Re: [LegacyUG] A Divorce glitch
FWIW, using the same version of Legacy, my files are correct. The dvorced are marked as such and the others are not. Jeff Margaret Bauer wrote: Hi All I downloaded the 28th August build quite some time ago now, and everything has seemably been working just fine. However. I have discovered that when going in to insert a specific couple as now divorced, I found that they were already marked as Divorced. I thought that was a bit strange, so checked other names and find they are ALL divorced, in fact every one of my 43,463 individuals has them as divorced if I peek in the marriage status part. Things were fine before I made the last up load to the 6.0.0.110, as I did add divorced to another couple earlier in the year and all was fine and well. Now, I do not have a clue with so many persons in there who is now all the incorrect ones. Has anyone else had something like this happen? I dare say I am in for a very slow and laborious task ahead now to sort it all, but a bit reluctant to start as I think it will be futile until I know what has caused the glitch to occur. Any ideas anyone. Thanks Margaret ** Margaret Bauer Queensland, Australia [EMAIL PROTECTED] ** *** Give the gift of Legacy for the holidays!

Re: [LegacyUG] Legacy Crashes
Hi Ron, Sorry for the lack of information. I've been running this version of Legacy for some considerable time. Apart from my initial problem (so long ago, I can't remember the details) it's been running perfectly. Nothing has been installed or deleted and I've been starting Legacy the same as always, from the desktop. A couple of days ago, the problem started - I opened Legacy and the opening screen appeared with the usual 'tip'. That's as far as I get. Whatever I click on, nothing happens. The tool bar at the top remains white, with nothing clickable. I can't even close Legacy using the top right x. No message appears. The answer to your questions - It happens on every occasion and no error message. Desperate for an answer, please.

Re: [LegacyUG] Legacy Crashes
Thanks, Alan. At first I though you may have had the same problem as Roy, but obviously not. I have not come across this before with Legacy although it is clear that the loading process hangs at some stage. I would initially suggest that you uninstall and reinstall Legacy to see if this resolves the problem. Doing so will not affect your data files. If not it may help if some of the usr files are deleted before reinstalling but it would be better if someone with more knowledge of these then I assists.

Re: [LegacyUG] Legacy Crashes
I just received a message from you to the Legacy list that was about 9000 KB. I don't know what it contained because I had to go to my server and delete it to stop the download. I have dial-up so I would appreciate it if you would be more careful in the future and not send something this size to the list. I hope that your problem is resolved regarding Legacy crashing soon. Best regards, Beth G. RoadRoy wrote: Recently, I think beginning with upgrading to version 6.0.0.110 http://6.0.0.110 my main data file crashes and become non responding. The first visable observation is that the program stops functioning and the top tool bar of the Legacy Family view goes blank and turns white.After a few moments, the top left of the screen displays Legacy - [Leggitt] Not Responding. If at that moment I bring up the Windows Task Manager it shows two instances of Legacy, both Non Responding. After exiting the Task Manager I click on the upper right corner X and the End Program - Leggacy, This program is not responding dialog box appears. If I click on End Now, after a few moments the normal Legacy program reappears. Sometimes it is responsive and sometimes not. I had a little over 14,000 individuals in the Leggitt database. I exported and removed about two thousand individuals into two separate data files. Both of those new database files appear to function properly. However, the remaining Leggitt database still malfunctions as before. Any help would certainly be appreciated. *** Give the gift of Legacy for the holidays!

Re: [LegacyUG] 8MB attachments
I have been following this and other lists for awhile. I'm convinced that most users have no idea how to trim their replies. I suggest you highlight the parts you donot want to repeat, like anything beyond the immediate message you are responding to. Do this by holding the mouse over the first line then scroll down to the end of the unwanted material. The hit the deletekey on your keyboard. I like to enter the word Snipped so someone years from now know I have truncated the message. I would welcome anyone with more computer savy and the ability to write a clear direction to correct or change my suggestion.

RE: [LegacyUG] 8MB attachments
I really couldn't believe the 8MB, bit so I checked my e-mail list. 8MB is about 8112KB. The largest e-mail that I have has this month is 161KB and that was with a pdf file attached (not from LUG). I have deleted the original start of this thread, but surely the writer meant 8KB? I also suspect the writer is referring to leaving previous e-mails in the body of the text instead of deleting them, not file attachments.

