Walt,
I attach them to the Burial tag. But if you want to control the
printing, you might want to create a separate TOMBSTONE or IMG-BURIAL
tag so that you don't have to print them every time you select exhibits
to tags. If I did that, I would make the sentence <[M]> and only attach
the tombstone image and sort it one day after the burial. By the way, I
have a language I call tabular, and I include the BMDB tags (with the
tombstone image attached) and I use the person's REFERENCE number to
keep up with where they are in the cemetery, and it makes a wonderful
cemetery listing. I created a NAME tag called Name-Burial, and I put
the name of the person as listed on the tombstone.
The sentence is: [:CR:][:CR:][BOLD:]Burial[:BOLD][:CR:]<[D]> [:TAB:] <
[L]>[:TAB:] Name on tombstone-[R:Interred]
It prints
Rebecca Jones

Born (snipped for shortness)
Married (snipped for shortness)
Died (snipped for shortness)
Burial
On 14 Jan 1881 in the John Jones Cemetery, Rutherford County, TN
Name on tombstone-Rebecca Allen
Then the image prints (or at least it will once we can use word
processor output. Does now in SS)

Subject: [TMG] Tombstone tag

I have some tombstones I have read and need to create a tag to document
them, but I feel lost when it comes to creating a tag. Can someone give
me
pointers on what I should do here?

Thanks

Walt
