Hi Bill, The easiest thing to do would be to revert to a backup. I hope you make regular backups and keep a few.
I can't try to reproduce your problem as I don't know whether you were selecting from the Master Location List or the Geo Database or ?

Gaak! I just discovered that I have 246 people under the location "Vivian, McDowell, West Virginia, USA." First, I don't use that format; I would use "Vivian, McDowell Co., WV." Second, I don't know if there ARE 246 people in Vivian, WV. What apparently has happened is that I recently looked for Vivian, then used Select to add that to one record. I would normally go back and change the entry to my usual format. (I have two people from Vivian with my format.) That means Legacy has decided, on its own, to add this location to 246 or more entries. (I fixed a couple before realizing that "Houston, we have a problem.") I don't appreciate the extra work it will take to fix all these. On the couple I have found, Legacy had replaced the original entry with this false one. So now I have to go back and find where everybody was really born or died or whatever! If I'm lucky, it may be just where I had only "WV". That's the last time I'll let Legacy put in my locations. I'll find them and type them myself! Gaak! Bill Hurst, unhappy camper.
