[LegacyUG] V 7 Source Writer

2008-06-05 Thread Jay S. Van Zeeland
Has anyone else noticed that when creating a source for a GedCom from an
individual that any comments that are typed about the quality of the Gedcom
are repeated twice in the Footnote/Endnote citation?

Any work around? Or should I just send a bug report?

BTW this message was sent at 11:26 pm CDT

Re: [LegacyUG] best practice for information collaboration

2008-06-05 Thread MJMethod
Can we assume that you are both on Legacy?
If not, can you get a Gedcom from them and then use  that to create a 
Legacy database? 
 
Then 
- back up everything
- load your primary file
- select File, Import From, Legacy File, and load  the file you've been 
sent
- follow the prompts and instructions. You will be  given the opportunity 
to compare duplicates, merge, save separate, etc.

RE: [LegacyUG] new FamilySearch integration?

2008-06-05 Thread Kate Redford
Pat,

LDS nFS (new Family Search) is not available to every researcher at this
time.  It is still in beta testing and being released as Temple Districts go
on-line for the new software system.

It is my understanding that when all of the Temples are on line (probably,
end of 2008, then Legacy vs.7 will sync with nFS.

This is the year of learning patience with so many kinds of software
upgrading.  Not my strong virtue.  Hope this helps.

Re: [LegacyUG] New V. 7

2008-06-05 Thread Cathy

Have you entered your Deluxe Customer Number?

You won't get mapping until you do.

You can get to the maps through the icon on the toolbar - if it isn't 
there - customise the toolbar by right clicking on an empty spot and 
then following the directions.

This takes you to the map for the highlighted individual.

Or go to the Master Location List and check the Show Maps checkbox.

Remember you need to have IE7.

RE: [LegacyUG] Installing version 7

2008-06-05 Thread Sherry/Support
However, if you choose to uninstall Legacy v6, you must uninstall from the
shortcut in the Start Menu folder or from the shortcut in the v6 folder in
Windows Explorer.  If you use Control Panel, you risk also disabling v7.

And yes, if you convert your files to v7, you'll need to create a gedcom to
import the file back into v6. 

Ken McGinnis' message earlier nicely explained the pitfalls of having two
versions of Legacy on your computer!

Thanks for using Legacy.

Mark:

I would recommend installing in a new Directory (e.g., c:\Legacy7\)

Back up your existing Legacy 6 database and picture files.
Then copy your database and picture files into the correct locations under:
c:\Legacy7\Data and
C:\Legacy7\Pictures\

This way you can run either Legacy 6 or Legacy 7.

I have not found any need to go back to Legacy 6, but once your
database is upgraded to Legacy 7 format, it will hard to go back to
Legacy 6.

You will like Legacy 7!
The mapping feature is really neat.

Re: [LegacyUG] new FamilySearch integration?

2008-06-05 Thread GeoSci
Pat,
  The new FamilySearch Database will be addressed as soon as it is
public right now it is restricted and the search is not totally
set-up.  You may actually find bits in Legacy 7.0 that do not work yet
- they are setting it up.

Having IE7 just sit there (I must for several programs I use) will
really do no harm.  I never use it - preferring Firefox.  The mapping
program (Virtual Earth) requires IE7.  It is worth it!

If you begin to enter a source it will ask you if you want to use the
new source writer.  The ability to convert old sources to source
writer is not yet available.

 Map My Family (I CANNOT USE THIS ANYWAY BECAUSE I DON'T HAVE AND DON'T WANT

 Legacy Charting (I already had access to this via the free download--all I

 So did I pay for an upgrade to Deluxe just for the Source Writer

The install pasword only gives you the standard version.  You need the

From receipt of purchase confirmation email to receipt of customer number
email took 4 hours and 34 minutes: 11:34PM to 4:08AM.

Very frustrating--I am a paid customer.  I wanted to upgrade to the 7.0
Deluxe from my 6.0 Deluxe.  First I downloaded the free 7.0 version and
then purchased the upgrade.  In the meantime, I was told I would be
emailed the install password (used to be family for 6.0) so I could at
least play around with the 7.0 standard.

Alas, I got no such email and the recorded message on the Tech line
(long since closed) had the OLD password.

Does anyone know the new one for 7.0?  I was hoping Legacy would keep up
with their tech recorded messages--don't release 7.0 until you have that
in place. Very frustrating to any customer, free or paying.

RE: [LegacyUG] Mapping Event Addresses

2008-06-05 Thread Linda Bischoff
I use the following way of recording cemeteries:

Name of town - name of cemetery, county, state, country

ie: Dodge City - Maple Grove Cemetery, Ford Co., Kansas, USA

This is recorded in the burial location. That way, I can move the pin on
the maps right to the cemetery. I suppose you could add the plot info in
parens after the cemetery's name and move the pin right to the place of
burial.

