Re: [LegacyUG] Child status menu is blank

[Richard Van Wasshnova]

Hi Cathy,

Your suggestion sounded like it might work. I've already moved on with my 
Legacy.fdb export/import file but I went back to the old, (yesterday), 
corrupt file and tried importing CS defaults and also from repaired file and 
neither worked.

  (See more reply interspersed below)

From: Cathy [EMAIL PROTECTED]




Hi Richard,

You could try resetting the Child Status List by importing the Defaults
When in the Master Child status list
Options button
Import
tick Child Status and then the Import Defaults button.
I would think that would have the same effect as exporting to a new family 
file - which isn't something to do lightly as you lose created and modifed 
date data, imported tags are attached to everyone rather than those who 
you really have imported etc.


Please tell me how to see imported tags. I added  5 Individuals since last 
import, (last one is FRANKLIN STEIN  ;-) ). I can see created date and 
modified date, mostly yesterday just a few today.


I had to reset ancestor colors, set direct line and set relationships and 
lost TO-DO list. The majority would alredy show as imported anyway even 
though I entered myself in another program.


If you are exporting your whole file, you don't have to create a new 
family file first. You just choose in the File - Export to Legacy file to 
export all records.



That is how I did it.

Check/Repair includes compress Family File as the final step so your 
Family File is often smaller after doing a Check/Repair.


Cathy


Thanks for the suggestions.

RE: [LegacyUG] County without city

[Paul A.]

Mary, 

Places should be recorded by smallest jurisdiction to largest, starting
with the town. U.S. citizens should list the town, then the county, then the
state, then the nation, like so: Bethesda, Montgomery, Maryland, U.S.A..
If you know the hospital where someone was born, do not record it here.  Any
jurisdiction smaller than the town should be recorded in a separate notes
page or field, or as a footnote in a family group record's Sources field.
Copied from http://www.ancestrylessons.com/rookie/recordin.htm 

And these next excerpts from BYU for temple submissions:

Examples include: Chicago, Cook, Illinois, USA, St. Dunstan, Canterbury,
Kent, England,
Victoria, Peel, Ontario, Canada
e. If for some reason, you do not know the county (or any of the other
place levels) or the locality does not have one, you would leave it out but
add the comma and space: Hendersonville, , North Carolina or Vancouver, ,
British Columbia, Canada2,5.
f. You should not include a place level description in the name unless it is
part of the actual name. For example, Salt Lake City is correct, but
Seattle City and Utah County is not.
i. Use the name at the time of the event5. For example, Miami has been in
the following counties, Miami and Miami-Dade. Even though the latter is what
is used at this time, you would use the former if that is what is was called
at the time of the event. Another example is what the USA was called in the
1600s. To be sure, you may have to research boundary changes. If the
placename has changed since then, you can add an explanation to the source5.
j. Some individuals put hospital, cemetery, or other names in the place.
However, it is
recommended to put these names in sources, notes, custom events, or
attributes instead5.
k. Sometimes, especially when dealing with rural areas, you may find a
landmark, farm name, or
other description instead of or in addition to a town or city name.
Especially when the location is not in a town or city, it is okay to include
more information such as Crawfish Creek (near
Chattanooga), Marion, Tennessee, USA5. Otherwise, the extra information
should be put in the
source.

Does that answer your question?

Hi Valerie,

I only enter the age at death in the Source Detail if my source gave 
the age at death.

If that's the only information I have for birth, I calculate a birth 
date and use the death source as the source for birth.
I indicate that it is a calculated date by using the prefix Cal for 
calculated. Others will use Abt or Est. I use Abt for vaguer source 
information and Est when it is a guess based on other information.

Legacy will calculate the age at death and you can opt to include 
that in Reports - perhaps only some of them. Check the Report 
options. This Legacy calculated age is also shown on the Individual 
Information Screen within Legacy at the end of the Death line. You can
choose to add an Age at Death column on the Index View.

[LegacyUG] Imported tags (was Child status menu is blank)

[Cathy]

Hi Richard,

You can't see the imported tag (I guess you could in Access) but you 
can Search for those who are tagged this way - In the Detailed Search 
look for Imported in the Where to look list.

You can also delete it. Tools Menu - Clear Imported Tags

It's useful if you import a gedcom and want to keep track of that 
group - but only useful if you've cleared the tag before the import 
so only those in the last import have it.


Those who are manually added of course don't have it as they haven't 
been imported.

You can get a list of those added recently by searching on the added date.

Did you lose all To Dos or only General To Dos as you didn't check 
that box on the export screen?

