Instructions
Folks, I have been discussing with several of you a problem
concerning the
mail merge program and its refusal to accept 0 in the age field. When
your
transcription arrives in your email boxes we are all seeing a blank
field.
There is a work-around for the problem. Effectively immediately we will
start to use 00 as the entry for age where a stillbirth is recorded. This
will solve the problem, and you will know for sure that you didn't make a
mistake in your transcription. Proofers are asked to be aware of this
problem, and not to mark errors in these cases.
I'd like to thank those of you who took time to point out to us that this
problem existed, and to thank you all for your continued hard work on the
KYVITALS project.
Lynn Penick
Assistant Project Coordinator, Transcriptions
