Viewing all the citations for a given person

[DanDennison84 0]

Hi everyone,

 

I've tried searching for an answer to this but no luck so far. I would like to see all of the citations entered for a given person. Is there a view that does this? Right now, in Person Detail view, I'm just clicking on each tag, selecting Edit Tag and looking at the citations. I know I can get lists of all citations or all the citations for a particular source, but how about all the citations on a single person?

 

Thanks,

Dan

Keep in mind that citations are linked to tags, not people. You could do something like this...

 

List of Citations report

Filter

Linked name... Principal ID = (some ID number) OR

Linked Event... Principal ID = (the same ID number) OR

Linked Event... Any Other Witness ID = (the same ID number) OR

Linked Relationship... Child; ID Number = (the same ID number) OR

Linked Relationship... Parent; ID Number = (the same ID number) END

 

That will list the citations for all tags that the person would be linked to.

I do it a different way. When I am want to see how much evidence I have, I generate an individual detail report with both footnotes and a bibliography, and save it to screen. I can then examine the citations I have for each tag, as well as check for spelling, form of footnotes, and inconsistant dates for birth, marriages, births of children, military service, etc. This works better for me than trying to look for all this on the individual detail box.

Thanks for the help again everyone. Doesn't sound like there is a way to do what I'm really looking for. It sounds like I can at least generate reports though which will have to be good enough.
