Must specify additional parameters 0 sexof

[dsmer 0]

Hi

 

I have recently imported some GEDCOM files, which might have contained errors, and which also might have had persons without sex tags in them. I am not sure that this is the reason, but it could be.

 

I now regularly get a messagebox with "Must specify additional parameters 0 sexof" when I use TMG v7. I can ignore the message, and everything works fine.

I can't fix it with the usual maintenance functions. It is not clear which person or persons are relevant, and a listing of persons shows the expected persons with M, F and ?.

It looks like a Visual FoxPro message 94, which corresponds to the the text in error.txt:

 

06-04-2011, 17:28:25 94Must specify additional parameters. 0 SEXOF

 

If I do a retry instead of an ignore I get:

 

06-04-2011, 17:29:15 16Unrecognized command verb. 0 SEXOF

 

Is there anything I can do to get rid of this message?

Only the first error message when you get an error is of consequence. You also need to be very specific about the context when the error occurs. What exactly are you doing to generate the error? "when I use TMG v7" is of no help.

 

Determining the source of the error. It's clearly some sort of data issue.

 

The error is very unusual. I need a GEDCOM to import that will result in this error to test.

 

If you can send me a GEDCOM, you can contact me by clicking on the link.

Hi

 

Did some more testing and found a way to get rid of it, even though I am not sure why.

 

I run TMG 7.0.4 in the Danish language. The error occurs after importing and merging a GEDCOM file like this:

The file is generated by a tool, and it is tested with various validators.

 

The symptom occurs when selecting a person (woman) in the F2 function or when jumping to another person

 

It seems to be fixed when resetting the repeat files and taking a back-up.

 

Best rgds,

Made the GEDCOM. See no structural issues in the GEDCOM and GenViewer has no issues with it. Family Historian reports no errors.

 

The date form used in the GEDCOM does not follow the specs.

6-11-1864 should be 6 NOV 1864

 

TMG does deal with the date form in the GEDCOM and properly evaluates them. Family Historian treats these dates as non-standard (text) and not dates.

 

Imported. Ran optimize, validate file integrity, optimize.

 

Imported again. Ran optimize.

 

Merged data set 2 into data set 1 and deleted data set 2.

 

Navigated using the Project Explorer and Picklist.

 

No error so far.
