Mike, Further info that may, or may not, be useful When I look in the Event / Attribute List I can find 'Position' with these entries The Position Attribute, Fact Set - <none>; Time frame - empty; Visible - <undefined> ; Status - a tick. thank you, Nev.Ramsden -----Original Message----- From: Beryl & Mike Tate Sent: Tuesday, March 18, 2014 1:02 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [FHU] Mystery Fact If you decide to now use "Title" attribute you can use "Change Any Fact Tag" Plugin to change <Custom Fact> "Position" to Standard "Title".

Yes Nev, that is exactly what is listed when a custom attribute tag appears in your GEDCOM data, but there is no matching Fact Set definition. To get to that state you must have created a Fact Set definition for a Position custom Attribute in the past prior to creating the Position facts. However, in the intervening years the Fact Set custom Attribute definition has either been deleted or has not migrated from PC to PC. Note that such customisations are NOT saved in your Project, but quite separately in the Calico Pie Program Data.