You could do the same thing for any kind of locations that you want to
pin-point. In the events, place of Residence could be Dodge City - 908 A
St., Ford Co. Kansas, then you could pinpoint the exact location of the
house.

I list the town first so that all locations are together in the location
index.

Evangelisch-Reformierta, Kirche, Edenkoben, Pfalz, Bayern, Germany

Any idea how to put it so the mapping progrom will map it? (or where it
is??)

Thanks

Re: [LegacyUG] Dup Name Check

2008-06-05 Thread Cathy

Hi Larry,

No Legacy doesn't have a Duplicate Name Check on entry.

I suggest your wife gets into the habit of just entering a name and 
then flicking to the Index View to check whether they are already 
there before entering more information -or looking for the name in 
the Index View before adding anything.


It's a feature that has been often asked for but I can't recall why 
it isn't added. It's not a feature I feel a need for so which is no 
doubt why I can't recall.

Does Legacy have the ability to do a person/name dup check on entry 
of a person? Several programs do, but I cannot see where that is 
done within legacy, and if not, that feature really needs to be 
added. I have seen her (my better half) more than once lose her 
temper because the person she just put in was already there and now 
she has a merging mess on her hand.


So does Legacy do what most other genealogy software programs do?

Re: [LegacyUG] Version 7.0 - Great Job

2008-06-05 Thread Teresa Keough

I usually lurk but needed to weigh in on this -
First off, Jan - I hope all goes well for you with your test results - what 
you are facing is indeed the serious stuff of life.
Second, the LUG received advance notification late afternoon Wednesday June 
3 from Geoff that Version 7 was ready to download/purchase, something we 
have all been waiting for (some more patiently than others).  I went to the 
site, reviewed the choices, made mine and shopped - everything on the site 
was clear and quite user-friendly (9:30 pm).  Within 10 minutes I received 
via email a receipt and thanks for my purchase.  Within 5 hours I received 
my password and instructions (2:00 am!).  This morning when I went through 
my email I followed the instructions and everything went smoothly - all my 
customizations moved from Version 6 to 7 without any problem.  Now I am up 
and running and able to play with the new version.
Excellent job Millennia - I could not be more pleased.  I am hoping you all 
get some well deserved rest soon.  I am also hoping that some on this list 
get over themselves and their amazing sense of self importance or the sense 
that they know how to do everything better.  Millennia is selling this 
product, they know their capabilities and time constraints.  They can put 
the product out there and we can purchase or not on their terms - in many, 
if not all, instances when our purchases are made on line our credit cards 
are debited prior to receiving a product - I don't know why Wynthner is so 
aggrieved (not only in this instance but also a laundry list of business 
issues over the past month). Life is too short and most often the glass is 
half full! I have finally had enough of this second guessing of Millennia 
and I for one think you did an excellent job with your roll out.  Enough 
already.

Very frustrating--I am a paid customer. I wanted to upgrade to the 7.0
Deluxe from my 6.0 Deluxe. First I downloaded the free 7.0 version and then
purchased the upgrade. In the meantime, I was told I would be emailed the
install password (used to be family for 6.0) so I could at least play around
with the 7.0 standard.

Alas, I got no such email and the recorded message on the Tech line (long
since closed) had the OLD password.

Does anyone know the new one for 7.0? I was hoping Legacy would keep up
with their tech recorded messages--don't release 7.0 until you have that in
place. Very frustrating to any customer, free or paying.

Re: [LegacyUG] Source titling question

2008-06-05 Thread Elizabeth Richardson
Which brings me back to my original question. What is the underlying thought 
process that makes LUGers group by type rather than by name or location? And 
to insert here, I do have my US Census records grouped by type because they 
truly have no location other than in the source detail attached to each 
census event, and none apply to any one family but is available to use as a 
source for all families living at the time. But my original source, The 
Thompson and Given Families is groupd with other sources for Thompson, 
rather than as a group which you might call Book. (And not grouped as 
Given, nor Stewart, nor Ferguson, nor Pennsylvania, nor Ohio, nor any of the 
other surnames or locations contained therein.)

Elizabeth:

Grouping by location is a fine way to handle certain records.  Most 
people
handle census records just that way and many others group vital records 
by

location.

As Angela pointed out, grouping by family is problematic when you run 
into
an extended family in a census.  And what do you do if you're lucky 
enough

to find records for several of your lines in Cutter's 1915 _New England
Families_, for example?  (I have 23 different lines in that handy book.)
Of
course it would be ideal to go to the original records, but what if you
just
can't because they no longer exist or are not available to the public?
Would you create 23 separate master sources--one for each surname?

