When was an individual's information last modified? When was my file last modified?
• Last Modified Window
To open the Last Modified window click on the Modified Date area in the lower right corner of the main window. (Click on the small box
that appears when your mouse cursor hovers over that area.)
The Last Modified window shows a grid displaying the date and time when the Husband, Wife and Marriage records were added and last modified, along with a field showing if the records originated from an import.
On any input or edit screen, clicking Save updates the Modified Date entry even if no change has been made to the information. To avoid this update if no change has been made to the information, use Close or Cancel to exit the window.
Note: If you change marriage information for a couple, the modified dates for the marriage and for each of the individuals is updated.
