RE: [LegacyUG] Merging Basic Sources into Sourcewriter

Richard,

As far as I know Legacy has not made any announcement regarding the conversion 
tool and I am sure they would not now ever use the word "soon" let alone "very 
soon" and where on earth "...a week or so" came from I haven't a clue.

I fear that you are unjustifiably raising expectations.

Re: [LegacyUG] Census vs Residence

2009-01-06 Thread Hope Bagot Bees
I'd go along with this - it's easy to see from the individual screen 
just what you do know about a person.  As nearly everyone I add is long 
dead, their 'pattern of migration' be it from one village to another or 
one country to another is plain to see.

the info I like.
 
Just my two cents.


Before I learned that there was a Census Event, I put all
occurrences in the Census as Residence Events.  Is there a
significant difference between using the Census Event vs the
Residence Event?

[LegacyUG] Ibid feature and unknown spouse

2009-01-06 Thread jaemtp
Hello.

I just purchased 7.0 Deluxe edition and have the most recent upgrade.
Does anyone have trouble using the "Ibid" feature?
I have a check mark in the box labled "Use Ibid for Repeating Master Sources" 
under Customize---> Sources ---> Citation Formatting. It does not work. The 
Source citations report seems redundant when repeating the same Master Source 
several times. 

About Unknown names: 
I have an individual in a family file who was married more than once. We do not 
have any Given name or Maiden name for his first wife. All we know was that he 
was married to her within a certain time frame of several years. It seems that 
I cannot leave the name field blank, and if I enter Unknown into the Given 
name, it shows up on Potential Problems report along with the instructions that 
"descriptive words that are not names should not be entered into name fields."  
I love it when machines do my thinking for me!

[LegacyUG] Sibling relationships

2009-01-06 Thread jaemtp
Hello again!

Is anyone else having trouble with sibling relationships. 
I have three siblings in my file who were born to the same mother. The mother 
gave birth to a son and daughter to her first husband; and a son to her second 
husband.  The Relationships Report incorrectly classifies the two sons as 
"step-brothers" when they are Half-brothers. However, the daughter and the #2 
son are correctly classified "half brother" and "half sister."

Since the introduction of the Source Writer the use of "ibid" appears to have 
become redundant - which is a polite way of saying it no longer seems to be 
availanle.
 
I also do not like the use of unknown, so what I do is create the marriage to 
an "unknown" and in Family View right click on the appropriate window and 
delete. The marriage still remains but with no names given in reports/web pages.

I have dozens of Unknown either as forename, surname or both in my

If you don't agree with any of Legacy's strictures about what you should

Re: [LegacyUG] Online Backup was Rel. Calc. and Back-up

2009-01-06 Thread Ann Parsons
Hello Dede,

I am posting this to the list as this pertains to backing up Legacy.

Your message has been a great help to me regarding backups. I looked at the 
Mozy website to see the cost in the event that one needed to retrieve their 
backup from Mozy. I could not find any mention of retrieval cost. Dick 
Eastman's newsletter had the comment from a reader that it cost her $85.00 
U.S. to retrieve her backup. If you or other of our Mozy's users know the 
retrieval cost would you post it?

Re: [LegacyUG] Merging Basic Sources into Sourcewriter

2009-01-06 Thread Brian/Support

Lew,

When I tested this and reported the problem with merging basic sources 
into sourcewriter sources I found that the detail entries from the old 
style source were lost.


The Basic source details were not copied to the sourcewriter template 
fields. Initially when you look at the source in the source list the old 
details are shown but if you click on edit details you will find that 
those entries are missing from the sourcewriter details screen. If you 
then save instead of cancel the only entries that will remain are those 
hard coded into the template (such as the microfilm series number for 
census records).


The programmer elected to prevent merging of old and new style sources 
in response to that problem report.

Re: [LegacyUG] Ibid feature and unknown spouse

2009-01-06 Thread jaemtp
Thank you for your replies about the Source Writer and Ibid features and 
also about entering "unknown" in name fields.  I just purchased the 7.0 
Deluxe edition Dec 19. So this is somewhat new to me.


Your comment about the "ibid" feature no longer being available since the 
introduction of Source Writer caused some thought provoking and disturbing 
questions.


I don't doubt you. Yet, if they are no longer making it available, then why 
is it being used as a selling point?  The "ibid" feature is clearly 
adverstised as a currently available feature in Legacy 7 in conjunction with 
the Source Writer.  Legacy advertises on its web page Comparison Chart 
(under Notes and Sources) that Legacy 7 has the Source Writer with over 700 
templates. In one of the categories underneath this, it says: "sources use 
'ibid' feature" and is answered "Yes" in red highlight.  Legacy 7 is 
compared against four other genealogy software programs. Only two others, 
Roots Magic and The Master Genealogist, are marked "yes" for the Ibid 
feature.  The other two are marked "no."


