Re: [Phpgedview-talk] Export data

[Dick K. <di...@ka...>]

James,

I was looking for possible errors but could not find them with my data.
As I want to improve the product I ask you to send your data so I can check
it against mine.

The logic for excel is as follows.
Produced is a SYLK format excel file (this is plain text excel references)
In my default output I produce a row for every individual and every
relation.
On those rows surname, birthname, birth/deathdates and places of person (on
relation date etc of relation)
On the row there is a refernce to the row of the father and/or mother
The rest of the information is put in a NOTE field according with de GEDCOM
tag.

And yes I follow the Patriarch list. This means that the list is alphabetic
and the families are groupes together with a numbered (x.y.z.p.q.r....)
position relative to the patriarch

I hope to hear from you

Dick

I was wondering what the end of the output line meant:

Output in EXCEL (SLK) format on the following files (first use Patriarch
list):

but that did not change the errors for me. Can you not put the Patriarch
list logic into the SLK export?

My intent was to be able to use the data in EXCEL/ACCESS to create reports
not available in PGV. Specifically, I need to report all families with
children and maybe even a list of Places. I need this to make up the
shortcomings in the Search feature, as I work on a one name study.

I ended up using the GEDCOM text file and spent most of a day using find
and replace to strip out the unwanted data and to create tables of families
and individuals with name and birth/death dates.
