Subject: [TMG] TMG-L: Selecting all Research Tasks for people with a Flag set
Date: Sun, 2 Jul 2000 14:14:03 +0200


TMG 4.0

When trying to make a list of all Research Tasks for all persons with a
specific flag set, only Tasks connected to "Person" , not to "Events" for
that person are selected.

If you use the Sample data set just as an example, this has four Tasks in
total. Two connected to "Person" 21 (M) and two connected to "Death" of
person 15 (F) and 22 (F) respectively. If you now try to make a "List of all
research task" report and filter this for "Linked Person: Sex Flag = F" no
task is selected, since both these tasks are connected to an event. If you
instead filter for male, the two "Person" tasks for ID 22 are selected.

In my data set I have created a flag for all persons related to one specific
person, and I want to create a list of all research tasks connected to
people with this flag set, both "person" tasks and "event" task. I know I
can copy all persons with the flag set to a new data set and then create a
list of all tasks related to persons or events there. But it should be
possible to use the original data set and this flag to obtain this list. How
do I do this?
