How do you update Legacy with IGI info automatically? I can find nothing to "click" Sharon ----- Original Message ----- From: Melanie Tucker To: LegacyUserGroup@legacyfamilytree.com Sent: Wednesday, June 13, 2007 8:07 AM Subject: [LegacyUG] Searching IGI Yesterday I began using the search IGI feature. I realize you can click on the Update Legacy Individual button, and if you have clicked "Assign sources when saving individuals," the IGI will appear as a source and the new info will be transferred to your legacy file. Is there any way to automatically source the text/detail of the IGI record? Sometimes it's helpful to source all of that information, especially when it is an extracted record so that you can go back later to verify. If not, has this been suggested to the programmers? I know you can click on the @ button to see the record, but then you'd have to type out all the source detail. I also noticed that the IGI search is not finding most things I search, even when I know a correct record is on the IGI because I've previously found records by searching manually on the familysearch site. I always make sure I have set options that allow for spelling variations and a range of years. One example that it didn't find was when I had searched under Clark S. Burgett, and the name on the IGI was Clark Stephen Burgette. Shouldn't Legacy be able to recognize variations like this as a possible match? When I had PAF I used PAF Insight, which offered some really excellent features and searched more quickly than the Legacy IGI search. I hope there are plans for some enhancements in the future--unless I'm missing some step here. Thanks in advance, Melanie Have you unlocked the real power of Legacy?
