I find it interesting that with Legacy 6 you can create a report of LDS Ordinances (Incomplete Marriage Sealings/One or More Missing) but not a report of individuals that are considered "Qualified" for ordinance work. What I mean by "Qualified" is that Legacy considers that all information is there for the next step in submitting the names to the temple.
On the Overview of "Updating My Records" using Legacy 6.0 Step 1: Prepare/qualify names in Legacy. I find this interesting because how do you know what 'names' indeed 'qualify'?. What I have been trying to point out is with Roots Magic, when a report of "Qualified" individuals is created, that means that the names listed contain all the necessary information to take it to the next step of checking the names against IGI and continuing from there. Why can't Legacy do this as well? Give one the ability to create a list of names that it considers qualified or 'ready' to check against IGI and so forth? thanks for everyone's help and input; Michael -----Original Message----- From: Dawn Crowley <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: LegacyUserGroup@legacyfamilytree.com Sent: Sat, 31 May 2008 8:27 pm Subject: Re: [LegacyUG] LDS Ordinances Interesting. Since Legacy doesn't put "qualified" into the field, I didn't realize it could generate such a report. I typically hand pick folks to submit, so I use the IGI search screen. One of the things that I like about this software is the many varying methods to accomplish goals. Dawn Kate Redford wrote: >Michael > >Sorry Michael but my previous posting was much too brief.