You can certainly group by family if you like.  Legacy is flexible enough
to
make later changes relatively easy.  I've grouped and regrouped more than
a
couple of times myself.

Hello Keith,

Bayern = Bavaria in Germany - cf BMW car. (Bavarian Motor Works in German)

Kirche  is Church.

Bavaria is the geographically largest Lande 
(state) in Germany, its capital is Munich (Munchen).


So, it is the Reformed Evangelic Church in EdenKoben.

Pfalz is German for Palatinate.

Edenkoben is a municipality in the Rheinland Palatinate.

Re: [LegacyUG] best practice for information collaboration

2008-06-05 Thread JLB
Legacy has 'IntelliShare' where one person keeps the Master File and 
co-workers contribute their family files for merging before sending the 
new file back out to everyone to continue working on.  Since it sounds 
like no such arrangement has been implemented so far by you and your 
relative, I don't think there is a plan except for one you invent as you 
go.  I am in the same situation with a cousin.  So far she's using FTM 
(tsk, some people) so she just sends me descendant book reports and so 
on when she feels like it and I go through the whole thing one line at a 
time (the last one was 237 pages) adding in the stuff I don't have yet, 
referring to the end of the chart for the sources.  It's the height of 
inefficiency.  

It's called IntelliShare.  And if you and your relative are both using 
Legacy it's not too late to set it up.

 Subject: Re: [LegacyUG] Legacy 7 - Maiden Names and Married Names

 When I installed V7 (on Monday!), it prompted for whether to
 automatically created the married names for women (can't remember the
 exact wording). So, that would be a global setting. However, this
 option appears to be for NEW marriages created. You can apply to all
 existing marriage from the OptionsCustomiseData Entry Rule for
 generating default married names and clicking Apply.

 They show up very nicely identified in the Index view when the option
 Include married names is selected. However, I noted it seems to only
 use the main surname (and not any alternates) of the husband.

 I didn't see a way to set it at the individual level. For me, this
 isn't a problem. The dominate cultural practice of my ancestors was to
 change the woman's surname upon marriage. So, today, even women who
 keep their birth surname often use both names legally (one socially
 and one professionally). Even if the woman doesn't choose to use both
 or only her birth surname, she will still likely receive
 correspondence in her husband's surname.

 2008/6/3 Belinda :
 I've just finished watching the video online for some of the new features of
 Legacy 7 and I love the inclusion of the married names in indexes etc which
 is relevant for the vast majority of marriages in my file. But haven't been
 able to download the program yet so I'm not able to check this out for
 myself but what I'm wondering is there a solution to or if, not any
 suggestions for work arounds for the following.

 I like more and more women have retained my maiden name on marriage. What
 I'm wondering does the program have a check box or something for each women
 that you can tick if name was not changed on marriage (which would then
 alter indexes etc) or if not what would LUG members suggest as a work around
 for this situation.

 Thanks in advance.

The first three words are Protestant Reformed Church, so for a start you

It's just simpler for the average person.Since v7 converts your

files) to C:\Legacy7\Data (v7 files).


If you have pictures in C:\Legacy\Pictures the v7 files will still 
work.   But, a few months from now when you want to get rid of v6 from 
your computer because you never user it any longer you will not be 
able to remove the v6 folder because it still contains the pictures.   
Of course you can move the pictures, video files, sound files, and 
other data type items like these over to your v7 folders.   But, now 
that they are moved you now have to go into Options, Customize, 
Locations tab, and click the view Current List of Multimedia 
Locations button and form this screen start changing each of the 
folders from the old location to the new location.   Or, get tricky 
and do a global Search and Replace on PicturePaths.


Most of the user settings will be retained and a normal user of Legacy 
simply installs it and continues to work on famiy history.  They don't 
have to re-setup everything to their liking.


I guess it's just several small things that for probably a lot of 
people on this list installing to a new folder would be a piece of 
cake but for many users who are not very famiiar with computers and 
getting around software I feel it is easier for them to just install 
right over 6.0 which is where it will default to.


I simply recommended users install over 6.0 which from our point of 
view simplifies tech support calls.   The end user only have one copy 
of Legacy. Legacy was designed to be installed over the previous 
version and simply work.


If you know how to work with files and are pretty good working with 
Legacy go ahead and install to a separate folder as it's really not 
that big of deal and you will be able to quickly figure out any small 
thing that needs to be done.


Either way is fine with me, you choose.

Connecticut was added. In 1688, New York was added. In 1689, it was dissolved. 
In what respect are you stating 'New England is not a location?'.  I have also 
used New England as a 'fake' state for source purposes only. Example:

 Elizabeth:

 Grouping by location is a fine way to handle certain records.  Most people
 handle census records just that way and many others group vital records by
 location.

