Re: [LegacyUG] digest
Hi Kristine, The mail server Legacy is currently using doesn't have a Digest format. Do you filter your Legacy mail into its own mailbox? That is the easiest way to handle a high volume mailing list as you can sort the mail various ways. As far as I know you can't sort a digest. Most mailing systems have a way of automatically transferring particular emails to another box. Cathy At 12:03 PM 8/09/2006, you wrote: Is there any way to sign-up for digest form?

Re: [LegacyUG] User group archives?
Hi Jeff, The current archives are limited as Legacy changed mail server in June and older messages are no longer available. The search wasn't working at first but appears to be now though searching archives for what you want to know can be as difficult as searching Help. You have to enter the right search word. Do ask whatever questions you need to. We're a pretty patient group and repeat ourselves often :-) If you haven't found the Tips pages yet, take a look at http://www.legacyfamilytree.com/tips.asp (linked from the Legacy Home Tab) Most of these are also in the Help file but there are more pictures in the web version. Also take a look at Legacy News which often includes helpful articles.

[LegacyUG] OT - Electronic Planner Sofware
I hope that the administrator will let this get through - then all other exchanges should be done individually. I am looking for what I call an electronic planner that consists of a various day views, addresses/contacts, notes areas. I have looked at AnyTime Organizer - not that impressed as it comes across as being to "DOS like" meaning it is like the early days for those of us that remember those; Franklin Covey Plans Plus for Windows XP - nice interface, does a lot but is up there in price. Those are just the two that I have spent some time with. Does anyone use this type of software? If so, can you drop a note of what you use, your experiences - likes / dislikes, experiences with support, etc, would be nice it the addresses/contacts would interface with the email program such as Thunderbird.

[LegacyUG] Cannot update; bad gedcom import
I am very new to Legacy and am just starting to explore it. I have however already hit 2 problems that concern me. Perhaps I might get some guidance here. 1. From the program's home page, I tried to update and it just would not connect even though I have excellent broadband access. The internal browser in Legacy does not seem able to connect at all. I entered the Legacy URL and clicked on go, but it could not connect at all. Both IE and Firefox connect fine on my system. Is there a setting I should set up for the Legacy browser to work? 2. I imported a complete gedcom which included sources, etc. The main data seems to have imported correctly but none of the sources were imported - that I can see, and none of the events or notes. Is this known bug? Thanks.

Re: [LegacyUG] Before 1850 ?
Debbie, Have you looked under Options>Customise>Dates? You can set the ways in which you wish to display dates here. 1818-1824 is not a vaild date but between 1818 - 1824 is. If you have "Check Formatting" set then Legacy will not allow the format which you have used. Similarly check the right hand column on that screen to see that you are using the correct construction for before.

Re: [LegacyUG] Before 1850 ?
Hello Kevin & Gelder, Thank You for testing this. I had thought I used question marks before the latest update. Debbie Freeman -- Debbie, I tried a test inputting a son for one of my ancestors. I entered "1818-1824" in the birth year and "Before 1850" in the death year. It worked. The "parents" were both born in 1808. I am using Legacy Deluxe version 6.0.0.110. When it would not allow you to do the same with yours, perhaps one of the parents was born too close to 1818. Kevin McMillan -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Perhaps the date field didn't like the question mark you included in the entry " Before 1850 ? ". Try " Before 1850 " without the question mark.

RE: [LegacyUG] Relationship Calculator - Runtime Error 380
Cary It's possible you have an error in an option that is (improperly) crosslinked to the picture option. I've seen this sort of "funny" before. Choose the smallest number of generations including The Pilgrim Stone that fails in that report so that you can run reports quickly.

Re: [LegacyUG] Question on Event- Follow up to AKA question
THANKS I had looked under Report Options over and over, and there it was on the first page!! I took out the Insert Underlines, and VIOLA, all is fixed, both problems? I had the Event Narrative selected, so not really sure why when I changed the Insert Underlines and went to a Report/Book/ both problems were fixed, but just so happy that all is well.

[LegacyUG] Question on Event- Follow up to AKA question
Hi, Still have a problem, and probably missing something obvious! First created an Event under the Master List- Name-Alternate. When I created this Event, I added a sentence under "if Description only filled; "Ancestors or Decendants for [Name] can also be found with the following alternate spellings:[Desc]"- without quotes Moved the alternate spellings of the last name to an EVENT - Description field (from AKA). At the bottom (still in my Event Name-Alternate), the sentence reads perfectly. Works a treat. I then go to Reports/Book/ Descendants/ and the sentence does not appear. All I get is Name-Alternate + the Desc field with the list of names. Also after the last name I entered there is __, __. __. - about 6 of these? Why isn't my sentence appearing? (I have the very latest version-Deluxe), and why the added spaces?
