I am using the newest update of the Legacy program. I decided that it was time to do some "major" clean up work in my family file... and one of the things that I am doing is checking to see that events that are marked private are really supposed to be private. I have a tendency to "grab" a bunch of information when I can go to a genealogy website on either ancestry or family search, copying and pasting the information into an event named "Found" with the idea that I will go back and put that information into the appropriate event. The "Found" event is marked private because until I deal with it, I don't want the information to print in a report. If I just change the event name, I don't always remember to change the private spot. That is the reason I am going back over my work to make sure census information, etc is not marked private so that it will show.
I do have some events that are marked private automatically, i.e. medical because there are certain things that family members do not want mentioned in a report or they wish them to be private until after their death. They remain medical events and I have discovered that these events that are automatically private can not be made not private. Is anyone else noticing this? And is that the way it is supposed to be? I can go through and change the event name to something else if that is the only way I can make them not private. Thanks for your help.
