3. TMG-L: Document numbers [0.968959]
When I started with PAF years ago, I used their document numbering system. Even if I add the document number it as a file number to each source in TMG, or put it in some other field, there is no output formatting (no ccolumn designing) to the list of sources so that I can list the document number and sort on it. No way to focus on it either? Please tell me it isn't so. -- Bob Sawyer - --------------------------------------------------------------------------- TMG-L The Internet Mailing

Kay, I don't know why you are having trouble. The url points to a pretty simple HTML page. What version of Internet Explorer are you using? What OS (Win 3.1/95/98/NT)? Did you click on the url in your email client, or did you copy the url and paste it into the "address" field of IE? Why don't you email me directly, and we'll try to figure this out...

6. Re: TMG-L: Descendancy Report [0.968959]
Help! Thanks Lee for your quick response but-- I checked the fonts and am missing Helv SS43. I reinstalled TMG 4 in two places, but I can find no HelvSS43 . I had previously removed a bunch of fonts so that I now have 187. I checked the removed ones and it isn't there What could have happened to it? Where should I expect to find it other than in Setting--Control Panel--Fonts? You are dealing with a white haired computer illiterate. > > TMG requires four fonts to be installed on your system.

Lee - many thanks. The notes now print just as wanted. I was trying to make the sentence empty. The repair.err file had every file in the data set listed as damaged and repaired. New import worked fine, and if ever next time I will take down specific errors. Do appreciate the help.

The trouble that you are encountering is that, while BK uses a single field for location, TMG uses several. There isn't a single correct field in which your BK location value should go. Rather, TMG tries to parse it across the various fields. To distinguish the place elements f
