Hi Victor I too have one note and find it really useful, but never thought of census details to you copy the scans or just the references.

One note includes a number of folders where you can keep notes for anything. I have my licence keys store in a folder under that name. Under this name I haver added a number of sub folders with the names of the software. One of these sub folders is called Family Historian and the licence key stored there. One Note was part of my Office 2010. To make things easier when I do census images I have a folder in One Note which I have added sub folders for all the census years and I copy census references into these. What you can do with One Note is endless Victor On 04/10/2011 9:32 PM, Beryl & Mike Tate wrote: > The answer is a simple commercial one. > Why would anyone pay the price of a full V4 installation disk, if they can pay the lower upgrade price and still get the full V4 > disk? > > Keeping track of Licence Registration Keys and installation disks/software downloads for all your bought and paid for products (not > just Family Historian) does need a little effort. > It should be part of your normal backup regime for all your other important data. > The task of installing FH V2 then V3 then V4 is not that tricky (you do not have to install the intermediate free upgrades). > The task of transferring all the necessary FH data and settings from PC to PC can be far more difficult. > However, the FHUG is on hand to help. > See their Installation Guide at http://www.fhug.org.uk/wiki/doku.php?id=how_to:index#installation_guide > > Regards, Mike Tate > > -----Original Message----- > From: family-historian-users-bounces@rootsweb.com [mailto:family-historian-users-bounces@rootsweb.com] On Behalf Of John Lockley > Sent: 04 October 2011 17:42 > To: family-historian-users@rootsweb.com > Subject: Re: [FHU] Installing FH in Windows 7 > > Linda isn't alone in this problem - it seems to keep cropping up for numerous users. > I'm ok Jack - I'm still on XP and FH3, but whether I upgrade or change my computer I shall buy a new installation disk for V4 to > avoid all this hassle. > Meanwhile, WHY can't those who have paid for the upgrade be supplied with a new version disk anyway?
