Toxanne,

No there isn't. But I wouldn't bother because (a) you would loose definition 
by doing so as neither the gif nor the jpg are lossless and (b) if the 
definition is poor it will not improve it. It can be done using a variety of 
software of which Irfan View is just one.

Re: [LegacyUG] Recent Modifications



My apologies, Mike, you are quite correct. Unusually I didn't check this as 
the date at the bottom of the page changes. Then I though maybe it didn't 
show unless a source was added which then shows up in the individual's 
sources, but it makes no difference - still no show.

Ron,

Not so, unless I'm missing something..

If you edit person A, it updates the Modified Date (which shows in bottom
right of Family view).

If you go to another family and edit only the marriage, it affects persons  
B

 C, and it displays an updated date in the same place.

However, if you do a Search (Individual, modified date, after, date) you
will only result in person A.
If you add the second condition (Marriage, Marr. Modified Date, after,  
date)

you will get persons A, B, and C.

Re: [LegacyUG] Readily visible Link Proof

2007-02-11 Thread Susan Daily


John,
Before you start, ask yourself this question: Do most of the people in
your database have proved links to their parents? If so, then the ones
you want to mark visibly would be the ones that have yet to be proven.
So whatever recommendations you get, I would suggest you try to do it
with the smaller pool of names.

Some people might suggest that you not link the names of people you
haven't proved descent for. Not sure how workable that is for you. If
it is simply a condition that you just haven't located true sources
for the people yet, but feel they are real children, then I understand
more of what you are looking for. The asterisk mentioned previously
might help there (maybe put it in the Title Pre. box where it could
be easily added or deleted, and quickly viewed).

Richard, thanks for the reply. I "undid" the merge and supposedly
restored my file to the status prior to the merge. The
marriage/spouse dups are still there. Therefore, the dup issue
must have been created upon the importing of my wife's file into
mine, which results in duplication of everyone in the file. But I
would think that then merging and searching for duplicates should
undo any duplicate marriage links created by the import. I don't
see any options or settings that relate to duplicate marriages
during merging.

I have attached a screen shot of the first manual merge person (out
of 314) that comes up when I use IntelliShare. These 314 were
found by the program to have differences between my file and my
wife's file. You can see that the left side of the screen shows
duplicate spouses (my file) and the right side shows the correct
single spouse (my wife's file). The reason this person requires
manual merging is because I made some corrections to the Birth and
Residence location fields--the differences between the two files
has nothing to do with duplicate spouses.

Since I did my cleanup from the gedcom transfer in MY file, it has
the most correct information regarding place and event names. So I
want to be sure to keep those when I merge. However, I don't want
to keep the duplicate spouses that are showing on the left (my
file) side of the screen.

What do I need to do to "throw out" the duplicate spouses created
by the import of my wife's Legacy file, but at the same time keep
my file maintenance changes?
And why isn't this done automatically?
I'm still not sure if there is something I am doing wrong or if
this is a problem with the IntelliShare feature.

Thank you!
Dennis

RE: [LegacyUG] Printing a Book

2007-02-11 Thread Byron Schafbuch


Hello June

Maybe this will help with what you are looking for:

On the toolbar select reportspublishing center - 
First, highlight any previous selection on the right side and remove -
On the left side select individual report then add -
Click on change person in current chapter -
This will bring you to the 'Select a Report' menu with the 'Individual
Report' tab 
selected, on the bottom, click on the Record Selection button -
On the Report Record Selection menu, click on the button for All
Individuals in the entire family file - 
Close the 'Report Record' menu - 
Close the 'Select Report' menu - 
Now back at the publishing center, you can also use the Edit setting for
Current Chapter to select options for report formatting - 

You can now 'Preview' your report, or print, or generate to file, your
preference. 

NOTE: The 'Individual Report' is a 1-page-to-1-person report.  i.e. 500+
people means 500+ pages to print.  

Also CAUTION: have noticed that Legacy has a definite problem being able to
handle/preview/print/generate LARGE reports.  At what level I am not sure,
but legacy 'hangs' generating large reports.  I have 2 databases I maintain,
one w/300+, and another w/ 13000+. The small one generates whatever I need,
whenever, however, the LARGE one of 13k+, almost always cause Legacy to hang
making LARGE report, even for preview or to make a file.

