See, I am the exact opposite.
I have 77 places that are in Rutherford County, TN. What I wish was there
was some way when I said show all events attached to places in TN, it would
show ALL the events that have TN in the state field. And when I said show
all events attached to places in Rutherford County, TN, it would show all
events with Rutherford County in the County and TN in the state. And so
forth.
But once we can do a list of places, I figure I will be able to work around
it, so I wait. <G>
I use places to describe in great detail where something happened, so I might
have 3rd Civil District, Rutherford County, TN and 10th Civil District,
Rockvale, Rutherford County, TN. They are both in Rutherford County, but the
are two very distinct areas of the county, and families from one Civil
District would probably not known people from the other. But if I want to
find all events in Rutherford County, these events won't be in the list.
Hope I am making it clear.
