Thanks. I see it now. I just never thought to look for Intellishare. As
Legacy describes it, what IntelliShare is a process. The The field name
really should be Universal ID or UID.

There are at least 2 ways to view the Legacy UID (called "Intellishare"
field):
1: Use the "Index" tab and customize the columns displayed to include
"Intellishare",
2. Use Name List view, click 'Print', and customize the report to include
"Intellishare".
However, I don't "see" very much usefulness of viewing the column (other
than just confirming it's existence".

Universal Identifiers. Legacy creates?/maintains Universal Identifiers
and will export them in gedcoms (tag = _UID) but I've found no way so far
to view them from within the program.

Subject: [LegacyUG] "Universal Identifier"
While searching for persons in my family tree I often see a "Universal
Identifier" in conjunction with a person. What is a "Universal
Identifier" and how is it arrived at? Can it be used with Legacy
software?
Thanks,
Owen
