Wildcards and the IGI


By Visitor - Posted on 11 March 2006

Dear friends and cousins,

I just uploaded a little file that lists all the valid queries you can make when searching the Birth/Christening records in the IGI.

To see the file you have to log-in first and then select "Files" from the top menu. Next click "Reference Materials" and then select the folder "Searching the IGI". To open the file click on "Using Wildcards"

I created a Truth Table for all the possible combinations of the first six fields in the IGI Search Form, which are used when searching Birth/Christening records. If somebody has the time and is willing I could prepare another Table for the all the possible combinations when searching Marriage records and then try each combination and fill the Results and Error columns.

Un Saludo Cordial
