Subject: TMG-L: Person View - deceased at __ years
Date: Tue, 1 Feb 2000 17:34:36 -0600


I have this Person View problem:

Emma Brothers (2247) (1902- )
Death * _ _ _ Norfolk, Norfolk Co, VA
Burial * _ _ _ Forest Lawn Cemetery, Norfolk, Norfolk Co, VA
Birth * 18 Jun 1902 Beaufort Co, NC
(Deceased @ ~97 years)

According to the other 12 subjects with similar entries, the DECEASED entry
below the Tag Box should read (deceased) only. All subjects have a place of
death but no date of death. Some also have burial tags and some do not.

I have deleted her record, entered a new record, deleted all tags, reentered
tags, changed the Living Flag, optimized the dataset, repaired the dataset -
all to no avail. What do I have to do to get this person's Person View to
state only (deceased) at the bottom of the Tag Box?

I had another subject with the same problem - in his case, the birth date
was only estimated. If I deleted his record, created a new record with no
birth date then all was okay. If I only deleted his birth and death tags in
the original record, then the # of years still displayed even though I had
no birth or death tags. How can TMG display an age with no tags?

I am completely frustrated - probably not even making sense at this point.
