    1. [RMagic] Printing a "place detail report"
    2. David E. Cann
    3. Is there any way of printing out a report with the same options as with a place name (including photos especially), but for a place DETAIL? In other words, we've had the capability to do it with a city name all along but not a cemetery within that same city that is entered as a place detail. I am about to report this as a recommended program enhancement, but before I do want to make sure I am not missing the capability to print place detail reports somewhere. For weeks (months?) now, I have been using that wonderful little tool Bruce gave us to split my 5,500 place names and show cemeteries and the like as place details, but I have recently realized that doing so also removes the possibility of printing out a printed report for the cemetery or other place detail that used to be a place name. I can no longer print a listing of a given cemetery when I go to visit, or an album of pictures ONLY for a given cemetery, and that IMHO is a very large step backwards. I understand the cemetery can be included in a normal place name report along with the city place name, but that is not the same thing. I hope someone out there will straighten me out and tell me how to print a report on a place detail identical in options to a place name. Otherwise, I will ask the RootsMagician to include it in a future enhancement. David E. Cann decann@infionline.net

    3. I made the mistake of separating the Cemetery name from the place name when I merged several of the same place names. I saw the place name (city, county, State) had been merged until there was just one place. But when I looked there were almost a dozen cemeteries all together. I do have the source but it is a pain to put all those people back in their cemeteries.

    3. Not, AFAIK. Remains a work-in-progress. Enhancement definitely required to fulfill the potential of Place Details. You could do a query in SQLite to produce a list of persons for a given cemetery. Maybe you could get something useful from current RM from a combo of Named Groups and custom reports but not with pix. Tom On 2012-08-13, at 1:20 PM, "David E.
