You have to be careful if you have a person editor open at the same time 
as the census editor.

It looks like you are using an old version.  Try running the latest version.

I don't think that many people use the report.  Some of the census 
definitions have a large number of columns.

If we add extra columns we should really define them in the xml.

In the earlier versions the name was taken from the database, rather 
than entered by the user.  The newer versions just use the name in the 
database as a default.

Try adding the census gramplet to the bottombar of the person view.