Hope this helps

Anne,
The zip file will normally contain the path to the pictures starting at the 
Root which is usually the C:/ directory. So by using the extraction wizard 
and extracting it to the C:/ the pictures will end up in the same directory 
structure that was on the old computer (ie c:/legacy/pictures/ or where ever

months. It took me a year (snails pace) to fix 3000

Re: [LegacyUG] I've married my wife--twice!

2007-02-11 Thread RICHARD SCHULTHIES

Find a couple with two identical marriages. Unlink the
'dup' if obvious. The higher MRIN is probably the
culprit. I had this. When you unlink it saves all the
other sruff. Deleteing ERASES stuff.
Sort the marriage list by Surname. the multiples
should show up near the matches. Check that children
are not in the unlink before executing the unlink. Not
a great answer but easier than fixing what was ndone
in the past.

[LegacyUG] photos question

2007-02-11 Thread marilyn cebrowski



I have a really dumb question, as I am older and not nearly as computer 
knowledgeable as the rest of the group.  I have some photos in legacy that 
i have been adding to individules, when i made a gedcom and took it to my 
daughter in laws computer and she loaded it into her legacy as a seperate 
file, their were not any picutures in it.  She seemed to think the photos 
are only linked and that legacy gets them from the persons computer hard 
drive so they only show on your own computer.  She is a new user for legacy 
and not very good with computers either.  Any kind of really SIMPLE 
explanations would be great thanks

Toxanne,

No there isn't. But I wouldn't bother because (a) you would loose 
definition by doing so as neither the gif nor the jpg are lossless and (b) 
if the definition is poor it will not improve it. It can be done using a 
variety of software of which Irfan View is just one.

[LegacyUG] Finding parents of spouses

Re: [LegacyUG] photos question

2007-02-11 Thread Heather Stovold


Well, your daughter is correct.  Legacy stores the path (the location of
the folder on the computer) where each picture is.

You will probably need to do a Backup Multimedia Files - then restore the
multimedia files on your daughters computer.   I'm not sure if the Gedcom
transfers the links or not

Hope this helps some!

Re: [LegacyUG] photos question

2007-02-11 Thread Susan Daily


Marilyn,
In addition to what Heather stated, I would like to note that if your
daughter has Legacy installed on her computer, you could even just
bring her your Legacy family backup file and multimedia backup file,
then do a Restore on your daughter's computer, and it should make it
look like your computer.

A few possible hiccups: Her Legacy folder is installed somewhere
different than your computer stores it, so the pictures may not be
found immediately. You can have Legacy look for the correct (new)
photo locations.

More help can be provided, as you follow these steps. Just ask!

[LegacyUG] Highly Recommend the Training Videos

2007-02-11 Thread Krones2004

I purchased the Legacy 6.0 version with manual and training videos a couple of 
months ago. First I read the whole manual. Then I went through the Training 
Video that came with the Legacy 6.0 Set up and program.
   
  Today I started on the Training Videos - and wish I had done them right away 
when I first put Legacy on my computer.
   
  I just fnished the first of the four videos: 12-Step Checklist to Using 
Legacy Family Tree. Those 12 steps answered a lot of questions that I have 
seen brought up in the User Group. Now I am going to go back through each step 
and follow it on my Legacy program.
   
  Then I will do the same with the other three training videos. I am so glad I 
purchased them. Just wish I had used them to begin with. Would not have so much 
cleaning up to do now. But,  as usual, I was so eager to get my family in I 
neglected the learning part. Oh well, I guess that is part of the learning 
process also.
   
  So I would highly recommend that anyone planning on using Legacy (or already 
have the program) to also purchase those four training videos.

Re: [LegacyUG] Readily visible Link Proof


Hi Debbie,
So long as you've chosen to include Child-Parent Relationships in the 
Report Options, the Sources for the Rel to Mother and Rel to Father 
show on a Family Group Sheet.
For people where there are only sources for these, after the parent 
you'll find (Relationship xx, xx) where xx represents the source number.


I think I may have found a bug as they still show when you choose to 
not include Child-Parent Relationships. However, they don't show if 
you have never chosen to include Child-Parent Relationships.

If you attach a source to the Father (Rel) and Mother (Rel), is there
any way to make this source information show up in reports, or would
one have to create an actual event, such as a Relationship event?  If
one uses the Father (Rel) and Mother (Rel), it would be nice if the
sources attached to these would show up as sources for the Father and
Mother in a FGS.

Re: [LegacyUG] I've married my wife--twice!