Additionally, there are instructions for the ibid feature are in the Help 
Index Citation Formatting (7-30); and the software that I paid for and 
downloaded three weeks ago has a check-box under the Customize menu to 
enable the "ibid" feature.  Why am I being lead to believe that it is there 
when it is not?
Now, today, I read about someone looking for a Source Template Conversion 
Tool.  Ironically, I spent some extra time this moring trying to find that 
feature also. There are instructions in the Help Index (7-1330)  and the 
Manual (p. 72). I was beginning to wonder why I could not find until I came 
here and read that there has not been an announcment as to when it will be 
released!

RE: [LegacyUG] Ibid feature and unknown spouse

2009-01-06 Thread ronald ferguson

I cannor help re the marketing policy of Legacy, but I didn't quite say it 
wasn't available - it still may be for old style sources. As I see it, though, 
the New Source Writer has a citation for the first time a specific source is 
used and another for when it is used again, which is when would normally use 
ibid. Since both cannot be used then my conclusion follows.
 
Off the cuff, I think you have found all items in the Help Files which are not 
yet part of Legacy. In general you will find the Help Files more uptodate than 
other sources of assistance, and in the cases of Source Conversion, somewhat in 
advance!

[LegacyUG] Cemetery photos

2009-01-06 Thread Gary Crull
This is from a recent thread...OK, so I'm a little slow picking up on it!
ha ha

Is there any indication that a photo is available using this method? The
Photo Icon on the main Family screen shows when there are photos
associated with the individual. This is also where I've been parking my
tombstone photos. 

I tried attaching a few tombstone photos using this procedure. However,
looks to me like if this method is used there is no indication anywhere a
cemetery photo is present unless the cross + is clicked from Burial line
from the Individuals screen to see if BURIAL PICTURES is check marked.

Am I correct in this assumption? If so, this is a decided DISadvantage in
that you don't know an individual in your database may have a tombstone
photo available. Using my method granted a tombstone photo is mixed in
with individual photos, but at least the Photo Icon alerts you to the
presence of some kind of photo - individual or whatever!

[LegacyUG] De or DE, Of or OF

2009-01-06 Thread Hope Bagot Bees
Just wondering what the most usual form is for old surnames.  I have a 
number of people using either 'of ' or 'de' attached to their surname. 
I have been accustomed to linking this to the end of the given name 
rather than at the beginning of the surname.  This results in mixed 
lists of surnames, e.g. the De Bohun family could come under D or B. 
Obviously it would be easier to have them together in the index, name 
lists etc.  My original thought was that they should come under B, but I 
have found the convention seems to be that they should be under D.


I suppose the same difficulty of indexes applies to other surnames where 
the spelling has changed over the years.  Any ideas, please?

Elizabeth

When you enter a burial photo using the + sign in Burial section of 
the main screen or you add it from the picture icon as a "Burial" 
photo, it is saved in the same place, shows in both locations and

Hi

It would be nice if people who, for some obsure reason, require "read 
receipts" would turn it off when posting to a group such as this, as it is 
intensely annoying to be asked for an acknowledgement when you are trying to 
quickly scan a set of emails and may not even be interested in the subject.

Cathy,

What you say is true, but. When you click on the half shaded Picture
Icon on the Family page said tombstone photo does NOT appear. In my test
only photos of Individuals show up when the Picture Icon is full colored.
If you have 2 photos of the individual and 1 photo of the tombstone only
the 2 photos of the individual are displayed.

Just seems to me that the tombstone photo should appear in the half
shaded Icon AND the full colored one as well!

RE: [LegacyUG] Cemetery photos

2009-01-06 Thread M. Brenzel
But the tombstone picture does show up!  You have to select Burial from the
drop-down list on the right side under the "Scan a Picture" button.  The
list contains anything for the Individual that can have a picture attached
to it.  By default, Individual pictures are displayed.  The first item in
the list is "All Pictures".  If the item has a picture attached to it, then
there is an asterisk (*) in front of the item's name.

Your email program should give you an option to deal with those

2009-01-06 Thread Ward Walker
Is ibid not for the case where the new footnote is the same as the one 
immediately above it? I would think that it could co-exist with the 
'subsequent citation' usage, which would cover scattered citations.


However, I think both suffer from the same issue as I have discussed 
previously (in the thread "Master Source Subsequent Citation Issue"). How 
can the software figure out that the Detail portion of the citation is 
identical to the original citation, or likewise to the citation of the 
preceeding footnote? (Re-citing the master source is not complicated, just 
re-citing the master + detail fields.)


