Plus or minus Year Search
Quote from m.burdess on September 26, 2024, 11:19 amIs it possible to create a plus ot minus year search, i.e.
if you select 1980 but want to check from 1 to 5 year either side of that date?

You will need to be more specific i.e. ...
a) is the input format just ccyy ... or something like dd/mm/ccyy ?
b) is the format of 1 to 5 year either side of the date just a number (1 to 5) or expressed in days/months etc.) ?
c) what is the expected format of the end result ... ccyy or dd/mm/ccyy

Sorry for the limited explanation given. The data is that of a Birth index from 1837 to able 2015,that records by Year. What I would like to do is add, the ability to search this data over a shorter time, and not as I am, either by year or 178 years.
The Data is just the year (1970), with no day or month.
As to format of 1 to 5 year, this is to enable you to search either side of the selected date;
so if you have the year as 1970, with a 5 year search, you will be searching from 1965 to 1975.