 As Angela pointed out, grouping by family is problematic when you run into
 an extended family in a census.  And what do you do if you're lucky enough
 to find records for several of your lines in Cutter's 1915 _New England
 Families_, for example?  (I have 23 different lines in that handy book.) 
 Of
 course it would be ideal to go to the original records, but what if you 
 just
 can't because they no longer exist or are not available to the public?
 Would you create 23 separate master sources--one for each surname?

 You can certainly group by family if you like.  Legacy is flexible enough 
 to
 make later changes relatively easy.  I've grouped and regrouped more than 
 a
 couple of times myself.

 OK, why do we care that a particular *type* of source is listed with its

 family?

be there for the mapping program to use.  I have several other pieces

[LegacyUG] Legacy Charting Pre-release - SUCCESS!

2008-06-05 Thread Kris Strotman
  I'm going to a Family Reunion in less than 2 weeks and decided to try 
printing a descendants chart using the pre-release version of Legacy Charting.  
I have to report that the resulting printout was FABULOUS!!  I had 5 
generations, printed in color, with 272 names, pictures, range of lifetime 
(e.g., 1856-1904 or 1950-).  I didn't want to clutter the boxes with too much 
information, just wanted a great visual for all to see and find themselves and 
relationship to others.
  I was able to grab and pull the chart margin (top/bottom) from 11 to 22 
(the size of the color copier it would be printing on), and I was able to move 
the various generations up and down en masse to better fill the page, and also 
reposition some individuals to spread out some crowded areas.  The chart was 8' 
long.  After fiddling with it for a pleasant visual format, including changing 
the borders on the boxes and using a generational color scheme, I saved the 
file using the save as feature.  The next day I added a few more pictures to 
my database and pulled up the existing chart.  The new pictures were there, but 
I don't recall if I had to do a refresh or update to my existing file 
(sorry, just don't remember).  I saved the chart again, and then used the 
publish button to save it as a pdf.  I took the file on a USB flash drive to 
Staples (stationery/office supplies store) copy center and they printed it on 
photo quality paper.  It turned
 out just the way I wanted it!! (and just the way it looked on my computer 
screen).  It took about 3 hours to print, but the resulting chart is absolutely 
gorgeous!!
  I haven't heard anything about Legacy Charting [pre-release] for a while now 
and wanted to remind folks of this option.  With all the griping and 
complaining lately, I also wanted to post a POSITIVE message and to say THANK 
YOU to Millennia Corp for such a great product!!!  I'm just thrilled at the 
result.  I know the chart will be the centerpiece of the reunion and I can't 
wait to show it off.

 Belinda,
 I think you can pick the married name thing globally - but each
 individual can be set to ignore - so it should work for you. I do not
 use the feature since quite some time ago - I put an AKA in for each
 married female using their married name. I can include AKA (or not)
 as I wish in any list (even under Legacy 6). There are LOTS of neat
 things in the new Legacy 7 -- I have spent several weeks trying to
 make parts crash - found a few - but most of the bugs are gone!
 Enjoy!

Re: [LegacyUG] Help with Install password for Legacy 7.0 Free version

The mail is taking about 12 hours to go through today, at least at my

resolved or one has had a change of heart about it.  It was not so much 
the lag between paying and receiving the product in terms of pennies, 
but the psychological shock of expecting that paying meant downloading

Let's get some perspective into this please!  I am sick of all the whingers

has got beyond a joke.  I have been as keen as anyone else to get my hands

I got confirmation of my order - along with a reminder of what was clearly
spelled out on the website - that I would receive a separate email with
download instructions and password by the end of the next working day (but
probably sooner!)  So I wait!  The world is not going to come to an end
because I don't have it this minute!  In the whole scheme of things having
to wait for the password is very, very minor.  You see, I am waiting for
results of a CT scan and liver biopsy to see if I do in fact have secondary
cancer from the breast cancer I thought I had beaten for six years!  Sort of
makes waiting for a Legacy password pale into insignificance doesn't it!

Alas, I got no such email and the recorded message on the Tech line (long

Does anyone know the new one for 7.0?  I was hoping Legacy would keep up

RE: [LegacyUG] Installing version 7

2008-06-05 Thread Mark K
Ok here is what I did as I was too impatient to wait for a response and this 
mailing list took hours to post my query (I still cant believe everyone uses a 
horrible mailing list rather than a forum).
 
Anyway, what I did was first to backup my entire legacy directory (c:\Legacy) 
and all my datafiles.  I found further details on the download page that said 
to uninstall legacy 6 so I did then and then installed V7.
 
Since it needed a password and I didnt have it after many hours I emailed 
legacy and they sent it to me.
 