The abbreviated 'subsequent citation' form appears to only be implemented 
for Source Writer citations, not old style. I can't say for ibid. My tests 
never seem to have adjacent identical footnotes.


Also note that the subsequent citation text currently only gets used in 
certain reports. It does get used in Descendant Narrative reports IF you 
choose to have the footnotes on each page rather than as endnotes all at the 
end.


I sent in several detailed bug reports about all this last month, using the 
link on the Legacy Home tab. I have not received any acknowledgement that 
they were received.

I cannor help re the marketing policy of Legacy, but I didn't quite say it 
wasn't available - it still may be for old style sources. As I see it, 
though, the New Source Writer has a citation for the first time a specific 
source is used and another for when it is used again, which is when would 
normally use ibid. Since both cannot be used then my conclusion follows.


Off the cuff, I think you have found all items in the Help Files which are 
not yet part of Legacy. In general you will find the Help Files more 
uptodate than other sources of assistance, and in the cases of Source 
Conversion, somewhat in advance!

Thank you for your replies about the Source Writer and Ibid features and
also about entering "unknown" in name fields. I just purchased the 7.0
Deluxe edition Dec 19. So this is somewhat new to me.

Your comment about the "ibid" feature no longer being available since the
introduction of Source Writer caused some thought provoking and disturbing
questions.

I don't doubt you. Yet, if they are no longer making it available, then 
why

is it being used as a selling point? The "ibid" feature is clearly
adverstised as a currently available feature in Legacy 7 in conjunction 
with

the Source Writer. Legacy advertises on its web page Comparison Chart
(under Notes and Sources) that Legacy 7 has the Source Writer with over 
700

templates. In one of the categories underneath this, it says: "sources use
'ibid' feature" and is answered "Yes" in red highlight. Legacy 7 is
compared against four other genealogy software programs. Only two others,
Roots Magic and The Master Genealogist, are marked "yes" for the Ibid
feature. The other two are marked "no."

Additionally, there are instructions for the ibid feature are in the Help
Index Citation Formatting (7-30); and the software that I paid for and
downloaded three weeks ago has a check-box under the Customize menu to
enable the "ibid" feature. Why am I being lead to believe that it is there
when it is not?
Now, today, I read about someone looking for a Source Template Conversion
Tool. Ironically, I spent some extra time this moring trying to find that
feature also. There are instructions in the Help Index (7-1330) and the
Manual (p. 72). I was beginning to wonder why I could not find until I 
came

here and read that there has not been an announcment as to when it will be
released!

Re: [LegacyUG] Cemetery photos

2009-01-06 Thread Cathy Vallevieni

GC:

You have to scan down the scroll on the right side  that starts with 
"individual" until you get to "burial".  Any item with an * in front 
of it has a photo.  They are grouped by category and, although I've 
only added Individual and Burial photos, I assume you can add photos 
under the other categories and they show up on different locations on 
the reports?  Maybe if you add a photo under events that are entered 
as occupations then they show under "occupations" on the scroll bar 
and print next to the occupation on reports?

RE: [LegacyUG] Cemetery photos

2009-01-06 Thread leo macdonald

GC, personally I would not place a cemetery photo in the photo gallery of the 
individual. I reserve this gallery for photos of the individual that are taken 
over a period of time from the birth of the person right up to the present day 
or the end of their life. But each person has a different way of doing things, 
if this works for you that's great. Remember that only the preferred photo that 
is selected will be displayed in reports.
As for entering a cemetery photo using the + sign in the burial section, to me 
this is like placing it in "La-La-Land", the photo does not print in reports, I 
stopped using this option a long time ago. Some day the programmers may make 
this feature operational, (don't hold your breath waiting for it to happen 
though).
I prefer to add an event to the person called "Cemetery Photo", "Cemetery 
Headstone", whatever you want to call it, then attach the photo to the event. 
You can also add whatever facts you want into the notes section in the event.

  Please TURN OFF request for receipt from recipient when sending mail to
  Legacy User Group, I know from time to time I forget to do so BUT believe me
  it is terribly annoying and also a bit suspect (sure way to collect email
  addresses for SPAM/etc which I know is not your intent.

  Have a nice day ? unknown

Except that some of us correspond with other people (not this list) such as 
employers, or co-workers working on a project, where we WANT to respond 
positively to certain read receipt requests. Turning it off globally at our 
end means we do not recieve them at all. The sender on the other hand, has 
the ability to make requests on a per-email basis.

Because it is much, much, much easier to modify your e-mail environment 
than to control the behavior of hundreds of strangers.
