Me, too.  I have the LUG set for Plain text only even though I disagree with
the policy.  So, if my email had an ad in it, it was because I was replying
to some previous message.  It wouldn't have originated with me.

Thanks for the help, but everything the article recommended, I already had
set. So, I wouldn't know why the attachment was still sent unless I replied
to an HTML message or something and didn't think to make sure it went Plain
text.  But, either way, I have LUG set for Plain Text only and have for
quite sometime.

Re: [LegacyUG] Sources in Family Tree

[Bob Brehm]

To set default Surety level, click Options from Main Menu, then
choose Choose Customize, then Sources tab, then under Source Surety,
the default is probably set to 3. You can change it anything from 4
(convincing evidence) to 0 (Have not decided yet). 3 is Almost certain
conclusion. A safer for unverified sources choice might be 2 (Probable
conclusion).

When entering source data detail, you will see Surety Level directly
below the data box. It will already be set to the default value for
you, which you can change. Notice the box to the right also.

I hope this helps.

Re: [LegacyUG] submission to LDS Pedigree Resource File

[DimJim]

Thanks Ron,
I came to the same conclusion.  I've spent the better part of a day reading 
and re-reading the help files, the Tips and Troubleshooting pages in the 
Legacy web pages and searching the LUG archives until I'm pretty well blind 
and sick of the whole thing.  Didn't find anything of any value to solve my 
problem.
I found several items in the archives where items were being exported in 
GEDCOM files that should not have been included, but those little problems 
were fixed.
Guess I'll download a copy of the Res Privata program suggested by Gary 
Templeman and see if it'll solve my problem.  More "outsourcing"!

Anyhow, thanks for the confirmation.

Jim,

Sorry it has taken me a couple of days to get round to it but I have now 
checked your work having tested pretty well all the Gedcom formats with 
sources attached and can confirm that in all the cases I tested a source 
was added to the name "Living" on all the Gedcoms I tested.


In some cases this could be unfortunate as they had the names of living 
individuals as the source.

Ron - you should be in bed by now but just to let you know.
I have exported my data base to GEDCOM using 5.5 only standard and also a 
GEDCOM prepared "for Legacy", and those folks who are renamed to "Living" 
and details are suppressed, still have sources attached.
Seems to me that a few years back, there was a problem with sources being 
included on GEDCOM exports where the individuals were "private" or had 
details suppressed.
I can't say about my web pages because I withheld sources from being 
published on my web.

Hi Ron,
I didn't do anything tricky - I just exported my entire data base to a 
GEDCOM file specifying to produce file for  Pedigree Resource File with 
ANSI Character set.  I check the box to "Suppress details for living 
People and also the box to "Change name to "Living".  No other options 
were selected on the GEDCOM Export page.
Then after producing the GEDCOM, I imported it back into LEGACY for 
viewing, where I noticed that sources were still attached to those people 
with suppressed details and named "Living".

I may give it a try using GEDCOM 5.5 only standard.

Jim,

There seems to be something very wrong there aince marking as "Living" 
and supressing the details should ensure that no sources are attached - 
that is how I do my web pages with no problems. I cannot suggest what as 
you have given no details.

Well, here I am talking to myself - so sad.
I just created a new family file to place on Pedigree Resource File, 
suppressing details and changing the name of those not deceased to 
Living - 7,032 of them are now named Living.  That should drive someone 
up a tree!
Not acceptable and the worse part is... you guessed it - 
about 75% of the Livings had sources attached to them.  Some of the 
sources Very revealing as to who AKA Living really is.

Enough to make a grown man cry :(

Re: [LegacyUG] Sources in Family Tree

[Heather Stovold]

FamilySearch has some good solid info - but the ANCESTRAL FILE withing
Family Search (and also the Pedigree Resource File in it) is just submitted
trees from other researchers.  The quality will vary greatly depending on
who did the research, and everything needs to be taken with a very big grain
of salt on those 2 parts of it.   I would use it as a starting place.