As far as I know it is not possible to display the MRIN against the names as

[LegacyUG] Legacy crashes if I don't have the internet

This is a new error since I downloaded the latest Legacy, and it is
troublesome. I am trying to use my laptop at the library, and I have
no internet service. When I run Legacy, I get a pop up message that
says Web page unavailable while offline To view the page, click
Connect. There are two buttons, Connect and Stay Offline, but I just
get an hourglass, and cannot select either button. Legacy won't load,
and I have to use task manager to close it.

Is this something with the latest version, or is it something to do

I take it you didn't send this from your laptop!

I think you need to go to the Legacy Home Tab, then Options at the top right 
select Options again and check connect only when a link is clicked. If this 
is the problem it is not connected with the latest version - it's always 
been there!


Have a good day.

RE: [LegacyUG] County without city

[Paul A.]

I replied offline as I do not think this tone of the messages should be on
here.  However, the older genealogists should be teaching the newer ones the
correct way to do things so that they become historians and genealogists
rather than name collectors with no regard for standards.

The wonderful thing about Legacy is that it defaults to the correct
standards many times but is also diverse enough to allow people to make
changes.  I don't think those changes were meant  to have people disregard
the standards and the quality of past historians' works by their adhering to
such accepted standards.

Thank you.

Re: [LegacyUG] Legacy crashes if I don't have the internet

[Susan Daily]

Thanks to everyone for their replies. I wish I had thought of
Richard's idea to move my USR settings away, as there was no
possibility of getting the internet. (I even brought the laptop to the
window to see if I could get free wireless somewhere, but they were
all secured signals.) Ron, I was using a hardwired PC to email (clever
you!) but I've never been able to get that internet to work on my
laptop, sad to say.

I've just made the change here at home. I'm guessing it may have
something more to do with Internet Explorer, since I've been sometimes
getting that message through IE this whole week, too, when I come back
from not having the internet. But that part would be off topic, so if
anyone has ideas, please email me off list.

Thanks again,
Susan

[LegacyUG] Finding first names associated with a single surname in the index

[Gail Nestor]

I've been wondering about this for a while

I have almost 1,000 individuals with a single surname in my database
and I would like to be able to find one at the end of the list without
having to scroll through all the first names associated with that
surname.  I know that I could sort by first name instead, but
sometimes I need to review several first names within a surname to
find the right one.

Is there a way to selectively jump to a certain first name associated
with a single surname?

Thanks for your advice on this!

Re: [LegacyUG] Finding first names associated with a single surname in the index

[Susan Daily]

I don't think so Gail, but you could do this for names in the second
part of the alphabet - my first name comes near the end of the
Cullivans, so I enter CULM instead of CULL to jump to the end of the
list, and scroll up.

Not ideal, but just another trick.

Re: [LegacyUG] Alphabetizing Names

Subject: [LegacyUG] Alphabetizing Names



Hello,

I have a number of European individuals in my database that have surnames 
that contain an article or suffix is usually written in lower case.


Some examples are:

de Argies
de Flandre
de Maure
de Moleyns
de Reynier
la Pierre
lo Judas
van Vorhees
von Arnstein
von Bickenbach
von Friesen

I would like these names to alphabetize by the first letter of the main 
part of the name rather than the first letter. A DOS genealogy program I 
had years ago called _Family Roots_ alphabetized by first Capital letter 
rather than first letter so the list looked like this:


de Argies
von Arnstein
von Bickenbach
von Friesen
lo Judas
de Maure
de Moleyns
la Pierre
de Reynier
van Vorhees

Since I imported much of my data from that program I have been reworking 
the names. I put the article in the first name field so now I have people 
with first names like 'Frederick van' and 'Gloria lo'.


I've seen many lists of surnames on the Web and in books alphabetized this 
way so I don't think it's very unusual but I've also seen lists, 
particularly German databases made with Legacy that have an overabundance 
of names starting with 'V'. See for example: 
http://ahnen.vorfahrensuche.com/


Is there any way to alphabetize this way? Or are there any plans to add it 
to the program, perhaps as an option.


Thanks in advance for any insights.

Bill Stone

[LegacyUG] Soliciting Opinions

[Karl Plenge]

I don't mean this as a slam to the developers at all, because my background is 
in software development and I understand the difficulties they run up against, 
but regarding nearly all software (esp Windows!), I feel that I have learned the 
hard way not to fix what ain't broke, and I generally don't download updates to 
software that I have unless there is a specific problem that I need fixed.


