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
with these criteria. Can this be
done? I’m beginning to think not.
Regards Mark

Mark,
Ah, that is the bit which I did not get! No, you cannot search for a single
Event. All Detailed searches are for Individuals or Marriages.

Not quite! I have individuals who all appeared in the 1911 Census.

Even breaking the query down with advanced tagging will end up with the same

You can do it with Access or LTools. Using Jenny's example, the query
would look something like ...
