define repositories in Reunion for TNG

[Derrick]

I can't figure this out for the life of me. I know that I have to define repositories in Reunion before I export my file as a GEDCOM to import to TNG.

TNG needs a unique "repository ID" for each repository (REPO1, for instance). I can define that easily in TNG. Like sources and places and so on, however, repositories get erased and replaced each time you import a GEDCOM.

There is a "repository" field for sources in Reunion, which uses the REPO tag, but that's not the same thing as the repository ID. You can't create and edit a repository like you can a source that will have its own set of fields, at least not that I can see, though that might be a neat feature to have.

In any event, can someone help: how do I define a repository so that it will carry over to TNG each time?

I don't think there's any way to do that because the context of Repository in Reunion and TNG are quite different. TNG is treating it more like a place that can be linked into multiple sources, similarly to how a place can be linked to multiple events of multiple people.

Well, that's a bit of a bummer, though I confess I don't need another project at the moment, which that would be. Thank you for the reply.