I then installed the new one into c:\legacy.  It picked up all my old settings 
and preferences as the uninstall didnt uninstall everything, obviously, and v7 
works fine.
 
By uninstalling you do get some old drivers off your system which is probably 
the main advantage to doing it this way.
 
I expect in the next week I will get a reg key for v7 and will then be very 
happy.
 
I agree with many users that sending the pw when you dl is not working very 
well, and it didnt work for me but have a thought for Legacy.  They will

There will be glitches. For a little bit of patience, and some manners, 
everyone will end up a lot happier.

Re: [LegacyUG] Legacy 6 and Legacy 7

2008-06-05 Thread GeoSci
I see no reason why one would do that - they use different formats for
the database.  But - it can be done.  Rename the SETUP program you
download (the exe) to Legacy7.exe.  When you run it - it will create a
folder called Legacy 7 and will not overwrite the Legacy 6 program,
etc.  You will have to copy your DATA and PICTURE Folders to the
Legacy7 install if you want to use them.  When you open a family file
- it will be converted to the 7 format and be unusable in Legacy 6
(thus my original thought).  BACK-UP everything first - I believe this
is correct.

[LegacyUG] Ver 7 mapping and push pins

2008-06-05 Thread Dede Holden
I've read the archives and I've read the help files, but I'm still a
little confused about how the mapping and push pins work.  If these
questions are answered in one of the new videos, let me know and I
will buy today!

Question 1: If you have a street address for the cemetery, it is
properly entered in the Burial Address field, which is accessed by
clicking the arrow at the end of the Burial location field.  When you
put it in the proper place, then Map My Places only finds the location
entered from the Master Location list.  It does not find the specific
cemetery.

I have read several suggestions about how others enter this, but if
you have to enter the specific street address for each location, won't
this make your Master Location List rather long and cumbersome?  If
this is the only way, I have lots of work to do to get the mapping
feature to work properly.

Question 2: For some reason, the push pin for my parents' hometown
comes up on the same street they live on, only five blocks south.  I
have NOT entered their address, so I'm guessing this is just where VE
has decided to put the pin for their town.

It feels like we should be able to click on the push pin and drag it
to where we want it to be, but I know that doesn't work.  Is there a
complicated reason why that is not an option?  I'll take a simple not
even possible.  I don't need a detailed explanation as to why not,
since I probably wouldn't understand it anyway! :)

Thanks to all of you who have taught me so much about Legacy (and genealogy!)

Re: [LegacyUG] German Locations

2008-06-05 Thread Scott Hessel
Hi Keith,

Try shortening the name to Edenkoben, Pfalz, Bayern, Germany and it
should show up on the Legacy v7 map.  I'm not an expert in German
geography (nor language!), but I believe Evangelisch-Reformierta,
Kirche roughly translates to the name of the church in that region.
Evangelisch-Reformierta roughly translates to Protestant Reformed
-- I think.  ;-)

On the v7 map, its Geo coordinates are N491703.967, E0080737.835.

Hope this helps!

Let's get some perspective into this please!  I am sick of all the

- and I know I am at risk of being ticked off for being off-topic, but it
has got beyond a joke.  I have been as keen as anyone else to get my hands
on Version 7.0.  30 minutes ago I paid for Deluxe 7.0, and within 5 
minutes

I got confirmation of my order - along with a reminder of what was clearly
spelled out on the website - that I would receive a separate email with
download instructions and password by the end of the next working day (but
probably sooner!)  So I wait!  The world is not going to come to an end
because I don't have it this minute!  In the whole scheme of things having
to wait for the password is very, very minor.  You see, I am waiting for
results of a CT scan and liver biopsy to see if I do in fact have 
secondary
cancer from the breast cancer I thought I had beaten for six years!  Sort 
of

makes waiting for a Legacy password pale into insignificance doesn't it!

Millennium staff - thank you for a fantastic product at a fantastic price.
I hope all the whingers have hard drive crashes! :-)

Re: [LegacyUG] accessed date

2008-06-05 Thread Cathy

Isn't that part of the source detail for each time you use that Master Source?

Though on most screens where you enter a URL for the Master Source 
there is a field for date. I've been leaving it blank as unless you 
are accessing a site that never changes or displays clearly when the 
database was posted and that database isn't being updated, a date 
doesn't apply to all uses of the Master source.


We did have Override options for the Master Sources in Beta but they 
seem to have disappeared and reappeared with the Source detail 
screens and I don't know why.

