, I added a single event to a single person. The event-name doesn't matter, but the description, date and location fields were 'what', 'when' and 'Where'. I then tried searching for an individual with an Event-Date Equal To when. The search came up with 15 individuals and excluded the individual to whom the solitary event was added. What was significant about the 15 individuals was they all had at least one event that had no date. Obviously, there are some non-logical things going on with the Legacy Search! -- Regards, Mike Fry Johannesburg Legacy User Group guidelines: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/Etiquette.asp Archived messages after Nov. 21 2009: http://www.mail-archive.com/legacyusergroup@legacyusers.com/ Archived messages from old mail server - before Nov. 21 2009: http://www.mail-archive.com/legacyusergroup@legacyfamilytree.com/ 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).

Re: [LegacyUG] Re: Fwd: no regrets after doing this venture!! Attn: Legacy Suport
I agree with you, Sherry, about other groups being affected, I've seen it on other lists including Rootsweb ones. Can't comment on Google or Yahoo groups, 'cos I don't go there much at the moment. If the person with the hacked account is subscribed, and the list is not wholly moderated (which is unusual in the genealogy environment) there's not much to be done to prevent these spam emails from members' accounts, except for each list member to act appropriately and not click on suspicious links. But what each of us can do is have a little more control over their email accounts, if it is offered, to prevent it from being hacked... I got a warning just this morning on one of my Gmail accounts that it had been accessed from Poland, and Gmail recommended that I change my password - which I did straight away. Having learned a wise lesson from Thomas McEntee in his Facebook webinar, I didn't click on the link provided in the warning (in case the warning itself was bogus, not that I really thought it was), but closed that and went through Account Settings in the usual way. As I was doing this, I mentioned the incident to my partner, who is a software developer and early adopter of Gmail, and he told me of another step I could take to prevent hacking - Gmail offers a two-step sign-in. This means essentially that each time you log in (on a public computer, or every 30 days on a machine you trust) a code is sent to your mobile phone, which you then have to enter into the verification box on the screen to continue. I've set this up for all the Gmail accounts I use regularly now. It will be a bit of a hassle every 30 days when the current code for each account expires, but that's nothing compared to the hassle if one of the accounts is hacked. You may have noticed I said one of my Gmail accounts - yes, I operate more than one. I administer various local community groups and each has its own Gmail account to keep their emails separate from my personal ones (and to make the hand-over easier when someone else takes over my role). It's not that I go around pretending to be other people, LOL!! I don't know what other email services provide in the way of security, but it wouldn't hurt to go and ask your provider if you can't find anything in their Help. And if they don't provide any, consider getting yourself an account where there is such security.

RE: [LegacyUG] doing an event search
Hi Mark, and others, I think you will find that the 'And' operator is working properly. The problem is not being able to select a specific event when using 'Event Description' as one of the parameters. If you select 1. 'Event-Name' 'Equal To' 1911 census 2. AND 'Event-Description'of 'Not Equal To' 'blank' ... it will return the expected results ONLY if there are no other events in that record. In other words, if you have any number of records with more than one event, including '1911 census', the second 'AND' condition looks at all the events in that record, not just the event equal to '1911 census'. There is no way to narrow down the search to find only the '1911 census' with no data (or specific data) in the Event Description field. Note, too, that the 'Event Description' is different from 'Notes' contained in the Event. Hope I was able to explain it properly.
