A belated thanks to Wim for his work around and to Paul for verifying that
I'm not loosing my mind. Looks like something else for Bill to add to his
list.

Hi Phil,

Wim gave you an answer that will produce desired results by using a PLACE as
a repository, but I see there seems to be a problem that no one else has
brought up. You were trying to use an INDIVIDUAL as a repository. The
template is set up as [REPOSITORY] ([REPOSITORY ADDRESS]), which SHOULD give
you something like:

Charles Phillip Rhoton (3115 Tamarack Court #1032; Evansville, IN 47715)

The repository address for an individual would likely come from the
preferred Contact record for that Individual. I thought perhaps, that yours
was blank. However, testing my own record, I got the same results that you
did, my name where the address should be, and I have the Contact information
filled out.

I don't think you are missing anything. Sounds like a variable
interpretation buglet that Bill should look into, or at least, explain. <g>

Paul

Subject: [GENBOX] Another Repository Question


Ther have been a few questions about repositories the last few days but I
don't believe I've seen the issue I'm having posted yet. I have several old
obituary clippings that were in my mother's papers. I have used the source
type of Unidentified Newspaper Clipping for each. The repository is me and
I have entered my name, on different attempts, as researcher and individual
but I get the same output: Charles Phillip Rhoton (Charles Phillip Rhoton).
Does anyone know why the address won't appear?

Regards,
Phil