With reading all the problems people have had when they download new revisions 
of Legacy, I just wondered if that might not be a prudent approach to take 
toward this as well, but I am new to this board and realize there may be reasons 
not to follow this logic that I am not aware of.


Does anyone have comments on the +'s or -'s of taking this approach to Legacy?

[LegacyUG] Legacy stops responding when trying to create a Problem Report

[Christine Pearce]

I am a new user (Version 6.0.0.155) and have never been unable to create a
Problem Report. Every time I try, Legacy stops responding and the programme
shuts down. Sometimes the status bar stops at points other than 100%
complete and stops responding, and other times the status bar gets to 100%
complete but stops responding when I press Preview.

I have tried File Maintenance (no problems found), reinstalling Legacy,
cleaned the registry, reinstalled Windows XP and Legacy, and performed a
virus check (none found) - all actions were to no avail.

I am running Windows XP Version 2002 Service Pack 2. Legacy is installed on
my laptop C drive, and my files are on a network which I access via the
Desktop. Got gobs of disk space and memory on both machines. This is the
only programme that's giving me a headache.

Can someone urgently respond with suggestions?

Cheers,
Christine

I'm in your camp.  I think Legacy is wonderful and after almost two years
I'm still learning new ways to do nifty things but there are no issues
that get in my way.  Because of the trouble calls I see after each update,
I have yet to download any updates.  Nevertheless I'm looking forward to
Legacy 7 and will probably upgrade at that point.

I, too, usually wait a few weeks before downloading the newest
whatever, and Legacy is not much of an exception. With Legacy, I wait
a few days, and if there aren't a million oh no messages, I go ahead
and update. There have never been problems for me before following
this approach.

I still haven't downloaded the latest IE because of the HP problems. I
held off downloading the latest acrobat until the Legacy conflicts
were resolved. Just read all messages and you'll figure out when you
need to wait on something.

RE: [LegacyUG] Soliciting Opinions

[ronald ferguson]

Karl,

Having also been in software development, albeit some years ago, I too am a 
little cautious about downloading updates and usually wait a week or two to 
see other users comments. I do make exceptions though eg. when I find on 
reading the changes that there is something I have an immediate use for, and 
when I knowingly download a beta version because it contains facilities 
which I regularly use. (hint to Legacy - I would be delighted to help in 
testing a revision of the html web pages!)


Having said that I have not really found any serious problems with the 
Legacy Updates, certainly nothing that has ruined my work.

Re: [LegacyUG] Soliciting Opinions

[Jackie King]

Susan -

I am with you although I have found far fewer problems with Legacy 
upgrades than upgrades to most of the other software programs I use.


I also have not and will not download IE 7 and there is a simple reason. 
Some websites I use quite frequently are done with activex which IE 7 
many times will not support or have older certificates from programs 
that are no longer supported. Since the certificates are not being 
renewed IE 7 will not run those portions of those websites and does not 
offer you the option of okaying the certificate.


Odd how activex was at one time the be-all and end-all for Microsoft and 
now they are shooting the site developers they urged to use it right in 
the foot.

Re: [LegacyUG] Creating events

[Gail Nestor]

The city of the newspaper publication is also what I put in my event
places too.  However, one caveat is that if you have a web site which
produces geocoded maps, it might appear like the event itself occured
in that place.

For example see the map down at the bottom of this page:
http://www.roots2buds.net/getperson.php?personID=I289tree=nestor.

This ancestor did not live in Atlanta, GA.  He lived many miles away
in Decatur County, GA.  However, his news made it to a regional paper.
 It could be misleading if someone didn't read carefully and thought
that he migrated.

I still don't think I'll change the event location, but it's something
to consider...

Susan,

I take it you didn't send this from your laptop!

I think you need to go to the Legacy Home Tab, then Options at the top right

select Options again and check connect only when a link is clicked. If this 
is the problem it is not connected with the latest version - it's always 
been there!

Have a good day.

Subject: [LegacyUG] Legacy crashes if I don't have the internet
Date: Thu, 16 Aug 2007 09:34:55 -0500

This is a new error since I downloaded the latest Legacy, and it is
troublesome. I am trying to use my laptop at the library, and I have
no internet service. When I run Legacy, I get a pop up message that
says Web page unavailable while offline To view the page, click
Connect. There are two buttons, Connect and Stay Offline, but I just
get an hourglass, and cannot select either button. Legacy won't load,
and I have to use task manager to close it.

Is this something with the latest version, or is it something to do
with my internet explorer options? Please help - I'm here for four
hours, with nothing else to do except enter data in my Legacy file!!

