This has been passed on to Dave - we found that linking problems are
occuring when either a focus group or tagged group is exported.

Thanks for using Legacy.

Subject: [LegacyUG] Newest build troubles update to my earlier

I am finding that it is not just the spouses being dropped in an export.  It
is also not exporting all the tagged individuals for me either.  I have
looked at these individuals and see they are tagged, not private either,
(but I have the box check to export private anyways).  I see no reason why
it will not export these 500 or so records. Has any one else tried exporting
tagged groups with the new build yet and their success or other?

I have checked and repaired the database, clean and compressed. I have gone
back and tried to bring my old database back in "converting the old backup
again" and still find exporting problems.  I installed legacy on my 2nd
machine "fresh" and tried export and still find it does not work properly.
Dropping the same 500 or so individuals. Tomorrow I will reload the old
build, I hope to hear a cure soon.

I see in the archives my other question answered about intellisync so ignore
that part.

Thank you
Randy

I just loaded the new build this morning and I am running into some changes
in the new build that will make a difference in how I go about doing things
I don't know if these were intentional changes or a programming change that
slipped by. I ask your patience as I try to explain, thank you. 

First I keep three databases, my master db, a pruned db, and a direct line
db.  With previous builds I was able to create the pruned db by exporting to
another legacy file, from the master to the pruned, select export all
spouses of tagged individuals. For some reason this is no longer picking up
other spouses. And has dropped about 500+ names from the pruned db. The
reason for the smaller databases is that I use pocket genealogist and
smaller files are better to work with.

Example:
One instance Joseph Jewett married a second time to Ann (unknown maiden)
widow of Bozoan Allen. Ann is tagged, in exporting with this option selected
it will not pick up her first spouse. In order to search for Ann I need to
have Bozoan included. 

I need to know, before I go on researching using the new converted database
about these changes or should I reload the previous build and restore the
old database, until the next build?

I am sending this both to support and to the newsgroup, maybe someone out
there has an easier way also.

Thank You
Randy C Mack