Not really. If you didn't upgrade to Deluxe, not only would you free

That's what I would have though as well. So I tried it again using

I've checked every setting I can find to make sure that they're the same

Re: [LegacyUG] Installing version 7

2008-06-05 Thread JLB
My first installation of v.7 went into the middle of Legacy 6, so I just 
deleted the whole folder, and reinstalled it under C:\ so it now sits 
alphabetically under the v.6 installation in the Windows folder tree.  I 
copied over my Picture folder contents and my main database, so it could 
transform it into the new v.7 database.  I can run them both easily 
(keeping separate names for the backup zips of course and different 
color schemes for quick ID) but I'm finding no point since I can turn 
off the Maps, the Source Writer and married names for women.  Without 
those, it's v.6 with benefits (eg. editing from the Master Lists) but 
without the confusion of too many changes at once.

Back up your existing Legacy 6 database and picture files.
Then copy your database and picture files into the correct locations

c:\Legacy7\Data and
C:\Legacy7\Pictures\

This way you can run either Legacy 6 or Legacy 7.



If you wish to keep v6, be very careful.  I told v7 to install to a 
new directory (Legacy7) and it went ahead and installed it in Legacy 
(overwriting v6).  Fortunately it turned out OK as I see no need now 
to keep v6 available and a plus was that v7 has kept all the custom 
settings I had in v6.

Re: [LegacyUG] no maps in Master Location list

2008-06-05 Thread Robert57P via Gmail

You have to click on one of the entries for the map to show up.

But I haven't figured out yet how to get multiple entries to show up on the 
map while one is in the Master Location List.  Suggestions?

I don't know of a simple way of changing the location of Legacy 7 once 
installed for the first time. It sounds as though you have not transferred your 
user files to the correct place. They should be in the same directory relative 
to the root as they are for Legacy 6.

RE: [LegacyUG] Huge Master Source List (was Source titling question)

2008-06-05 Thread Geoff Rasmussen
Cliff,

Interesting questions. Let me tell a little about my experience.

Firstly, like others, I sure wish we had the SourceWriter when I first
started doing sources. We didn't have it, so we did the best we could, and
hopefully achieved some degree of consistency. At the very least, entering a
source with the general information.

So I've got a lot of sources - thousands, which has taken years to research
and enter. Since I haven't had the source conversion tool available, I've
been getting more acquainted with the SourceWriter simply by recreating my
existing sources.

There's no way that I'm going to go through my entire master source list,
along with all of its citations, to convert them to the new format. Not all
at once anyway. Rather, as I'm working on an existing family, I will spend
the time to recreate the sources/citations. I can't tell you all how many
new things I've noticed in my documents by doing it this way. While the
documents didn't change, my perspective of them has, and I've noticed that
in my original citations, I didn't include everything that was relevant. The
SourceWriter has not only helped me enter all of the information correctly,
but it has given me a second chance to review my documents.

Next, when I'm adding in new people, I just use the SourceWriter. No
conversion tool necessary.

As we developed the SourceWriter templates, we did our best to correctly
interpret the models as shown in Elizabeth Mills' Evidence Explained. Some
things were difficult to interpret. Many things provide a lot of flexibility
and so we tried to incorporate all of this the best we could. Sometimes
there are fields that are difficult to understand without understanding more
about the source type. For example, what is a Series, or Collection, or
Record Group? So to try to help the Legacy user understand what goes in the
fields, you'll notice the faint gray text inside the data entry boxes. Also,
if you hover your cursor on top of the field label, a yellow tool tip will
appear showing the entire example. We've built in hint tools that will be
developed. In other words, if you have a question about which source type to
select, you'll be able to just click on a little question mark button where
frequently asked questions about the source type will be answered. This will
come with time. Also, while Evidence Explained has hundreds of models, not
every model includes an example of how to cite each medium. For example, one
of the models in the book might explain how to cite the record on microfilm,
but doesn't cover the same source as a database or an online image. Our
first release of the SourceWriter contains the templates for most of the
models in the book. We will be next working to fill in all of the missing
media so every source type has a full range of media from which to choose.

Just some of my thoughts

Thanks,

Geoff Rasmussen

I agree that I love the idea of the Source Writer and if it had been there
from the beginning I might have done things different.  However I am a
splitter and rarely use the source detail.  All the information is placed in
the source itself.  I might use it on a book with multiple people in it.
But that is it.

As a result and for consistency, I probably won't be using the Source Writer
at this time.  It will require more investigation.  Maybe convert the
sources in a small sample database and see what happens.

 At the bottom of the MARRIAGE screen is a pull down list. It only includes
 2 items:
 0-None - don't generate married names
 1-Replace wife's surname with husband's surname
 Only problem is it then brings up a dialogue box asking if you want it to be
 the default. Since they made it a pull-down (and not just a check box), it
 would have been nice if they changed it to:
 0-None - don't generate married names for this person
 1-Replace wife's surname with husband's surname for this person
 2-None - don't generate married names for ALL FUTURE people
 3-Replace wife's surname with husband's surname for ALL FUTURE people
 or something like that
 But that is a VERY minor quibble!

