That box was disabled because there was already a marriage for that individual.
If something is disabled (whited-out in your terms) it's always because there's
something that prevents its use. Think about it: can't click on never married;
Why? because there's a marriage. Remove all marriages from the individual and,
guess what, the box is enabled again.

That box was whited out, Ellen, and the spouse icon was never lighted.
 Anyway it's all taken care of now.  Thanks for your concern!

Re: [LegacyUG] Sharing Family Tree with relatives that don't have legacy

[MJ SA]

When I create a descendants report to email, the family  the entire
family repeats, 3x's, the same descendants, in 3 different colors.
This happens when I create it from my 3 times great grandparents. Does
that make sense?

Re: [LegacyUG] Sample file

[Brian/Support]

Do you already have Legacy open when you try to open the sample file?
You cannot double click on a filename to open it if Legacy is already
running? Use File > Open Family File in Legacy.

Re: [LegacyUG] Sample file

[Ron Ferguson]

Doug,

It does not really make sense to delete the Sample File - it hardly takes up 
any space, and as you say, it will be put back when updated.

You may ask "why doesn't is make sense?". Well, if I wish to try something out 
I use the Sample File, which makes sure that I do not mess up my Family File. 
Secondly if you hit a problem which may be a bug you can test it on the Sample 
File and, more importantly, give the details on this list thus helping others 
to check it out on the same file.

Updates seem to restore it.  I have deleted mine, and it is back with
the next update.  To make that happen when there is no update
available, try the dialog in Windows install/remove.  Many programs
have a "repair" option.  Or run (double-click) the "Legacy7Setup" file
in your C:\Legacy folder.

HTH.

Re: [LegacyUG] Unknown

[Doug Laidlaw]

I was more interested in how to remove them than how they got there,
because that was more helpful.  Anne was saying that nothing she could
do would remove them.

You have confirmed something else I was thinking: siblings without
named parents will need a marriage record to hold them together, and
that marriage is between "Unknowns."

Re: [LegacyUG] Kindle Fire 7

[mbstx]

I have the original Kindle Fire (rec'd as Xmas gift last year) and it works 
great with Families App.  I find that synching via WiFi is easier than 
connecting to my PC.  TelGen has instructions on their website.

Note that the $159 price below includes "Special Offers" that display on the 
device.  I have the one without, which was a bit pricier, I think (gift, so I'm 
not sure).  Marianne

Re: [LegacyUG] Source List Name?

[RICHARD SCHULTHIES]

As far as I remember, Geoff follows the rule, (as do I), never use 
abbreviations. They may not be obvious to future family members. I have about 
10 abbreviations my ancestors used that I will never be sure what they meant (2 
or possible choices).

Good idea, I'd never thought of looking at the sample file for citations.

Is there some reason Geoff writes out the name of the state etc instead of 
using traditional abbreviations?

Re: [LegacyUG] Unknown

[Ron Taylor]

Neither Check/Repair nor Compact Family File will remove the "ghost" marriage 
records.  Those are marriage records which do not contain RINs pointing to 
either of the spouses.  You can find them by sorting the Marr List on Husband 
or Wife and then look at the top of the sorted list for "Unknown" in the 
Husband or Wife column.  If both columns show "Unknown", you can highlight that 
marriage and then click "Options" and then "Remove the Marriage Link...".  It 
is important to realize that siblings are connected to each other because they 
point to a marriage record of their parents.  If you remove a marriage record, 
that will break the connection between siblings.  You may wish to Select the 
marriage record to see if there is more than one child connected to it.  If it 
is a "ghost" marriage record with multiple children, then you probably want to 
add one or both of the parents to it.  If you know the parents for a single 
child, then likewise add one or both
 of the parents so the marriage record will no longer be a ghost marriage.

Ron Ferguson gave a good explanation of what creates some of these ghost 
records.  I have also seem them as a result of importing files.

Note that the Marr List will still show the word "Unknown" even if you have 
Options>Customize>Data Format>Word for Blank Records>(Just leave it blank) for 
individual spouse records that do not exist.

If you have the following settings in Options>Customize>View>Display Numbers on 
Names>

"On all Name Lists" box checked
"On Family View and Pedigree View" box checked
"RINs" radio button set

Then if you have an individual record with the word "Unknown" typed in the name 
field, it will appear with the RIN next to it whereas the "Unknown" that is 
supposed to be left blank will show without a RIN next to it.  Individuals that 
do not exist will not show in the Name List.

Try looking at View/Tree Finder. Hit the Refresh button and then go
examine the various trees. Maybe the unlinked Unknowns will show up
there and you can remove them.

Re: [LegacyUG] Source List Name?

[Tessa Keough]

I think it is because it is best to use complete identifiers. The
accepted state codes have changed over time and of course, if you are
doing international work many of those people aren't familiar with our
codes (just as we might not be with theirs). Always better to be clear
and then use the short form with abbreviations.

Re: [LegacyUG] Unknown

Once you have got them unlinked, they are orphans in your tree.  I
think that you can get rid of them completely by one of the "File
Maintenance" procedures -- perhaps Check/Repair, or Compact Family File.

Re: [LegacyUG] Unknown

[Ron Ferguson]

Anne,

The usual way of getting them is to accidently go to the Marriage Screen,
realise it's an error and "X" out - you should use "Cancel". In my previous
post on ghost marriages I should have said unlink rather than delete. This
may well leave the above "unknown" which you will need to delete separately.

It should be noted that in Legacy exiting a page using the "X" **does NOT
mean "Cancel"**.

Re: [LegacyUG] Changing date format??

[Ron Ferguson]

Pat,

Try Options>Customise>Dates and select the format which you require. This 
should change them all to that format. Also set the Input Format for them.

Subject: [LegacyUG] Changing date format??

I don't suppose there's a way of easily changing a bunch of different dates 
written, e.g. 12/09/2012, into e.g.,09 Dec 2012?

(These are part of some source list names &/or titles.)
