Re: [LegacyUG] Which files do I back up?
Sorry about that June, but like I said I do not remember creating it. I must admit it is the sort of thing I'm likely to to if I get totally cheesed off with the way things are working (or not). I agree with Cathy about saving the colour schemes btw, as these can be a real pain to put back - must think about putting these in the Settings folder as well. Come to think of it might not be a bad idea if Legacy did have such a default folder.

It's one you've chosen to create to save Report Settings etc. I also have created a folder but mine is called Report Options ;-) When you are saving report or web page options, like in all save dialogues, you have the choice of where you save them. It's a good idea to create a special folder so that they are easily backed up. Also give the files a useful name so it's easy to choose which one to load. I have Karen's Replicator set up to save my .usr files (along with bits and pieces from other programs) to my Backup folder - which I then backup to my external hard drive and periodically cut to CD. Like all settings, the .usr files can be recreated but it takes time going through Options Customise etc. Other settings you might want to backup are Colour Schemes you've created.

You use file at times when I think you mean folder - but I'm not sure. Legacy has a Picture folder under the Program folder as it's a good idea to keep all the pictures you attach to Legacy together. Whether you keep them in the folder Legacy provides or elsewhere is up to you. If you don't put the photos you are attaching together in a folder or set of folders, then the only way you have to collect them is the multimedia backup in Legacy. This creates a very large file if you have attached lots of photos, especially if you haven't thought about resolution. Unless you understand unzipping, you also have problems when you come to unzip this file on another computer as it will recreate all the folders from the originating computer. I keep my Legacy pictures in subfolders in a folder called Legacy pictures in My Pictures. I've moved My Pictures so the path is C:\My Pictures\Legacy Pictures\Harris ... This means that the path is the same on both my laptop and my desktop. I like to keep all my Pics together. -- Internal Virus Database is out-of-date. Checked by AVG Anti-Virus.

Re: [LegacyUG] Norwegian birth place question
I haven't seen any of this, and both my yahoo and roadrunner addresses go bonkers. Perhaps hte rest of the discussion was in my spam folder. So I don't know what the question nor the suggestions exactly were. I just want to point out that both Google Earth (which is free, and requires access to the Internet to run), and Encarta's atlas, can find pretty much any place in teh world. Encarta found pretty much all of my little villages in France, and gave suggestions if I was a bit vague or a little off. Google EArth has trouble finding places you don't have exactly right in your format, and could not find cities in Ireland because it has Ireland as UK, and it is no longer PC to call Ireland Ireland. For France, a web site called Francogene has the vagueness of many of the place names given on the 17th century documents worked out.

Re: [LegacyUG] option for Cremation - how long ago?
Not to knock peoples' decisions to use a special cremation tag, but if one wants to avoid special tags in order to preserve portability to other programs, it might be better to put the information in the burial field. Legacy is seriously getting there, but there is still information that Legacy does not put in its reports that PAF Companion does, so people still have to be able to export their data. Nonstandard tags means that your database has information in places where other programs can't import it. After all, what matters is not if the person was cremated but if the remains are in a grave such that future generations can find the gravestone and the cemetery records.My mother and father were both cremated, and then buried, in a cemetery, with gravestones. So if someone's remains were never located in a grave, you can put in the burial place field; Cremated, no grave. If they were cremated and the ashes scattered, you could put, Ashes scattered in Lake Travis, Texas, or, Aunt Minnie kept the ashes, for the burial location. Obviously they were cremated if they ended up as ashes. And people know that to follow the trail of post-death information they would probably want to follow up with Aunt Minnie. It is actually a good point. It hadn't occurred to me to put anythign in the burial field of people whose ashes got thrown in the sea or grace a family member's livingroom mantle, and can you see future generations trying to find where the people are buried! Since my parents have a grave, their burial field reads, Nashotah House Seminary, Wisconsin. Don't know if descendants will want to travel tehre or will extract much useful info about them from the seminary staff, not even about my father's days at the seminary; I couldn't even get a yearbook photo - but they really won't need to know that the bodies had to be cremated for transport and then for storage until teh ground thawed to allow burial. If dedication is your faith's version of baptism, you can put that information in that field and put the explanation in the notes, if you want - or put nothing, if you really don't want to consider it a baptism. For portability I'd use the general notes, not the baptism notes!

Re: [LegacyUG] Norwegian birth place question
Create an Event called NorwayBirth etc. and then don't print the original birth field in the reports. A real band aid but I will be thinking about this more later. Also, just to cause problems, what is the phrasing in the Norwegian language version? This is where it needs to be fixed first? That is why I suggested an alternate to the default phrases for BMD. Once created, each of us can create as many sentence clumps as needed. And the issue goes away. Thanks for your support.

Re: [LegacyUG] Foster children
I haven't done much data entry in Legacy, since I prefer to use PAF for that, but I did do some relatively data cleanup with Legacy, and it specifically involved a couple of cases where I accidentally had people with multiple parents or intended to end up with multiple parents after merging 17th century emigrants with common identities and assortments of theoretical parents - I had several cases where it made sense to do that. I don't remember specifically how to do it but it was intuitive to someone used to PAF and not at all hard. After you enter children, you can change the nature of their relationship with their parents. Usually you either get the menu of things to edit for a specific person and pick edit parent links, or right click on the person and choose edit parent links. I don't know if foster children is specifically an option, but adopted children certainly is, and you can always explain further in the notes. If these are foster children who you are listing as members of the family, they weren't in and out foster children; they must have been raised by this couple, which makes them in the same sort of relationship as adopted children. Though I would explain in the notes. That would help explain, for instance, if you later add the biological parents for the children! If they weren't adopted, they got their birth certificates and information about their biological parents when tehy came of age, if they did not already know who they were. I know because my mother in law was raised by foster parents after being given up for adoption at birth. If she ever gives me information about them (which she really should, since that is who raised her), then I will enter her as a foster child of those parents.

RE: [LegacyUG] Special Characters
It appears only in the output (print) data - it does not appear anywhere, that I can find, in the input fields. It is the third row and I suppose it can be an apostrophe - I magnified to see what it looked like and, well, just weird. It sits there all by itself in a position usually occupied by a period (bullet) for an event. How can I do a global search for the thing (I rarely use search as it confounds me no end) and if located perhaps it can be deleted. This thing is strange..

Relationship ... How .. Equal To ... What .. Related 4.. Click on the Print button at the bottom. 5.. The Row 1 tab displays the fields that will print on the report. The Optional Fields at the bottom are customizable. Just click on the Customize button and select the Relationships field. 6.. Also select the Birth Date and Death Date fields.

RE: [LegacyUG] Special Characters
I now know what it is. It is the accent used in French, but why it is in the characters without an underlying vowel, I have no clue. It is the character under the tilde on my laptop, so you might be able to search for it, now that we can make oneon purpose. When does it appear in the print? Print one page, and look at the preview, to check if it is there, or what doesn't match from preview to print. The wrong stuff should be in the preview, as well as the hardcopy. It sounds like a (turning the computer off wrong/bad) problem.
