Subject: [FHU] Census and other Queries
Date: Wed, 30 Oct 2002 11:16:42 -0500


Hi,
Can anyone help with the following?

Census.
I cannot find appropriate colums in which to record relationships and status values from census returns.
e.g. married / unmarried - for status
head / wife / son / daughter / servant / etc. for relationship

Update query.
Is it possible to create a query which would update the value of a column for all rows satisfying a condition?
e.g. I have imported a large GED file, and want ot globally update the source surity to "primary source" where the source is recorded as a statutory record.

The manual option would be tedious and very time-consumming.

I cannot find references to these in the documentation.

Regards,
Bob Crosbie