Thank you,
Susan Daily

Re: [LegacyUG] Creating events

[Lisa Young]

That is actually one of the reasons I *do* use the place of newspaper 
publication, even if it is maybe far way. That way the person will show 
up when I do a Show List for the place of the obit publication. If the 
obit got published there, there may be other ties or other news I should 
look for in a location that might otherwise not be attached to the 
individual. The same applies to the people mentioned in the obit.

Re: [LegacyUG] Sourcing Question...

[Gail Nestor]

I'd like to add a comment here too.  I also bought my copy of Mills'
_Evidence Explained_ and started to consider updating all my sources
in Legacy.  However, I quickly decided it's best to wait and see how
Legacy 7's sourcing templates pan out.  I have high hopes!

One problem is that Mills' formulas often embed what I would consider
citation detail data in a citation within elements of master
source data.

For example, she recommends adding an accessed date to web site data
so the reader will know how long ago the site was viewed.  This makes
good sense.  However, she has data on either side of it that I would
want to include in my master source.  Legacy 6 does not allow for
mixing these components for the final output.

Another example which is tricky to implement is sourcing for e-mail
correspondence.  She suggests using the following components in a
first reference note (in this order, and as available): writer,
writer's location, writer's contact information, recipient, item type,
record date, subject line, file, research series, collection,
researcher and contact information.

Currently, I have created a master source called Personal
Correspondence and all of the above information is currently listed
in the citation detail for all e-mails I have received over the years.
 I tried to get Legacy 6 to suppress the words Personal
Correspondence in the source output so that just the above
information would print, but I couldn't get it to work the way I
wanted.

First I left the words Personal Correspondence in the Source List
Name field, but I blanked out the same words in the Title field of the
Master Source.  When I viewed the Show Source using Print Options
window, the words Personal Correspondence still showed up
(presumably pulling from the Source List Name field since the Title
field was not blank).

Then I typed the word test in the Title field and the test then
appeared in the Show Source using Print Options window in lieu of
Personal Correspondence from the Source List Name.

Therefore, it seems that the output for printing defaults to the
Source List Name if the Title field is blank.  I finally gave up and
decided that revamping my sources needed to wait in hopes that Legacy
7's templates will resolve some of these issues.

I realize that Mills wrote her book more with a person publishing on
paper in mind and not as much for the person using a database.
Frankly, I'm sure it's hard to accommodate the needs of both at the
same time!  However, I am trying my best to make it work for both
worlds.

I welcome any thoughts or suggestions on the above example.  In the
mean time, I am happy to wait a couple of months to see what sourcing
goodies Legacy 7 has in store!

 Now *that's* a good reason.  When reading films ordered from the Canadian

 nothing in Mills about recording the film copy number in the source

I think the important things is the elements you include, and in a

Well, I sort of agree with you, but I'm the type who really like to
color in the lines!  Also, I subscribe to the APG list and have
already posed a few questions to Ms. Mills about a couple of the
cemetery citation models.  She really does respond quickly and with
much detail!

Everyone likes to say that it's more of an art, but when it gets down
to it, many people on that list will step in and (kindly) say that
there's a better or more correct way than the one I'm currently using.

There are times when I know I'm going to use poetic license on my
sources, but I do want to try to be as true Mills' templates as I know

their source myself.

Re: [LegacyUG] Legacy stops responding when trying to create a Problem Report

The size of your file and your hard drive may be part

1 choice first. You don't need to print it. Just get
the scope of it. When I first ran the program for my

never printed the full thing, but did 10-20 pages at a
time, fixed, then printed another 20.

[LegacyUG] Source from the beginning (was Creating events)

[Cathy]

Hi Dwight and others,

Sourcing in Legacy is so much easier if you source as you add your data.
Load the source you are using into the Source Clipboard (even if that 
source is your own knowledge or recollection) and then you can source 
with a simple click.
If you are held up on sourcing because you can't sort out all the 
details of a Master Source, enter it any way. You can come back and 
edit it later with the Publication details and the precise title or author.


Take time out and learn the basics of sourcing.

 of Legacy, I just wondered if that might not be a prudent approach to take
 toward this as well, but I am new to this board and realize there may be 
 reasons
 not to follow this logic that I am not aware of.

 Does anyone have comments on the +'s or -'s of taking this approach to Legacy?

Hi Valerie,

I only enter the age at death in the Source Detail if my source gave 
the age at death.

