Very interesting thread.
It appears to me that the new mapping feature has changed things.
Before that, Legacy "encouraged" us to use just 4 fields for location even
though they made 9 fields available.
Following this "encouragement" meant that Legacy could implement the Geo
Location and USA County
I sent in my repair request the other day. I won't
repeat it at present.

I also suggested to Legacy that they add a 5th place in the Location
field. Would be very helpful for the way I research/track my
ancestors and for how I use Legacy and, apparently, for several
others who have e-mailed me that they use street addresses as well.

You can (in V6 at least) enter up to 9 places in locations (8 commas).

I agree with Bruce that my program is my tool to do things I want, and
I use it that way. I also see the problems people are having with
adding street addresses, cemetery names, hospitals, etc so I have

This is what I do. It may be the long way, but it
works. When I enter in a new Location, I keypunch as
'3407 Bryn Mawr - Chicago, Illinois, United States'.
After it has found and placed the L/L in place, I go
back in and change the place to 'Chicago - 3407 Bryn
Mawr, Illinois, United States'. Some
Well put Bruce. That also works for me in the US.

Phil,
They're obviously obsessed with the mapping feature and too easily led by
the "experts" who think the program's user manual and the instructions if

When I did it for an actual address "Tustin - 2262 Caper Tree Drive,

Hi
Why bother with address? If you enter the address in the location field it
allows you to separately map it using the V7 mapping facility. You are not
restricted to four fields in address as far as I can see. I think that the
duplication you get from using address is to be avoided at all c

If you put the addresses in the "Event" list not the mailing list this
shouldn't happen.
E.g., the plus sign alongside the birth event (before the 'globe'), will
allow you to add an birth event address. Using the house symbol, I think,
fills in the mailing list.
