I found this in the Help File - press the Help button when the window shows the Core and Core+ fields. Selecting a Location As you scroll up and down in the list and highlight specific lines, the location on that line is filled into the two main core fields at the top of the window, Core and Core +. The Core field shows the regular location name as found in the list. The Core + field adds any other location pieces that were attached to the incoming place name. For example, let's say that you were looking at a person's Individual Information screen and the Burial location field contained Hilltop Cemetery, Benton City, Benton,. (Notice that there is no state or country name.) After clicking the Geo Location List icon at the end of field, the Geo Location Database window appears with Hilltop Cemetery, Benton City, Benton, Iowa, USA in the Core + field and Benton City, Benton, Iowa, USA in the Core field. The Core + field has the non-standard Hilltop Cemetery kept in it. But notice that the state and country have been filled into both locations, and notice that there are two locations down in the list, one in Iowa, USA and one in Washington USA. Because the top location in the list is highlighted, its pieces have been filled into the Core + and Core fields. Now lets assume that you know that the correct location is in Washington. When you click on the Washington location line down in the list, the Core + and Core fields change to include the state of Washington and USA as the country. Hilltop Cemetery is also retained in the Core + field. -- Regards, Mike Fry Johannesburg Legacy User Group guidelines: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/Etiquette.asp Archived messages after Nov. 21 2009: http://www.mail-archive.com/legacyusergroup@legacyusers.com/ Archived messages from old mail server - before Nov. 21 2009: http://www.mail-archive.com/legacyusergr...@legacyfamilytree.com/ Online technical support: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/Help.asp To unsubscribe: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/LegacyLists.asp