If that's the only information I have for birth, I calculate a birth 
date and use the death source as the source for birth.
I indicate that it is a calculated date by using the prefix Cal for 
calculated. Others will use Abt or Est. I use Abt for vaguer source 
information and Est when it is a guess based on other information.

Legacy will calculate the age at death and you can opt to include 
that in Reports - perhaps only some of them. Check the Report 
options. This Legacy calculated age is also shown on the Individual 
Information Screen within Legacy at the end of the Death line. You can
choose to add an Age at Death column on the Index View.

Me, too, but God bless the more computer literate  daring folks who try 
out the new stuff.  Feedback is needed to make sure it works for 
everyone, no matter what their computers are like.  I find that Legacy 
is most gracious with the user responses and works hard to resolve issues.

I have moved to Legacy and JUST LOVE IT - I am to totally addicted.

They have a wonderful mailing list with answers to any questions
sometimes in half and hour. A very supportive group of people.

The program can be downloaded from their website and used for free BUT
you will probably want to upgrade to the deluxe version.

 Hi Everyone,



 I'm hoping that someone could give me advice in regards to upgrading 
 to
 FTM
 2008.  I have been using the 2005 version and was wondering if it's
worth
 the money updating to 2008.  Could someone tell what extra features
that 
 the
 2007 version had?  It seems a lot of money to keep upgrading each
year?



 Also I've had a look on the FTM website at the FAQ's and I still can't
 work
 out how to add my pictures and BDM's when compiling a book on a
particular
 person.  Could someone let me know offline as my computer skills
aren't 
 the
 best.



 Many thanks in advance

The Search and Replace window shows the name of the individual having

It should really also show the RIN to distinguish between like-named

With Legacy closed, go to the Legacy folder on your hard drive.  Delete the

folder and delete the PPL file that has the same name as your Family File.
You should be able to create the report with no problem.

Report
Importance: High

I am a new user (Version 6.0.0.155) and have never been unable to create a
Problem Report. Every time I try, Legacy stops responding and the programme
shuts down. Sometimes the status bar stops at points other than 100%
complete and stops responding, and other times the status bar gets to 100%
complete but stops responding when I press Preview.

I have tried File Maintenance (no problems found), reinstalling Legacy,
cleaned the registry, reinstalled Windows XP and Legacy, and performed a
virus check (none found) - all actions were to no avail.

I am running Windows XP Version 2002 Service Pack 2. Legacy is installed on
my laptop C drive, and my files are on a network which I access via the
Desktop. Got gobs of disk space and memory on both machines. This is the
only programme that's giving me a headache.

Can someone urgently respond with suggestions?

Hi Richard,

You can't see the imported tag (I guess you could in Access) but you
can Search for those who are tagged this way - In the Detailed Search
look for Imported in the Where to look list.
You can also delete it. Tools Menu - Clear Imported Tags

It's useful if you import a gedcom and want to keep track of that
group - but only useful if you've cleared the tag before the import
so only those in the last import have it.

Those who are manually added of course don't have it as they haven't
been imported.
You can get a list of those added recently by searching on the added date.

Did you lose all To Dos or only General To Dos as you didn't check
that box on the export screen?

That is probably what I should be doing.  I'm trying to keep the
notebooks as small as possible.  I have large notebooks, but I've
already gotten three of them full.  I followed the advice in the video
and so I have lots of other info included.  I'm going to set up one just
for my misc. information.  I am determined to get all of those stacks of
folders off my den floor.  My wife has threatened to throw them out, and
occasionally, my dog, Gabby starts chewing on the folder corners.
Sometimes I feel like like the old saying my grandfather used to use
when he had about all he could take.  He said he was, craving a
bullet.  Its not that bad.  Actually I am making marked progress. 
 
Thanks for the reply,

Re: [LegacyUG] Soliciting Opinions

[Cathy]

Hi Karl,

Legacy updates include bug fixes and new features - sometimes big new 
features that you would only expect with a new version rather than a 
free update. If you don't update periodically you miss out on both of these.


It can be a good idea to wait for a few days before updating. 
Sometimes a bug creeps into the update and there is a flurry of 
updates over a couple of days to sort it out. Sometimes there is a 
new bug that affects an area of the program that is important to you 
but isn't critical which isn't fixed for awhile. For this, it can 
help to download and keep the full installation of a version you're 
happy with and then, if you find the new update has a problem that 
affects you, you can always go back to that older version.

Well you can install two different versions provided you've installed 
to different folders - same as all programs - many do this with a new version.
But I meant just keep the full old installation file - which, if you 
updated from within Legacy Deluxe, you need to download from the website.