Thanks for the help Richard.  I basically did what you suggested and 
things seem to be okay now.  I did find that in some instances, even for 
the duplicate spouse, there were children attached and I had to unlink 
those children, too.  I did this as long as there were also the same 
children showing under the non-duplicate spouse.  Those stayed intact 
even when I unlinked the duplicate spouses and their children.


I appreciate your willingness to help with this somewhat complex issue.

 Richard, thanks for the reply.  I undid the merge
and supposedlyrestored my file to the status prior to
the merge.  The marriage/spousedups are still there. 
Therefore, the dup issue must have been createdupon

the importing of my wife's file into mine, which
results induplication of everyone in the file.  But I
would think that thenmerging and searching for
duplicates should undo any duplicate marriagelinks
created by the import.  I don't see any options or
settings thatrelate to duplicate marriages during
merging.

I have attached a screen shot of the first manual
merge person (out of314) that comes up when I use
IntelliShare.  These 314 were found bythe program to
have differences between my file and my wife's file.
You can see that the left side of the screen shows
duplicate spouses(my file) and the right side shows
the correct single spouse (my wife'sfile).  The reason
this person requires manual merging is because Imade
some corrections to the Birth and Residence location
fields--thedifferences between the two files has
nothing to do with duplicatespouses.

Since I did my cleanup from the gedcom transfer in MY
file, it has themost correct information regarding
place and event names.  So I want tobe sure to keep
those when I merge.  However, I don't want to keep
theduplicate spouses that are showing on the left (my
file) side of thescreen.

What do I need to do to throw out the duplicate
spouses created bythe import of my wife's Legacy file,
but at the same time keep my filemaintenance changes?
And why isn't this done automatically?
I'm still not sure if there is something I am doing
wrong or if this isa problem with the IntelliShare
feature.

Thank you!

Re: [LegacyUG] photos question

2007-02-11 Thread Krones2004

Marilyn:
   
  I'm an oldey also. But you are right. Legacy creates a shortcut to the 
photos and documents that are stored on the computer.
   
  What I do is to create a file on my desktop called Family Photos and keep 
my photos in there. I organize the photos by folders - usually a folder for 
each surname. I also have another folder called Family Documents where I keep 
the scanned documents I use for backup sources.
   
  Then, when I want to either give a copy to someone else or to backup onto a 
CD, I do the following.  First I copy the Legacy Data file (which holds my 
family tree) to the disc. Then I copy the Family Photos folder and the 
Family Documents folder from the desktop to the CD.
   
  Thus, when the person gets the CD, they can copy the Data to their Legacy 
file and the Family Photos and the Family Documents to their desktop. That 
way, the photos and documents are in the same spot they are in for the data 
file shortcuts.
   
  Also, if your daughter is using Legacy, you don't need to use Gedcom. Just 
make a copy of the family file on the CD and she can enter it into her Legacy 
program. Just make sure your file and hers do not have the same file names. You 
don't want to mix and match them until everything has been checked.
   
  Hope this helps.

RE: [LegacyUG] photos question


Marilyn,

Heather and Susan have given you some leads and I would not wish to 
complicate matters but you do not say if your photos used in Legacy are in a 
separate folder or scattered over various folders - if the latter you could 
have problems and you would be better putting them in one folder (say 
Legacy_pics). I am not sure but if the folder(s) is in My Documents they may 
still not show up on your daughter's PC as the full path includes the user 
name (unless, of course, your daughter has used the same user name as 
yourself).


The advantage of having them in the same folder is that when you put them on 
your daughter's PC you will only have to find the one folder. BTW if you 
store the folder in C\Legacy then the path would normally be the same in 
both and no search would be necessary. If you do move your photos do not 
forget to back-up your multimedia files so they contain the new location.

Date: Sun, 11 Feb 2007 16:44:22 -0700


I have a really dumb question, as I am older and not nearly as computer 
knowledgeable as the rest of the group.  I have some photos in legacy that 
i have been adding to individules, when i made a gedcom and took it to my 
daughter in laws computer and she loaded it into her legacy as a seperate 
file, their were not any picutures in it.  She seemed to think the photos 
are only linked and that legacy gets them from the persons computer hard 
drive so they only show on your own computer.  She is a new user for legacy 
and not very good with computers either.  Any kind of really SIMPLE 
explanations would be great thanks

Toxanne,

No there isn't. But I wouldn't bother because (a) you would loose 
definition by doing so as neither the gif nor the jpg are lossless and (b) 
if the definition is poor it will not improve it. It can be done using a 
variety of software of which Irfan View is just one.

