Nikki,

You could, but my point is that every other field is available some how, but
the "repository reference" field seems to have been forgotten altogether.
As Lee indicated below.

Thanks,
Kevin

Hi Kevin

I use a list of people report filtered for burial group location contains
cemetery name.

You could also use list of events reports

Lee,

Yes, I'm confusing things here a little. Below is what I'm referring to
from 31 Mar 2004:

Hi Kevin -

Hmm! Good question! That is not available for filtering. I'll check on
it.

Thanks -

Lee

---------------------------------------------------------

So what we are now saying is that I can use the List of Sources to get the
"repository references," but do not have the ability to see what repository
they are attached to? In a quick glance of the list of sources and list of
repository reports, neither offer the "repository reference" field as an
option. Or am I still missing the point, it's been a long week...

I want to be able to run a report to find for example all the cemetery plots
attached to a specific cemetery and the people associated with those plots.

Kevin

No, because this information is really part of the Source record.

Huh? Why not? I do it all the time. What are you meaning here?

Or you can run a List of Sources. At present, there is no filter option for
this (it has been requested). But it would show if the Source Element is
included in any Bibliography Source Template.

Or next. Or last week. Or sometime. Or never. That is up to Wholly Genes.
They have the awesome opportunity to pick and choose what goes into an
update and thus make some people happy and some unhappy. <g>
