New Capabilities

  • Customize the Name List view to show any fields you want!
  • Sort the Name List view on up to three fields. For example, sort by name, then by birth date.
  • Speed Up entry of Source/ Citations. Memorize citations. Select from a list of recently memorized or recently used citations.
  • Merge citations of a source. You can even have AQ automatically merge duplicate citations as they are created.
  • Detailed Change Log. AQ will keep a detailed log of most changes to the file. This is particularly useful if you are Collaborating, as you can see who made the change!
  • Generate IDs The ID is typically used to aid in auto merging, or in identifying how someone is related to a root person. Set the ID to:
    • The RIN number
    • The Ahnentafel Number for direct ancestors
    • A relational code for those who are not direct ancestors
  • Edit and Delete Marriages from the Marriage search screen.
