Re: Related Data button for Species

It would be very useful if the Taxon dictionary had a 'Related Data' button like most of the other windows - I know I can get to the data via the WCA1 quick report, but this is quite time consuming to find a specific record

The Survey Window, Documents Window, Names & Addresses Window and Locations Window all have a 'Related Data' button in the bottom righthand corner which gives a quick method of retreiving data related to the specific subject - the Taxon Dictionary Browser and Biotope Dictionary Browser do not - it would be very usefull if I could click on a related button for a taxon and open up the Survey window with all the records associated with the taxon displayed.

Re: Related Data button for Species

Hi Craig,

This is a neat idea but I think probably very pricey and complicated to implement and as you say you can pull out the data via a quick report. Nevertheless I have logged it in the database.

Cheers,
Lynn
