Custom Online Source Types. By Lee H. Hoffman <lhoffman@acm.org> (Note: This applies to all versions of TMG) Below are some suggested Source Types for TMG based on my interpretation of the models given in “QuickSheet: Citing Online Historical Resources” by Elizabeth Shown Mills. These Source Templates use the standard TMG Source Element Groups and the standard TMG Source Elements except for five Custom Source Elements. . — Basic —FF: [AUTHOR], “[TITLE],” [RECORD TYPE], [SITE OWNER], [SITE NAME] ([URL]: [ACCESS DATE]<, [CD]>.SF: [AUTHOR], “[SHORT TITLE]”<, [CD]>.B: [AUTHOR].

TMG Cheat Sheets. TMG Codes, Variables, and Shortcuts On this page are various cheat sheets and helpers I have designed for use with The Master Genealogist® (TMG). As a compulsive list-maker, finding ways to record the myriad of options available for different functions not only helps me stay organized and remember my preferences, but also helps me learn the program.
Since the genealogy community at large, and the TMG community in particular, have given so much to me over the years, it seems only fitting that I give back to them by providing these little nuggets for any and all who care to use them. These are posted without copyright for a reason. I am making no special claim on them, and I hereby extend my unqualified permission to edit, add, enhance, modify, delete, fold, spindle, and mutilate as suits your needs. You may repost, mirror, or link to this page, and pass them out freely to anyone, modified or original, in any form (paper, electronic, telepathic ...), with or without credit. ~DeAnna.