[LegacyUG] Master Marriage Status List

2007-02-11 Thread Olds-Wills-Anderson-Simonson Hodges-Harris-Liikala-Jukkara


Hi,

I was viewing the Marriage Status list which currently has 7 items in 
it, one of which is Married.  When I highlight the Married status from 
the list and click Show List, I get No records were found that use this 
marriage status.


Now, I _know_ I have married people in my file since when I run the 
Marriage List report, it contains 1243 families.  Marriages also seem to 
appear correctly in reports and in the descendant and pedigree views.


1. Why isn't the Married status linked to any of my marriage entries?
2.  What are the consequences if they aren't linked?
3. What do I gain by linking the status Married to my marriages? (this 
is probably another way of asking #2)

4. How can I fix this so they are linked?

It's interesting to note that other marriage status items like Divorce 
and Annulled do have linkages to people in my file as expected.  It's 
just odd that the most common status is not linked at all.


I also checked Legacy program help and it explains how to add, delete 
and change statuses, but doesn't really say what the purpose of theses 
statuses are and why they are needed.  So far I'm thinking they are used 
only for statistical purposes.


Thanks for any assistance!

Dennis

 Thanks!!

 The training videos are really popular and I'm always hearing from users
 about how much they have helped them to enjoy Legacy even more!

 It's easy to get started with Legacy on your own, but the training videos
 add a whole other dimension to using the program.  We're really lucky to

I am not sure how far back you wish to go with this but in advanced tagging

RE: [LegacyUG] Finding parents of spouses

2007-02-11 Thread Alice L McVearry

Thanks Ron.  I don't see how that will get me what I want.  There are 1543
individuals in my Legacy file.  1160 of those individuals are related,
including spouses, leaving 383 non-related. The parents I am looking for
would be in that group of 383 non-related individuals.  I think I will
assign another tag number to the non-related group and go down the name
list to try to find the matching parents.  Can't think of anything else to
do but eyeball it.  -- Alice

Ok, thanks Ron. I loaded the sample Legacy database and noticed that 
none of the marriages in that file are linked to the Marriage status 
either. Just wanted to make sure there wasn't something going on with my 
particular file.

To answer your questions:
1. It is not linked unless you type it in. It is in fact a Null 
entry in the feild

2. none
3. nothing
4. Type it in

You can include divorced, Separated etc in reports should you so wish. 
Personally I don't bother. Especially as some on my tree might not be 
too keen on seeing that their grandfather was a bigamist :)

RE: [LegacyUG] photos question

2007-02-11 Thread leo macdonald

Hi Marilyn, if you are just trying to do up a Descendant report or Ancestor 
report and want to include the pictures in the report so they will show up 
in your daughter in law's computer then all you have to do is: go to reports 
and pick out the report you want to send or give her - go to the report 
options - go to Pictures tab - where it says - embed the pictures in the 
file, click the box. Now under the picture of the printer you will see the 
following 5 options - Screen/Printer, Text file, HTML file, Rich Text file, 
PDF file, click the Rich Text file, click create, name the file then burn 
the file to a disk or put it on a USB drive, it will probably be too large 
to e-mail. Leo

[LegacyUG] Sourcing documents and info found on Internet sites and forums

I was wondering if folks wouldn't mind sharing their method(s) of 
sourcing items they have found on Internet sites, forums, etc., such as 
Ancestry.com or a Rootsweb,co, forum posting.  I realize that 
information retrieved from the Internet should always be verified.


For instance, say I found a forum posting on the Genealogy.com forum 
from a trusted source giving me the birth, marriage, and death dates of 
an ancestor I was researching.  I would likely want to enter this into 
my file with a fairly low surety until I was able to verify the dates 
from vital records, etc.


But in the mean time when I add a source for this I was thinking of 
setting it up like this:


Source List Name:  Genealogy.com Forum query
Author:  Person who authored the posting
Title: Genealogy.com Forum
Type: Online Forum
Publication Facts:  URL and Surname title of the specific forum where 
the post was made such as Allan/Allen Family Berwick, Scotland

Details of Source Citation: Message 806 of 921 and date of posting
Detail Text:  text of the posting

Does anyone see any flaws in this methodology?  Can you suggest what you 
feel would be a better way to source this in Legacy?

How about ways to source an email?

If this has all been covered before, please direct me to the archives.
Thanks for any input.

