this is very close. this works fine for those individuals who have user events. but if there is no user event and only the std events then it does not filter to include them. thank you for the suggestion I will use this for those who have user events. there is a user event for birth but that seems to be different than the std event for birth. it would be nice if all events were the treated the same. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Regina Barry" <rmbarry1066@earthlink.net> To: <PAF-5-USERS-L@rootsweb.com> Sent: Sunday, July 10, 2005 4:59 AM Subject: [PAF-5] RE: Events, no source > Advanced Focus/Filter > Select Individual > Filter > Define > User Events > Select User Event Field Type > Source > Does Not exist (radio button) > OK > OK > Show Filtered List Only > > This correctly included the Std B,C,D,B events with no sources, as well as > my custom events.