 You can also totally override the marriage name for either the male and the
 female on this same screen, just above this pull down list.

Ken McGinnis wrote:
 It's just simpler for the average person.Since v7 converts your
 family files the only way to keep v6 on your computer and to also have
 v7 would be you now have to copy family files to new locations.   For
 example you would have to copy family files from C:\Legacy\Data (v6
 files) to C:\Legacy7\Data (v7 files).

 If you have pictures in C:\Legacy\Pictures the v7 files will still
 work.   But, a few months from now when you want to get rid of v6 from
 your computer because you never user it any longer you will not be
 able to remove the v6 folder because it still contains the pictures.
 Of course you can move the pictures, video files, sound files, and
 other data type items like these over to your v7 folders.   But, now
 that they are moved you now have to go into Options, Customize,
 Locations tab, and click the view Current List of Multimedia
 Locations button and form this screen start changing each of the
 folders from the old location to the new location.   Or, get tricky
 and do a global Search and Replace on PicturePaths.

 Most of the user settings will be retained and a normal user of Legacy
 simply installs it and continues to work on famiy history.  They don't
 have to re-setup everything to their liking.

 I guess it's just several small things that for probably a lot of
 people on this list installing to a new folder would be a piece of
 cake but for many users who are not very famiiar with computers and
 getting around software I feel it is easier for them to just install
 right over 6.0 which is where it will default to.

 I simply recommended users install over 6.0 which from our point of
 view simplifies tech support calls.   The end user only have one copy
 of Legacy. Legacy was designed to be installed over the previous
 version and simply work.

 If you know how to work with files and are pretty good working with
 Legacy go ahead and install to a separate folder as it's really not
 that big of deal and you will be able to quickly figure out any small
 thing that needs to be done.

 Either way is fine with me, you choose.

Very frustrating--I am a paid customer.  I wanted to upgrade to the 7.0
Deluxe from my 6.0 Deluxe.  First I downloaded the free 7.0 version and
then purchased the upgrade.  In the meantime, I was told I would be
emailed the install password (used to be family for 6.0) so I could at
least play around with the 7.0 standard.

Alas, I got no such email and the recorded message on the Tech line
(long since closed) had the OLD password.

Does anyone know the new one for 7.0?  I was hoping Legacy would keep up
with their tech recorded messages--don't release 7.0 until you have that
in place. Very frustrating to any customer, free or paying.

thanks

Re: [LegacyUG] Source titling question

2008-06-05 Thread Wendy Howard

Elizabeth,

There is no right or wrong way to name your Master Sources in 
Legacy.  It is an extremely flexible system, where you can develop 
something to suit yourself.


If you don't want to sort by type - or name or location - then don't do 
it!  Do what feels/seems right to you.  It will be fine.  :-)


Kind Regards,
Wendy Howard

*Subject:* [LegacyUG] Source titling question


Which brings me back to my original question. What is the underlying 
thought process that makes LUGers group by type rather than by name or 
location? And to insert here, I do have my US Census records grouped 
by type because they truly have no location other than in the source 
detail attached to each census event, and none apply to any one family 
but is available to use as a source for all families living at the 
time. But my original source, The Thompson and Given Families is 
groupd with other sources for Thompson, rather than as a group which 
you might call Book. (And not grouped as Given, nor Stewart, nor 
Ferguson, nor Pennsylvania, nor Ohio, nor any of the other surnames or 
locations contained therein.)

Re: [LegacyUG] German Locations

2008-06-05 Thread [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Cathy wrote:

Isn't Kirche Church? I think you have an extra comma.
Evangelical-Reform Church in Edenkoben ...

Sometimes churches, cemeteries etc are in VE and it will map a location 
that includes them but sometimes you have to go for the town.
If the location has a current street before the town name, VE will 
usually find that street.


However, regardless of how a location is entered, VE can do weird things 
and place the pin in another country or area altogether. Just as well we 
can override the automatic find and I suggest that if you do use the 
automatic find, that you check every single location carefully.

I went to dictionary.com and used their translator, just to be sure, and I find my suspicions are true;  that address is 
mixed English and German.  The Word Reformierta is off to me  I don't recognize it as from any other language, but I'm 
sure it is.  It seems it probably imply a meaning of 'reformed', but reformed in German is Verbassert.  For complete 
German, I believe it should have been:


Evangelisch-Verbessert Kirche, Edenkoben, Phalz, Bayern, Deutschland

This amounts to the English:

Protestant Reformed Church, Edenkoben, Pfalz, Bavaria, Germany

However, I personally don't use the foreign terms except in the names of the towns such as this Edenkoben, Phalz, Bavaria. 
 Those who read my work will probably be English Speaking, hense, I like to use the English versions for everything like this.


