Re: [LegacyUG] Eastern European Font in Legacy 6 - ANSWER
Through a source on another Forum, I have learned the following from Ken McGinnis: The RichText box control we use for notes supports Unicode. The regular text box, label control, frame control and a few others do not support Unicode at this time. My source says This explains why the data is what it is in Legacy. I know that upgrading Legacy to Unicode is high on the wish list for the developers, but it is not going to happen in L7 as it involves a massive re-write of the product. Guess I'm stuck for now. In the interests of genealogical accuracy, I sure hope Legacy fixes this problem someday soon. Gene === Elsie: Thanks for the suggestion. I looked at their character table, and it does not include the one I need. However, the problem seems to be with Legacy. I have e-mailed them and will let you know what they say.

I print out my to-dos by printing with a Sort Order. I choose to print by Locality, then task type, then Task Name. This way when I go to a certain town, I have all the to-do items listed together. (Of course, you have to have been adding Locations when you originally wrote your To-do item!) Now, if you have been doing a Category Type that equals your Source type, you could sort by Category. Just check the Sort Order for all the other possible options. If you want to do reports by Surname, you will want to either Tag those people together, or do a focus group, then print the report just for those individuals - select Record Selection - Tasks tied to Individuals (and select the correct group). You may want to do all your to-do items in a PDF-viewable report first, to make sure everything has been given a category, location, or what-not. You can fix them in your family file as you go through the report, and then when all is fixed, generate the report(s) you need. I hope these ideas help.

Re: [LegacyUG] Printing ToDos as a Log or List AND Spam Deluge
Hi Denise, As Ron says, email addresses do get harvested from mailing lists. But Legacy does a good job of removing them before they get archived on the web. My GMAIL program saves everyone's email address in a contact list when I receive an email. Now I am diligent about not opening up virus-suspect emails, however, there are other new users who aren't so knowledgeable, so it is possible that your email address gets picked up when a hacker breaks into the PCs of these other users who don't have firewalls, anti-spyware, or anti-virus software installed. So since you will never be able to beat them, all you can do is create a new email address for public (genealogy) use. That's why I love my GMAIL account, and am grateful to the LUG user who sent me the info way back when... And another comment for the list - trying to hide an email address by using the words at and dot don't work, as email harvesters have algorithms to pick up those variations.

I tried to tag them from the list but could not do so. This will mean I must open every individual and tag them in Family view after doing the check, so as to know whom I have checked against the records Any suggestions folks?

Re: [LegacyUG]email addresses on websites
Substituting at for @ only works on the dumb spammers. All the others have taught their bots to read. Fortunately they haven't taught them to read graphics yet, so entering your e-mail address as a graphic image works well. For now. Eventually they'll figure those out as well, probably with code that converts imaged text into actual text, much as Optical Character Reader software does for us all. Then we'll have to encode our e-mail addresses on websites, leaving only a hotspot for readers to click on.

I show the names of people who e-mail me as the source and put their e-mail addresses in publication facts. I have tested putting the e-mail address in double brackets, and it appears to me that the double brackets remove the address from Gedcoms and reports.

Another for almost 8. The third I have had for a bit more than a year and the only reason I have it instead of another is because of people who have indiscriminately shared email addresses on gedcoms and webpages.
