Pres, I'm still working with Legacy 7.5 (perhaps, I should have mentioned that in my original post), so I don't know if Legacy 8 processes gedcoms from ancestry.com any differently.
Whenever I do an Import from GEDCOM file (>File >Import from > GEDCOM file...) I always import the data into a NEW Legacy family file, and after choosing the file to import and clicking the "Start the Import" button, I always click on the "Don't Assign a Source" button on the AutoSource Reminder screen that is then displayed. Using this process I never get any message saying that all sources will be stripped out or anything similar. I'm not sure if selecting different options would result in such a message. I hope this helps Cheers Alan -----Original Message----- From: grayscot2 [mailto:graysc...@gmail.com] Sent: Monday, 13 January 2014 3:31 PM To: LegacyUserGroup@LegacyUsers.com Subject: RE: [LegacyUG] File ID's Alan, When I tried to import an Ancestry gedcom into Legacy 7.5, it was indicated that all sources would be stripped out. Is that still the case with L8?
