HI Nancy;
Go to Options > Customize (Or CTL-Z)
Click on the OTHER tab.
Near the bottom left is the Geo Location Database.
Click on the Database Maintenance...

Now, we need some information here....
There are 6 regional database:
AF - Africa Region  (5.5 MB)
AM - Americas, excluding USA  (4.7 MB)
AS - Asia  Region  (14  MB)
EU - Europe Region  (9.5 MB)
PA - Pacific Region  (2.1 MB)
US - United States Region  (2.9 MB)

The US is the one you needed to have downloaded from:
http://www.legacyfamilytree.com/GeoDownload.asp

If you have not done this, then one you maintenance screen:
Click Download

If you downloaded it to your Hard-Drive then:
Click Import

Now navigate to where you have downloaded the 'US' file.
Select it and click open..

Legacy will now add it to, or create, the Geo Location Database...

If You only wanted the 'US' and not the others, the go down the maintenance
screen and clock Delete first..

When it finishes importing, it will give you a screen of what you have in
the database.
Read and click OK
If you want to add others, repeat the Import routine...

When you are finished adding the regions you need,
then you can click Compress to make the access faster.

When all done, close the panel.... all done


I saved all 6 database's in a separate folder so I can refresh the database,
at will, with out downloading them again.
One of these day's there might be an updated database or a patch file to
update the database.
We have been waiting for several years for that to happen....


Hope this gets you going again...

There does not seem to be a way to check what you have in your database with
out trying to re-import something you all ready have, and then it will
complain, but will also tell you what you have and don't have in your
database....
It would be nice to get to that display directly, but I don't see any way to
just Check the Status of the database file..

Subject: Re: [LegacyUG] geo location database


In my geo data.  I thought that I had clicked on something in options or
otherwise that tells the geo that I only want to look in a certain part of
the world.

It doesn't even bring up the option of a State in the US.

skip, skip, skip, 'Trinidad and Tobago', there is no
New Egypt, but there is a 'New Jersey, , ,T&T'. Is
this in your GEO or in your Location list?
