Hahaha Tim, I agree with your comments re: time and money... I am similar to Nancy and find flags the way to go.

Hi Tim, Others have suggested a custom Flag, or Roles on the Standard tags, which are good ideas. But in this case I prefer separate tag types as you are thinking of doing. However, in my case I do the reverse of what you choose to do. I have BirthAssume, Marr Assume, and DeathAssume for people where I do not have what I consider definitive citations. But as you note one can easily change such a tag type to the Standard name when one is able to cite better documentation. Whichever way one indicates the difference, an advantage of using a separate tag type is that they can be color coded to be different than the Standard tag types. I find that even easier to spot than to just have a different tag name. I have even gone to the trouble to customize TMG so that the BDM Hotkeys will invoke these "Assume" tags for new tags and will be used for new people. (Ask how if you want to also do that.) I can then use the Secondary Output on reports to set Flags for people who have "Assume" tags of interest, but also Filter on some other criteria to focus my research. Of course one could Filter based on a combination of Flags. But I find colored tags more "in my face". Hope this gives you ideas, Michael

Dennis, Re: dates of parents on Family Group Sheet - under Report Options, Dates, Lifespan of parents - I had checked date to date, replaced that with None. Marriages - they are all primary because all 4 wives were different people. Terry - I agree with you, but a journal report is the book I thought I might write and finally decided it I would never get it done. Sally - I have finally decided you are correct. I did not want to waste a whole generation of the pedigree chart on her half brother with whom she is already in contact. I also do not want to slight the other two children. (Children! We are all over 65!) I think I will send her a 'brief' journal report then write up a more detailed story of each ancestor separately, as I get them completed.

This would be an excellent situation to use roles. For example, you could add a role of "certificate" or "need certificate" to each of the existing tags using the same sentence as the principal role. You can then run a list of people with a birth (or marriage or death) tag where role equals whichever variation you desire. There would be no need to copy tags and you can easily adjust the role once you obtain the certificate. Alternatively, you could set up new flags for death-cert (? = default; Y = have the cert; N = need the cert) and run reports or create focus groups based on the flags. A similar flag could be used for the marriage and death certs.

At 2/15/2019 14:32, John Cardinal wrote >Yes, but why, i.e., what is the motivation to create a project that has a >subset of the people in the current project? John, Erik has a VERY karge project (about 875 thousand persons) and want to delete something like 121 thousand persons. The only way is to delete them individually (obviously unacceptable) or use the Secondary Output of a List of People report to create a new project with the remaining 753 thousand persons. He has apparently run into the 2GB file size limit which prompted him to want to delete these 121 thousand. He has run the maintenance routines including Optimize. But he is still having problems creating the new project and I suspect is still running into the 2GB limit somehow. I have suggested individidually deleting 100 to 200 people at a time and Optimizing until the size of the project is reduced enough to allow the List of People report method to work. I don't know of another way to delete large numbers of people from a project except perhaps editing each database and I don't want to get into that even knowing what I do about the file structure. From converstaion years ago, I recall Bob saying that global delete were just too fraught with danger. I expect you would agree. Still I wish there were a way that a user could generate a text ID# file of small (100 - 200?) groups that could be used as input to delete (mark) those persons. Then the user could review the project and "approve" the deletion by running Optimize. The problem would be that the persons to be deleted could not be connected/related to anyone else in the project. Any such relationships/connections would have to be deleted first. Lee

That would be helpful in that it would determine if the problem is unique to Eric's PC/TMG or if it happens on other PCs/other TMG installations. John

The OP's end target is to delete a lot of individuals from the database. But since there is no delete option for any filtered set, the planned procedure is to create a new project of those to be saved, verify it is complete, then delete the original project and rename the new project with the original name. I'm tempted to suggest creating a complete back-up (including exhibits) and entrusting the data to some other user of TMG -- just to see if that person has the same error after restoring the back-up and running the "new project" creation which is failing here.
I want to send family information to a newly found cousinwho knows nothing about the family and doesn’t seem interested in becoming agenealogist. A pedigree chart with simple family group sheets to expound on families would bethe clearest way to send the information. (Comments welcome) The family group sheet is printing the birth and death datesafter every spouse’s name. I have resetthe report to the defaults but I am still getting these dates. It clutters the report and is unnecessary. I don’t see a way to remove this informationand I don’t remember it printing like that in the past. How can I remove the excess information?

Erik, I asked about the number of datasets because I did some googling and saw issues reported by other users where the number of datasets in the project seemed to be a factor. It's possible your project is so large that some internal limit is being reached and if so, there's no way around it. Without having access to the code, it's hard to know why the LoP would have a limit like that, but the "create a new project" option (forget the exact name) is probably complicated because TMG has to figure out what subset of other records (the events, citations, sources, places, etc., referenced by the selected people) must be included in the new project. Unfortunately, I don't have any good suggestions for you. You could try a GEDCOM export/import, but there are several issues with that: 1 - TMG's GEDCOM export is slow, and with a large export like yours, it will take a long time. 2 - TMG's GEDCOM import is even slower. 3 - But worse, you'll lose data during the export/import cycle. TMG will export witnesses, but I don't think it imports them. You sentence templates and source templates will be lost, etc., etc. Why are you trying to export these people? Are you trying to create a smaller project that has less incidental people in it, or ? John

The issue comes if OneDrive (or whatever cloud sync utility) sees that TMG changed a file, and then opens it up to sync to the cloud, and then TMG trys to change it again. The OS will tell TMG the file is busy at the moment, but TMG isn't expecting it, and doesn't behave right. I believe a NAS unit should work, at least as long as the NAS file system supports the needed file locking primitives, which I thought were fairly common. This method will slow down access to the database. -- Richard Damon
