Named Lists
It is often useful to be able to put together, and keep lists of records.
Here are just some lists you might want to keep:
- a bookmark list as a shortcut to frequently accessed records
- a list of work-in-progress records
- a list of possible duplicate records you wish to check
- a list of records where Family Historian re-sequenced the fields,
and you asked it to create a list of updated records for you to
double-check
- a To-Do list of records that you plan to work on when you visit
record office X (with notes about what you plan to do)
- a list of records you want to delete
- a list of records that you wish to edit, grouped together for ease
of access
- a list of records you have selected for a report
- a list of records you wish to send to someone
- a list of pictures (Media records) waiting to be linked to other
records
- a list of famous or infamous people
- a list of relatives to invite to a reunion
- a temporary list to be used in conjunction with queries, to allow
you to effectively create more complex queries
In short, Named Lists can be used in a variety of different ways, and
for a variety of different purposes. Unlike Record Flags which can only
be used with Individual Records, you can add records of any type to any
Named List.
