Bill,
I think I can see what you are getting at but confess that I cannot explain
all the behaviour which you are seeing.
I take it the you are referring to the use of the "Customising Display"
function in Family View by right clicking the field names. If so then
changing these affects all your files and not just the one with which you
are working. So, I find it strange that you have different presentations
depending on which .fdb file you are viewing (if I understand you
correctly).
In Customising Display, you might like to try saving the settings you are
happy with and then loading them back in for your other .fdb file.
Some time ago I used to have "Occupation" in the last field but for some
reason this disappeared from my list of available fields never to return.
Whilst I am now happy to use it for User ID I would be interested to know if
anyone has found out how to change/add to the list of available fields.

Subject: [LegacyUG] More Problems
Date: Sat, 1 Sep 2007 09:45:43 -0700 (PDT)
Besides the "Error 76" problem I have encountered
another.
I opened Legacy to my main family file. I then closed
it and opened the Sample File to see how the labels
could be changed in family view. I played around with
the labels and when I was finished, changed them back
to the original display I had when I opened it and
everything was back to normal. I then closed the
Sample file and opened my main family file and all the
labels were changed exactly as the Sample file before
I changed them back to the original settings.
Why did the labels change on my main family file when
it was supposed to be closed? The main reason I used
the Sample file was to make sure I didn't goof up my
main family file.
In the sample file I removed the Baptism label and
used other labels, but I didn't like the way things
were displayed so I changed them back and everything
was back to normal in the Sample file.
I then changed my main family file labels back to the
way they were originally. The problem now is, I lost
all the entries in the baptism label in the family
view. The baptism entries have now been moved to the
event/fact portion. I would really like to move them
back to the family view, but I don't know if this can
be done without re-copying them one by one. I then
went back to the Samle file to see if I lost the
entries in the baptism label in the family view, I
didn't.
I don't know why this happened, but I'm having a few
problems with Legacy and Vista that I never had with
Windows XP.
I monitor this list to keep up on what is going on
with Legacy and I never had any of the problems people
were having until now and my problems started when my
other computer had too many problems to try to fix and
I had to use Vista.
If anyone has any suggestions, I would be most
greatful.
Bill