The IGI part of it is either stuff submitted by people, or basically an
index of some original source records.  You can find out which it was for
any particular person by looking at the information of their "source".   If
it was submitted by a person, than once again, accuracy will vary widely.
If it was from a source record, than it is probably pretty good - keeping in
mind that it would be like a transcribed index, so there will still be
errors.  If you find one from a source record, then shout for joy, as you
can get all the information about the source, and it is almost guaranteed to
be microfilmed, so available to order at a Family History Library for a
nominal fee - which I would do just to double check.

There are also indexes to a Canadian census, a US census, and a UK census.

btw - the Legacy Deluxe (not sure if in standard) has a fantastic search for
the IGI which I find wonderful for looking for people in it!

  I don't really understand how to use Legacy's Research Guidance AND enter 
much of the info into Legacy at the same time.

  E.g., I was looking up Jane Doe who m George Smith.  I could enter much of 
the Jane Doe info OK via clicking on Edit.  But I couldn't get to the marriage 
window & had to add the marriage info as a regular event.  Of course I may have 
already had the same info already in the marriage event field but I could see 
no way of getting to it.

  Then when I clicked on George Smith in the curse of looking up Jane Doe in 
the Research Guidance I found some new info about his mother and I couldn't 
find how to get from Research Guidance directly to her screen.

  How do I navigate smoothly from info obtained thru Research Guidance so that 
I can enter the data quickly into data file?

  Thanks for your help!

It, and Pauls, included an adverisement, which perfectly illustrates the 
dangers of using html in posts, Though to be fair to Paul that was probably 
the original one.

I  can rest easy knowing it is not a virus (my AV system is updated

The sort answer is that winmail.dat contains formatting information. 
My guess is that you aren't using Outlook and therefore the formatting

The file winmail.dat often appears when sending e-mail between Microsoft
Outlook and other e-mail readers. See this link on answer.com for more
details on what it is and how to fix it.

hm, there were NO attachments when mine came in.
And my thoughts  on HTML . . . . . . I use html myself on 
everything but this list. I like and use the dark colors and also 
use LARGE fonts so everyone can read it. But then most of the 
people I write to need the large fonts.

But all that said -- if the list manager says "plain text" then I 
will send in plain text. I also have my Outlook Express e-mail 
address to show in "largest" font (and last week someone told me 
how to change it if it came in in small text anyway). Of course 
all the web based e-mails can be enlarged easily.

Re: [LegacyUG] submission to LDS Pedigree Resource File

[ronald ferguson]

Jim,

Sorry it has taken me a couple of days to get round to it but I have now 
checked your work having tested pretty well all the Gedcom formats with 
sources attached and can confirm that in all the cases I tested a source was 
added to the name "Living" on all the Gedcoms I tested.


In some cases this could be unfortunate as they had the names of living 
individuals as the source.

Ron - you should be in bed by now but just to let you know.
I have exported my data base to GEDCOM using 5.5 only standard and also a 
GEDCOM prepared "for Legacy", and those folks who are renamed to "Living" 
and details are suppressed, still have sources attached.
Seems to me that a few years back, there was a problem with sources being 
included on GEDCOM exports where the individuals were "private" or had 
details suppressed.
I can't say about my web pages because I withheld sources from being 
published on my web.

Hi Ron,
I didn't do anything tricky - I just exported my entire data base to a 
GEDCOM file specifying to produce file for  Pedigree Resource File with 
ANSI Character set.  I check the box to "Suppress details for living 
People and also the box to "Change name to "Living".  No other options 
were selected on the GEDCOM Export page.
Then after producing the GEDCOM, I imported it back into LEGACY for 
viewing, where I noticed that sources were still attached to those people 
with suppressed details and named "Living".

I may give it a try using GEDCOM 5.5 only standard.

Jim,

There seems to be something very wrong there aince marking as "Living" 
and supressing the details should ensure that no sources are attached - 
that is how I do my web pages with no problems. I cannot suggest what as 
you have given no details.

Well, here I am talking to myself - so sad.
I just created a new family file to place on Pedigree Resource File, 
suppressing details and changing the name of those not deceased to 
Living - 7,032 of them are now named Living.  That should drive someone 
up a tree!
Not acceptable and the worse part is... you guessed it - 
about 75% of the Livings had sources attached to them.  Some of the 
sources Very revealing as to who AKA Living really is.

