Got them too - they all say they were sent at pretty much the same time
(early morning here) - so they might not have realized it was
happening   

I'm sure it was just a "glitch" - but I feel for those with limited
bandwidth!

RE: [LegacyUG] Combining data with sources

2008-05-07 Thread Cathy


and would you then split the date into year, month and day?
and location into country, state/county, town ... ?
I don't think you've solved the problem of needing to record what was 
actually found in the source by splitting the event into date and 
place for sourcing.
Also if your source includes both date and place, you need to add it 
twice so you have increased the number of source citations.


Some other things to think about.

Cathy,

Thanks for the response. I'm glad to see that others are doing effectively
the same as me. It would be great though if we could source each element of
the data i.e date & place separately.

I have submitted a suggestion on this possibility

Regards

Keith

[LegacyUG] PROF DR. Alvaro Hern Re asking for recipts per lLeagacy messages

2008-05-07 Thread Shirl

Prof.Dr.Alvaro Hern:
Would be so kind sir as to refrain from asking for receipts every time you send 
a message to the legacy list. Its most annoying.
And it means every  perosn   who gets leagacy mail would be having the  same 
windpow pop up.

Thuis is not necessary for you to do sir when   sending m,essages to a group; 
but much rather meany for personal messages.

Thanks  so very much  for being  considerate of others in the future. Shirl

RE: [LegacyUG] Living flag changes

2008-05-07 Thread Cathy

It means that with Advanced Set Living, if someone is marked dead due 
to age, all their ancestors will be marked dead as well.
So if you have someone in your database born 1900 and you choose to 
mark as dead anyone born more than 105 years ago (default is 120 
years but I usually drop this down a bit), they will be marked as 
dead AND all their ancestors will also be marked dead even if they 
have no dates at all.

Ron,

Thanks for this.

Of course I was referring to the living flag being set to NO and not YES. In
addition I wasn't quite clear in my initial statement, in that I meant if no
dates were entered against a person they would not be set as "not living".

What I hadn't realised (and I thank you for), is that " If there are any
ancestors of a person set to deceased because of age they also will be
set to "Not Living".

Thanks for the assistance.

Regards

Keith

Gary, the message in question said you were subscribed, not

Wrong.

They are both logical and reasonable, something many listers were not. Common sense, patience and
simple courtesy would have gone a long way to avoiding the larger congestion caused by the me
too'ers and what's going on with "MY" list. Remember, this list is a "FREE" resource provided by
the good people at Millenia and NO ONE has the right to complain if there is a small problem that
will inevitably be taken care of. And for all of you listers who did not receive, did not read, or
just deleted Jim's messages, the problem was not caused by the list server. It was a problem with a
subscriber. The mail delivery delays have more to do with the congestion on the Internet Backbones
that with the Millenia servers. In other words they did an excellent job of handling a problem that
did not originate with them and over which they had little control. Kudos to them and can we PLEASE
now drop the subject and get back to genealogy and away from kvetching?
