See the Folder C:\Legacy\Timelines\<Language>\ for the files. They're all plain text files, in a kind of CSV format except instead of using commas, the | character is used as the field separator. The first record is a kind of file header and the rest of the lines comprise the data records. The actual specification is almost self-explanatory, so I won't waste time on that! You can work it out for yourself. Since this is a particular format, you're unlikely to find a repository from which you can download other files. By all means do your own research, but then you should use the built-in Timeline Editor to enter your research data. Alternatively, you could also use Excel or OpenOffice Calc to create the files. An exercise that is probably best left to those users that can be bothered :-) -- 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/legacyusergroup@legacyfamilytree.com/ Online technical support: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/Help.asp To unsubscribe: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/LegacyLists.asp