Enough to make a grown man cry :(

Re: [LegacyUG] New Version of Legacy

[Syble Glasscock]

I bought Vs. 5 first then when vs. 6 came out, I bought it, but in my opinion, 
there was very little difference.  I actually imported one of my family files 
back into FTM recently just because of the charts, and reports,  I think Legacy 
could do a much better job on this.  I loved the Events feature in Legacy and 
the way Events prints on reports and the option of tagging a particular event 
if you want to exclude it.  There are several other areas that I would like to 
see options in, but I want to know what's in the new one before I buy it.

  I like Legacy also much better than FTM that I use only for trees. (From 
this list I see many other user do also). So far I use Legacy version 4 that is 
adequate for my requirements at this time. The reports, books etc. are 
wonderful. However, I want desperately to get the NEW LEGACY when it come out 
if it will include REAL BOX trees as let us say MAC's Reunion or even FTM. Now 
then, within Legacy, if I go to reports there is a Descendants chart complete 
with pictures, if I want them, and a lot of other facts that I can include. It 
looks like a waterfall chart.(Would be better in if I could color it)
  Now then, again, is it possible to turn this chart around and make a " Top 
Down Descendants Box Chart "? By no means am I a programmer, but if other 
genealogy programs, not nearly as great as Legacy, can include all manner of 
box carts, why not Legacy? ( I am not very fond of Charting Companion)
   
  Hopefully,

RE: It is possible to send in plain text in MSN formerly [LegacyUG] Forms Menu

[Sherry/Support]

Ann,

Those aren't our instructions - the link is to a Rootsweb site.

Before we switched servers some time ago, the LUG list deleted messages that
were in HTML. Any messages sent in HTML would have never made it to the
list.  Unfortunately, our new program that we switched to doesn't have this
capability.

Thanks for using Legacy.

Thinking you might find this of interest.

This is what the Legacy Help has about MSN & HTML messages in the link you 
sent me.

MSN Explorer Tech support states "that MSN Explorer and MSN.com send 
web-based HTML e-mail ONLY and cannot be configured to send plain text." If 
you use MSN as your e-mail service (i.e., [EMAIL PROTECTED]) you can go to 
Hotmail.com and send e-mail from there in plain text via the PASSPORT 
system.

It is possible to send plain text without using Hotmail, etc. I asked MSN 
support to help me here is what they walked me through. Help & 
Settings>Writing e-mail settings>Font. One sees drop down lists for font, 
size, etc.

Perhaps the Legacy folks would be interested in updating the instructions in

the above link that it is not necessary to use Hotmail.

I have been using Legacy since before February 1999 and never ever, ever, 
would I knowing send messages to LUG in HTML. I appreciate you and the LUG 
members who let me know I was doing so.

RE: [LegacyUG] ERROR: 339

[ronald ferguson]

Valerie,

Please see http://www.legacyfamilytree.com/helpDLL-OCXerrors.asp

However, basically I am afraid you need to uninstall and reinstall from the 
Legacy site and not by using the updates. This should not affect your data 
files but if it does worry you, then copy C:\Legacy\Data to My Documents 
before going through the procedure and you can then copy it back in the 
unlikely event of you hitting a problem.

Hello everyone.

I am back again with another problem.

When I tired to print a descendency chart I got ERROR 339: a file is
missing or invalid and then the picture of the printer just kept sending
pages non stop.

The only way I could get out was to turn off the computer.

The previous day I had tried to update my program but it got aborted
before it finished. I tried to update again and I was told there were no
more updates.

What do I do now please ?

Regards from Valerie in sunny Sydney.

Sorry, Ann,

I should have said that you can do this in replies, again by clicking tools. 
So you can individualise each reply.

Ann,

In msn.com clikc New>Tools in the drop down box youw will see "set rtf OFF" 
(or something like that) click it and click OK in the pop-up. This sets 
*all* you msn emails to plain text.
