Version 3.7.0.0 Released

While you are about it, could you please now add the Referral Report census reference for ex-pat soldiers? I am still unable to export the report to Excel.
Perhaps a default value of "?" might help others in the future? If the report can be exported then missing data can be added manually, if necessary.

 

Sorry, I should have been more specific.

The LC Referral Report has a row for my ancestor who was serving in South Africa but because of the difficulties, now resolved by v3.7.0.1, he doesn't have any census reference recorded for him. With a null (or blank) entry, the Referral Report cannot be exported - see post #175 of FTAnalyser Questions thread.

Sorry for delay in replying - I was trying to find the previous reference/post.

 

Thank you for doing that and for the information. A very neat facility. Does it work when one doesn't know where the previous post was?
I knew that I had raised the issue but could not remember where or when. Hence the long delay.

Time for bed now (1am). I will follow up any questions/progress in the morning.

 

Just a note to say thank you to the Alexander and the FTA team - I've been playing

At the moment, I use Generations 8 for my own tree - old, but it works, just - rather like me Over the years, I've added "pseudo-data" in fields that weren't supposed to be used for things like that - eg. I put "c41athname" into "education" to show the name of the 1841 census image. It also has user flags which I have used for LostCousins. Some years ago, when my brain was working better that it does now, I started to write a programme which was going to be MY family history programme. Development stopped as I got diverted on to One Name matters, and now modern programmes like FTM do more of the sort of thing I envisaged. However, I can still use it to extract the pseudo-data and export Gedcom. This I've just sent to FTA. I was showing SWMBO how useful FTA was, and I picked an ancestor missing in the 1851 census, double-clicked to find him - and no, he's still not there, but it showed up his baptism - and more family previously unknown.

So thanks folks, for supplying some useful and motivational software. If anyone isn't using it, give it a try! Who knows what you'll find.

 

Thank you. I was trying to keep everything low key and not make a big issue of it, expecting resolution when other changes were made. However, too much other forum activity occurring at the same time diverted attention. I have made a mental note to not be so lazy in future.

 

Wow. There are so many 'hidden' features in this forum. Thanks for the tip.
I must cut down on my posting and make any searching easier to do.
Actually, I quite enjoyed the re-reading of other's posts while searching for mine!

 

Lets try the forum first and then I will post an issue if not resolved 'immediately'.
There have been so many new additions to the forum recently that I had trouble finding this thread.

I have installed v3.7.1.0-beta3 but the census reference is still missing from the Referrals Report for the soldier in South Africa.
The new report "Census - Census References - Missing/Unknown Refs" shows the appropriate source but has blank Census Reference column.
The "Census - Census Search Reports - Show Entered on Census" also shows a blank reference.
(screen shot had to be removed to shorten post!!!???!!!)

The GEDCOM records look similar to all others . . .

Code:

Is this another 'country' problem or have I missed something?

 

v3.7.1.0-beta4 now gives required census reference in Referrals Report (whoopee) but attempt to export to Excel still bombs for same reason.

Value cannot be null.
Parameter name: source

 

v3.7.1.0-beta6 still has same crash when trying to export Referral Report.