RE: [LegacyUG] 8MB attachments
June, The way I understand it is that anyone can add a 'flag' to an e-mail and it doesn't necessarily mean an attachment. I could be wrong here because I never use them. In IE you can add a red exclamation mark which shows an e-mail of high importance or a blue downward pointing arrow to show an e-mail of low importance. It may be different for each e-mailer programme. Best wishes David S Brookes Polesworth N.

RE: [LegacyUG] 8MB attachments
I may be misunderstanding you here, Glenda. I have understood attachments as being separate files not in the body of the e-mail, and, yes I have to click on them to open them, just like you. I have never had an attachment from anyone in the Legacy user group and that is why I did not understand anyone writing about '8MB attachments'. If, however you reply to a mail by clicking on 'Reply', the whole of the e-mail you are replying to is printed at the bottom in the body of the e-mail.

RE: [LegacyUG] 8MB attachments
In this case, one user offered to help another with a problem and requested that his data file be compressed and then emailed directly to his email account. The user did email it to that email address but then also added as a cc: legacyusergroup@legacyfamilytree.com. This cc: is what then caused this data file to then be sent to everyone on the list. There was no reason to cc: the list. One other word of caution. The file was a .zip file and these can be used to hide viruses. One could make it look like they were innocently trying to send a file for help while hiding a virus in a file of this type. Therefore opening it would then expose everyone on the list. I am assuming though that the party that made this mistake, made an innocent one.

Re: [LegacyUG] 8MB attachments
Glenda, My ISP is Earthlink DSL. It works just like AOL, my previous ISP. The email opens when I indicate by a click of the mouse that I want it opened, the attachment is not opened until another click of my mouse indicates I want to see the contents of the attachment. I don't have to open any email or attachment I don't want to. I saw the attachment, knew what it was because of the earlier conversation and the kind offer to help, felt it was surely a mistake on several counts, and simply deleted the message with it's attachment of 8481 KB.

Re: [LegacyUG] 8MB attachments
MessageDave, I am using IE6. I chose to show the attachment marker (a paper clip). It shows on some posts on the LUG, not all, but there never is an attachment (on the LUG msge) although it often/sometimes shows an attachment marker. That is what I don't understand, why the marker shows when there is nothing there; and why do I (and you, if not others) not get the attachments when others do? Still so much to learn!

I never got it, because neither Yahoo nor Roadrunner accept mail that large. It would have bounced back to the list server.

[LegacyUG] 8MB Attachments
1. I did indeed receive the much discussed attachment. It was a Legacy zip file of a database. I deleted it. 2. The sender stated he had sent the zip file to Henry Peterson. 3. While I cannot speak for the sender, it appears (from the #2 statement above) that he did not intend to transmit the document to the entire Legacy List. 4. I acknowledge that this may have caused problems for some individuals on the list; however, let's stop beating a dead horse and move on to more productive conversation.

Re: [LegacyUG] Legacy Crashes
Everyone, I truly appologize for sending that large file to the mailing list instead of just to Henry. As you will see, I am using gMail for this mailing list. I hit reply to all so I could get Henry's address and then deleted the list from the cc: line. Something definitely went amiss. GMail didn't display the message until after the upload was complete. By then I couldn't do anything about it. I just crossed my fingers and hoped that Legacy did not allow attachments. However attachments must be allowed. Again, I am really sorry for the inconvenience I caused. After I check out Henry's fix I will share the results with the list (without attachment.)

Re: [LegacyUG] Legacy Crashes
Everyone, Henry did some magic and sent the file back to me in working order. Recall that I said I exported two family lines and they both worked well. After I posted my query I also exported the remaining family line (the one I accidentally sent to everyone) and when I opened it it worked well. I then went back and exported the 14,000+ file and opened it successfully. Apparently the exporting process does some cleanup and removed whatever caused the problem. Mary, I am surprised that you were able to successfully open the file. A previous copy of the original file worked well on my wife's machine. However, when I upgraded her copy of Legacy to version 6.0.0.110 and the file was reformatted, her Legacy worked (improperly) just like mine. I still feel there is something in the new version that reacts with my specific database.