Dennis

Re: [LegacyUG] I've married my wife--twice!


Hi Dennis,

Before importing any file, you are encouraged to do a backup.

Did you? If so, restore your backup and check whether the double 
marriages were in the file before you imported your wife's file.


From the screenshot you sent (which you shouldn't have) it looks as 
if that is the case as the RINs are the same. The RINs for the 
imported file should all be higher (and it's a good idea to make them 
deliberately higher by 10,000 or more so you can see at a glance when 
merging who comes from where - if you start with say 30,001 then the 
end of the number is identical to the original RIN).


If they're not in your file before you imported your wife's file, 
then it appears you've uncovered a bug in the Intellishare. However, 
I just tried an Intellishare merge as I haven't done on for a long 
while. I exported my test file to a new file, made some changes, 
imported it and intellishare merged. I didn't get any doubled 
marriages from the process.


I'm assuming I've understood you correctly and you did export your 
wife's file from your Legacy copy of the file before she made the 
changes. If it wasn't done that way, then, of course, Intellishare 
wouldn't work.


Cheers,
Cathy

At 03:58 PM 11/02/2007, you wrote:

Richard, thanks for the reply.  I undid the merge and supposedly 
restored my file to the status prior to the merge.  The 
marriage/spouse dups are still there.  Therefore, the dup issue must 
have been created upon the importing of my wife's file into mine, 
which results in duplication of everyone in the file.  But I would 
think that then merging and searching for duplicates should undo any 
duplicate marriage links created by the import.  I don't see any 
options or settings that relate to duplicate marriages during merging.


I have attached a screen shot of the first manual merge person (out 
of 314) that comes up when I use IntelliShare.  These 314 were found 
by the program to have differences between my file and my wife's 
file.  You can see that the left side of the screen shows duplicate 
spouses (my file) and the right side shows the correct single spouse 
(my wife's file).  The reason this person requires manual merging is 
because I made some corrections to the Birth and Residence location 
fields--the differences between the two files has nothing to do with 
duplicate spouses.


Since I did my cleanup from the gedcom transfer in MY file, it has 
the most correct information regarding place and event names.  So I 
want to be sure to keep those when I merge.  However, I don't want 
to keep the duplicate spouses that are showing on the left (my file) 
side of the screen.


What do I need to do to throw out the duplicate spouses created by 
the import of my wife's Legacy file, but at the same time keep my 
file maintenance changes?

And why isn't this done automatically?
I'm still not sure if there is something I am doing wrong or if this 
is a problem with the IntelliShare feature.


Thank you!
Dennis

RE: [LegacyUG] Finding parents of spouses


Hi Alice,

Unless you did a search for Relationship equal to Unrelated, I think 
your 383 are likely people unattached to your major tree - so if you 
can't see any of them, that's why.


There isn't a way of automatically tagging the parents of those who 
marry in, however there is a way to include the parents of tagged 
people in an exported file (Legacy or Gedcom) if your concern is to 
export a file with them added. See the export dialogues.

Thanks Ron.  I don't see how that will get me what I want.  There are 1543
individuals in my Legacy file.  1160 of those individuals are related,
including spouses, leaving 383 non-related. The parents I am looking for
would be in that group of 383 non-related individuals.  I think I will
assign another tag number to the non-related group and go down the name
list to try to find the matching parents.  Can't think of anything else to
do but eyeball it.  -- Alice

RE: [LegacyUG] photos question


Hi Leo,
That actually won't work unless in your Word Processor you do some extra steps.

Yes if you tick the embed pictures in Legacy they will show in your 
Word processor when you open the rtf report - but if you move the 
original pictures they won't. They are really only linked to the 
file to use Word terminology and in Microsoft Word you need to go to 
Edit Links and choose to save the picture in the document and break 
the link. You can do them all at once if you highlight the list.


Avoid disappointment

Hi Marilyn, if you are just trying to do up a Descendant report or 
Ancestor report and want to include the pictures in the report so 
they will show up in your daughter in law's computer then all you 
have to do is: go to reports and pick out the report you want to 
send or give her - go to the report options - go to Pictures tab - 
where it says - embed the pictures in the file, click the box. Now 
under the picture of the printer you will see the following 5 
options - Screen/Printer, Text file, HTML file, Rich Text file, PDF 
file, click the Rich Text file, click create, name the file then 
burn the file to a disk or put it on a USB drive, it will probably 
be too large to e-mail. Leo