Also, if you're using an English version of the Mapping Program, then your 
entries should be in English.

RE: [LegacyUG] Geo Location

2008-06-05 Thread ronald ferguson

John  Martin,

I really can't see why you are getting such bad results. I assume that you both 
have England (or whichever) at the end of the location field. At least mine 
stays in GB when it can't find somewhere - often goes to 10 Downing Street!

Ir might be that I am getting better results because I have the street name in 
the Location Field. I do know that the success rate is much worse when I do not.

BTW, strictly speaking North Wales is not a country. If VE was a British 
product then maybe, just maybe, it would have recognised it :-)

You can, but it is not recommended. If you do you will also have to transfer

When installing just specify the folder where you want it to go.

Hi Carol,

Yes, you can change the sentence structure in an event.  :-)

There are two choices - change the structure for just that one 
occurrence of an event (Sentence Override), or change the structure 
for all events of that type (Edit Event Sentence Definition).  In both 
cases, on-screen guidance is provided, and the Help should cover it, 
too.  Please post to the list again if you need more assistance with the

Hope this helps.  :-)

Hi JL,

You can share the geo database. You just have to tell each Legacy

If you have IE7 on your computer, then the blank map occasionally is a 
bit of a mystery. I've experienced it as have some other beta testers 
but we can't reliably reproduce to work out what is causing it 
occasionally. Either closing out of the Location list and going back 
in or sometimes closing Legacy and reopening usually sorts it. Some 
just say - patience. It does take longer to come up the first time you

Occasionally Legacy forgets that you have an internet connection. Not

v.6 but it won't.  Does that have anything to do with it?

Re: [LegacyUG] Geo Location

2008-06-05 Thread John Magyari
There's a Beta for MapCrucher based on Microsoft Virtual Earth.  A free 
download goggle for it.


You can zoom in and it will display location on the cross hairs.
Great if you want exact location information for house, cemetery, 
hospital, etc.


If you can find it on the map you then get the longitude, latitude.

Hi Martin,

I don't use it.

I prefer to research locations for myself - and the mapping has made 
it easier to explore the neighbourhood once you've found it.
So now my locations are slowly getting Lats and Longs added from the 
mapping.

Janice,
Since this is data that will change with each citation, the accessed date is
included as a field on the Citation details screen, rather than on the
Source screen. It shows up correctly within the parentheses in the final
source-citation. 

Note: There is a glitch to be aware of. There is no space after the closing
parenthesis and the following text. Adding a space at the start of the next
element of the citation detail will insert a space there, but it will also
insert an unwanted space in the bibliography. I have reported it via this
list a while ago, so hopefully it will be fixed in due course.

Just installed and opened Legacy 7, and used the SourceWriter for the first

Is there a way (even a workaround) to insert the accessed date into the

Looking forward to exploring other functions. Thanks, Legacy!

Re: [LegacyUG] German Locations

2008-06-05 Thread Cathy

Isn't Kirche Church? I think you have an extra comma.
Evangelical-Reform Church in Edenkoben ...

Sometimes churches, cemeteries etc are in VE and it will map a 
location that includes them but sometimes you have to go for the town.
If the location has a current street before the town name, VE will 
usually find that street.


However, regardless of how a location is entered, VE can do weird 
things and place the pin in another country or area altogether. Just 
as well we can override the automatic find and I suggest that if you 
do use the automatic find, that you check every single location carefully.

Re: [LegacyUG] Legacy 7 - Maiden Names and Married Names

Actually there are now 3 AKAs:
* The true AKAs that we put under the AKA button (actually the Alternate 
Names button)
* The Marriage - maiden name changed to male's last name that the system 
generates
* The nick-name in quotes in the GIVEN field (ie:  William Blake Bill

To help avoid future confusion: in Legacy 7 there are now two AKAs the one 
which we all love/loath and the new one for married names of spouses. It 
might be helpful to say to which one is referring.

Belinda,
I think you can pick the married name thing globally - but each
individual can be set to ignore - so it should work for you. I do not
use the feature since quite some time ago - I put an AKA in for each
married female using their married name. I can include AKA (or not)
as I wish in any list (even under Legacy 6). There are LOTS of neat
things in the new Legacy 7 -- I have spent several weeks trying to
make parts crash - found a few - but most of the bugs are gone!
Enjoy!

You said you were new to the group.  Legacy will improve on these over
time - updates are quite regular!  They have added several and the
complaints about the delay for 7.0 was so loud - they released it with
what they had ready.

List rules say all messages must be in PLAN TEXT - your message was
