Thanks Teresa But it still is not what I want. What I did before is just type a sequence of keys (EXAMPLE) such as "lsssc" and then it would display "Louise Street, Saskatoon, SK, Canada" or what ever you wanted it to type in and what ever sequence of keys you want to use. In this case I used the first letters of each word. It works great for me, when I have to put in location and cemeteries, location and church or location of birth or death or just a location. Now this can be done as I have done it with Legacy 6, but I have forgotten how I did it. Guess I am getting to old to remember everything (LOL). If any one knows could you please post it

To play back the value, place the cursor in the desired field and press F9. " This also works for two additional keys, Shift-F11 and Shift-F12. Note that Shift-F8 is the repeat key. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Gene Young" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <LegacyUserGroup@legacyfamilytree.com> Sent: Monday, February 11, 2008 5:54 AM Subject: Re: [LegacyUG] Locations > Ray Campbell wrote: >> Hi >> Entering the same location in Legacy 6 gets pretty tiresome. >> Is there a way I can enter key letters in the location area such as >> "NWT" for birth location and have it enter "Northwest Territories" or >> enter "RRS" for "Red River Settlement, MB, Canada". >> I would like to make a few of these for entering certain locations into >> the birth locations and death locations. >> >> Ray >> >> >> >> ------------------------------------------------------------------------ >> >> No virus found in this incoming message. >> Checked by AVG Free Edition. >> Version: 7.5.516 / Virus Database: 269.20.2/1270 - Release Date: 2/10/2008 12:21 PM > > Create a dummy location called NWT.
