Re: [Gramps-users] People with no death date interpreted as living

What I want is both dead people and living people (all-be-it
restricted), so I am not sure how I could use the 'People probably
alive' filter to do this. If you know of a way how to, I am keen to
know.

And thanks for letting me know what the 'probably alive' age is and how
to change it. There appear to be a number of variables in that file that
do not appear in a dialogue box in the program.
