Re: [LegacyUG] BASIC Cleanup

[Momalot66]

Uneducated me!!! What is a "pen" drive?   Like a USB?  . . . and I wouldn't 
mind if someone could email me the exact  steps on how and where to change the 
drive letters . . . I know I've seen it  before, just need some 
"re-education."  It sounds like such a great  idea.

That  should work, but only if she sets the drive letter to "R" on _EVERY_
computer  she uses her flash drive on. :)




Toddyou are so  right, I neglected to say that and I

Re: [LegacyUG] Pictures changed names to numbers

[Momalot66]

Thank you for your comments.  I don't think  I've been using a program called 
IrfanView, in fact I've never heard of it . . .  but anything is possible.  I 
use Norton Internet Security and hopefully I'm  not with viruses.  I would 
love to "noodle out" what happened.  I'm  suspicious that something may be 
wrong 
with my computer, but my computer ghru  hasn't been able to come over.  I 
have emailed with Jenny Benson of LUG  about finding a "computer help group" on 
line . . . she suggested Google as a  possibility, but so far I've been unable 
to figure it out!!!   :-(   I'll keep trying, and post if I ever "noodle" it 
out.   Thanks for asking.

Are you looking at the file locally or after uploading it to the web host? 
Also, did you delete ALL of the old files from your computer and /or web

I reinstalled Legacy Deluxe 5.0 (which I use), but the problem persists.

RE: [LegacyUG] Burial sites

[leo macdonald]

Hi Elizabeth, the only reason that I use the + sign for is to enter Death 
Notes. 
The address feature in there doesn't make a lot of sense to me so I don't use 
it.
The reply that was sent to you by Dennis will locate the cemeteries for you 
providing you have entered the name of the cemetery in the Name box.
When you get to the Events window you will see two boxes, one is the find box , 
the one next to it has a down arrow, click on it and select Event Addresses.

Re: [LegacyUG] Incorrect Relationships

[CE WOOD]

Becky,

Here is the advice from Brian in Legacy Support:
  If you want to submit a suggestion that the family view use direct 
relationships where possible we are happy to consider suggestions for new 
features.

  In Legacy 6.0 and 7.0 you can suggest a new feature by clicking on the link 
on the Legacy Home Tab Support Section

  Other users can make a suggestion here: 
http://www.legacyfamilytree.com/Suggest.asp

  Use the drop down list in the first box to select a category, Legacy 7 or 
Legacy Charting.

The more of us that make this suggestion, the more likely it will happen,  

I think that the closest direct relationship needs to be the default.  If 
someone wants simply the closest relationship, that needs to be an option.  
Unfortunately, as it is now and until they fix this genealogical flaw, we are 
stuck.  Too bad they didn't know tha the direct relationship is crucial whereas 
the closest is interesting.

Do make the suggestion.

Carolyn

  I agree completely that the direct relationship should be the one displaying. 
I reported this a while ago as a bug, I'm sorry to hear that it's part of the 
programming. If I didn't always set direct line as preferred before I set 
relationships when I add people to my family tree, I might never have noticed 
this. I'm sure there are many more of these than the ones I happened upon.

We need to let Legacy know that what is easier for programmers (CLOSEST) is 
not what genealogists need (DIRECT).

They need to have DIRECT as the default setting with an option for CLOSEST.

  And then the problem is compounded when Legacy finds the closest
  relationship to one person in the marriage. Speaking of Direct
  Ancestors which should always be grandparents, if it find the closest
  relationship to one person in the relationship is an aunt/uncle or
  cousin, then the spouse is Wife/husband of which indicates no blood
  relationship. If I didn't have Set Direct Relationship as Preferred, I
  would never know by looking at the relationship printed that the
  person was my grandparent.

  There must be a way to correct this, as I have used many other
  programs and they do display and calculate the relationship correctly.

So what you do is change the drive letter on your Pen drive to say "R" 
which should be a letter that would not normally be used when plugging in 
your Pen drive. That way when you plug it into different computers the 
drive letter will stay the same. QED.{;-)

That should work, but only if she sets the drive letter to "R" on _EVERY_
computer she uses her flash drive on. :)

RE: [LegacyUG] Burial sites

[ronald ferguson]

Elizabeth,
 
You may think this sounds stupid - but I assure you it ain't! Use Search to 
select the ones you want and tag them. Then go to Reports>All Reports>Name Tags 
which can be formatted to produce a report style output and select the ones 
which you have tagged.
 
