Re: Italics in fields
My specific need is to break away from the built-in source format and add freeform source information; in doing so I would like to italicize certain words (titles) when appropriate. When I tried to change the font, it changed the entire field. Am I missing something? My limited knowledge of databas...

Re: add a sibling
I'm sure there's a cleverer way, but what I do in that situation is create 'phantom' parents to attach the children to e.g. Mr Smith and Mrs Smith (use whatever your surname is) which allows you to continue until you get the evidence for what they are actually called.

Re: Images for events
Keith, Are there any plans to allow photos for an event in addition to people and sources? It seems like, for example, a wedding photo should be attached to the Marriage Event instead of to both individuals separately.Thanks, Jon Hi Jon If you drag the same image into iFamily more than once then iF...

Hi
I have added a new FAQ at
Where do I put Notes and Comments?
which may explain the way that iFamily was intended to handle the information in the Notes, Comments and Story fields.

Children are sorted by Birth date followed by Name. If none of the children has a birth date then the sort is in name sequence. So, if none of the children has a birth date then, until you have found their birth dates, you can prefix each name with a numeric number, for instance I added three childr...

The default list only includes "E-mail message" I suspect that you have imported a Gedcom file that had "Email" as a Source Type and that iFamily created an extra type to accommodate your data. If you want to combine them all into one Source Type then: Open Sources Add/Edit dialog Click on the colum...

One option is to include all the reference numbers in a separate report - an Index of People report. This would allow options to include Numeric Id, Reference Number, Ancestral File Number .... Creating indexing instructions in an RTF file is problematic because different word processors handle inde...
