As a long-time user of RM in its various iterations, a report I want to make has got me a little stumped. I made an initial report but it's not quite what I want.
I want a report of people who are in an 1850 census, no matter the state. I keep an Excel spreadsheet of people/families I've found so that when I find the information and don't enter it into RM right away, I have a record of who I still need to put in. You know how it goes -- once you start looking for somebody on Ancestry/Family Search, etc., it's too easy to keep finding things and the "I'll enter the info later" rears its ugly head. Arghhhh!
Here's what I need it to be:
Name (last name, first, etc.), RM record number, census date, census place.
Sounds easy enough, right? The initial report has the census dates, places, but I only want it for 1850 and not every census they're in.
Any suggestions on setting up the custom report?? Thanks for your help.