You need to search the Address Fields top obtain your cemetries btw - if the 
Name field contains the name of the cemetry then search using this field.

SV: [LegacyUG] How to record same-sex couples?

[Legacy]

Hi,

it's not possible to do it in Legacy at the moment. But you can do it via MS
Access but there are some limitations in the process. For more information

I haven't tested this by myself.

I'm a new user of Legacy 7, so perhaps I'm missing something obvious.  I
can't figure out how to properly enter same-sex couples.  I could add a new
entry to the "status" list in the Marriage Information Window, but is there
some relatively standard way of doing this?

[LegacyUG] How to record same-sex couples?

[David E. Damouth]

I'm a new user of Legacy 7, so perhaps I'm missing something obvious.  I can't 
figure out how to properly enter same-sex couples.  I could add a new entry to 
the "status" list in the Marriage Information Window, but is there some 
relatively standard way of doing this?

Re: [LegacyUG] never married

Have you tried clearing/cleaning out the various memory tools such as 
Tools > Source Clipboard > clear all  and open the Individual 
Information Screen > right click on the word before a category such as 
Buried > choose Clear All.  

They are wonderful tools, used all over Legacy, but they can get 
corrupted.   They will start to rebuild anew the next time you enter 
information.


You might try to enter a person - just a name - save & then enter one 
fact at a time & save until the "offending" trigger appears.

You may like to try File>File Maintenance>Master Lists Clean-up. I would tick 
everything that is not going to affect things which you wish to retain. Having 
said that I haven't the faintest idea whether it will work!
 
I am assuming that you have tried File>File Maintenance>Check/Report - but I've 
not much hope for that either!

Michele,
Assuming same for Ver 7
In ver 6 Deluxe, Individual Information Screen - there is a box near the
bottom of the screen.
"This individual never married and had no children."
Is this the box you see checked with every entry?

Okay, this is getting on my nerves.  Every time I enter birth and death
info on an infant and then I hit the save button, Legacy automatically
marks the
box "This individual never married and had no children."  This also 
happens

with people I am adding as I am going through a cemetery.  I don't might
not have spouse info at that time but that doesn't mean they weren't
married.

Is there some sort of option I have to turn off to get the program to stop
doing this?

Re: [LegacyUG] BASIC Cleanup

[Colin Liddell]

So what you do is change the drive letter on your Pen drive to say "R" which 
should be a letter that would not normally be used when plugging in your Pen 
drive. That way when you plug it into different computers the drive letter 
will stay the same. QED.{;-)

If your two computers have a different number of drives, that could be the
cause of your problems with Legacy on a flash drive. It will have different
drive letters on different computers.

Hmmm, that was clear as mud...

Let me try again, the drive letter assigned to your flash drive may not be
the same on both computers. If that's so, then one computer may not know
where to look for your files.

Jenny Benson (or others):  I am disabled  and cannot get out a lot, but I
would be willing to join a newsgroup but I'm not  sure where or how to 
look:
something on networks might be nice, too.   I'm just not sure WHY 
everyting on
"Big Nina" (my office computer) vs. "my  lilnina" (my DELL laptop).  Big 
Nina is

SLOW and little Nina, I cannot be  networked correctly.  I'd like to use
Legacy Deluxe on both with my flash  drive, but it's not transferring 
correctly
and I'm still not comfortable with  the photos.  Computer ghru keeps get

Apart from ensuring that your system meets the minimum  requirements to
run the program, I don't think there is anything that is  specific to
Legacy.  General computer use and maintenance is off-topic  for this
list.  Have you considered joining a newsgroup or mailing list
specifically aimed at inexperienced computer users?  Or a good book or
an online training course is nothing is available to you in your area?

Good idea!  Only I'd find it hard to pick on just one feature:  I just 
love Legacy being so much superior to FTM, which a family member uses!

Re: [LegacyUG] How to show tags on family view

[Mary Fowler Leek]

Lucy,

On the menu bar:

Go to Options>Customize>General Tab and look down in the lower left hand 
corner. Tick the box "Enable Tagging" and you should see your three tag 
boxes on the family view. This is where you can also change the tag numbers 
that are being shown by clicking on "Tags to Show".

DUH, I must have brain fade or something.  Have looked all over and I was 
sure that I could have at least three tag boxes show on the family view, 
just above the husband and wife boxes.  Am I wrong ?
