RE: [LegacyUG] General Notes VS. Events
True, but then I don't source them. My Research Notes comprise comments from Events/Sources such as the example which I gave ie. Census 1861, marriages - perhaps a witness is a relative, deaths - maybe the name and relationship of the person who reported it. All of these are already sourced elsewhere, so I don't duplicate.

RE: [LegacyUG] Run time error '5'
When Legacy is installed the install log is created. It is also clear that some users find that they no longer have the log file in their system. The one thing which they all have in common is that they have correctly tried to uninstall Legacy using the Window's Add/Remove function and have not been successful. Why, I cannnot tell, but isn't it possible that the install log file is being stripped at this point?

Here is the sequence of what occurred: I downloaded 7.0.0.90. (Either shortly before or shortly after installing 7.0.0.90, I also installed Adobe Reader 9). Legacy seemed to work properly for several days, but I had not tried to print. When I tried to preview/print a report, Legacy froze and could only be shut down with Ctrl-Alt-Del and End Process. (No error message appeared). After trying several other things (deleting .usr files, etc.), I tried to uninstall Legacy. It appeared to uninstall, but I later discovered Legacy was still on my computer and operational (except for my print/preview problem). It was at this point that I discovered the install.log file was no longer on my system and I could not uninstall Legacy. The only way I could remove Legacy from my system was to delete it from the Registry. I then reinstalled, and it was at this point I got Error 339 when trying to print/preview. I fixed that by following the Legacy online instructions for downloading the affected .ocx files (vsprint8.ocx and vspdf8.ocx if I'm remembering correctly).

[LegacyUG] Print list of individuals by Surname
Hi, I'm doing a lot of searching through census, military, immigration records etc and continually have to refer to the Legacy Index to see if it's the right person... rather slow and tedious by going backwards and forwards. I have some 60 individuals that share the same surname. Is there a report or some way of extracting a list of individuals say G-K with other fields like RIN, Full Name, Birth Date, Death Date, Father, Mother (not just surname groups).

I was able to save and backup all my input. That said, the basic Error 508 problem has not been solved. It began with my upgrade from Norton 360 to Norton Premier 360. An [UNacceptable] work around is to disable Norton before backing up; then restoring it. A computer literate friend suggests that the upgrade may have left pieces in the registry that is causing a conflict. I'll be working with the friend and Norton as the days go by.

Re: [LegacyUG] General Notes VS. Events
I have also wondered about putting information into Events/Facts Notes vs General Notes (or, as Jenny mentioned, in Source Detail comments). As others have said various times, it depends on the purpose or goal. Who is the target? You? Others? Legacy is so flexible! One option is to put the information in more than one place. For some occasions you would include the General Notes for readability. For other occasions you might exclude the General Notes but include the Events/Facts with the sources. You can choose if you want the Detail Source Comments to print or not. Regarding sourcing General Notes. There was a suggestion earlier this year as to how to include multiple sources in General Notes. I don't remember what the subject was. I think the general idea was to put the author's name (Smith) after each different piece information so the source of that particular information could be easily found in the source list. If you choose to stay with Events/Facts, some have suggested a very simple sentence structure, with very little other than [Notes]. Then you can enter the information in the Event Notes exactly the way you want it to read. Just my thoughts.

I hardly ever even look at the Picture Centre, and attach my picutres, caption them, etc, from the Individual's screen or from the Multimedia tab on the Source Details screen, however I've been having a poke around and it just goes to confirm what I've always thought - that the Picture Centre is very confusing and difficult to negotiate! It seems to me that to see the Caption etc, you need to select the Individual in the Name pane, select the person or Event in the Attached Pictures pane at the bottom and make sure you have the Attached Pics tab selected. If you have a picture selected in the Picture Filename pane it will show on the Picture List tab, but its Caption, etc will NOT show. There does seem to be something odd with the U column. Nearly all my pictures are showing a -, which should mean that the attached version of the picture is in a different folder to the one which I am viewing. However, I am viewing C:\Legacy\Pictures and all my attached pictures (other than those attached to Sources) are in that folder and attached from there.

The install.log file was the ONLY Legacy file that the uninstall routine removed (or perhaps more correctly, the only obvious file that it removed; there may have been others I am unaware of, but none that affected the basic operation of the program). It didn't matter whether I tried to uninstall from Windows Add/Remove, or from the Legacy uninstall utility, install.log was removed. I know this because I retrieved the install.log file from Mozy and put it back in the Legacy folder after my first uninstall attempt from Add/Remove failed. I then tried again directly from the Legacy uninstall utility. Same result. The install.log file disappeared and I had to uninstall Legacy via registry edit.

For some occasions you would include the General Notes for readability. For other occasions you might exclude the General Notes but include the Events/Facts with the sources. You can choose if you want the Detail Source Comments to print or not. Regarding sourcing General Notes. There was a suggestion earlier this year as to how to include multiple sources in General Notes. I don't remember what the subject was. I think the general idea was to put the author's name (Smith) after each different piece information so the source of that particular information could be easily found in the source list. If you choose to stay with Events/Facts, some have suggested a very simple sentence structure, with very little other than [Notes]. Then you can enter the information in the Event Notes exactly the way you want it to read. Just my thoughts.

In those cases I add a line in the Source Detail Comments such as relates to date of birth or relates to name of second wife or whatever is appropriate.

Re: [LegacyUG] General Notes VS. Events
Bob wrote: What is the general concensus regarding where to put general information - Notes or Events? A lot of the items I put into events has written data to explain the event, but it is a bit awkward to have to refer to the event statement to read it. Should entries such as a census comment be placed in General Notes or as an event? If in the event field, the entry under the individual is pretty stark '...He was in the1870 Census...' or some similar feature. Likewise, if the obituary is entered as an event, the entry under the individual states '...He was buried...'. I would appreciate some input from others as to which place is most commonly uses to put general data like, birth, death, marriages, obituaries,etc. There have been a few discussions about this subject in the last year. You might want to read the following thread in the archives for more ideas: www.mail-archive.com/legacyusergroup@legacyfamilytree.com/msg31810.html Initially, I put most info beyond basic birth, marriage, death, burial events in Notes because, like you, I found the Event sentence issue too rigid and cumbersome. But as someone else has mentioned, it is difficult to source General Notes if you are using more than one source. You can have individually sourced, free flowing Notes if you use Events and change the sentence structure to [Notes] [Sources]. At this point, I'm using a hybrid of the two: if the individual is a direct ancestor or otherwise someone on whom I'm doing extensive research, I primarily use Events and change the sentence structure, usually to [Notes] [Sources]. I use Research Notes to jot down ideas regarding possible relationships, where I might want to look next, or thoughts about what conflicting evidence might mean. If I'm entering data on say, a 2nd cousin, twice removed (someone I don't plan to research in depth) and I have info beyond basic event data that I want to record, I use General Notes, not Events, with an brief embedded usually short reference to the source. Not totally kosher as far as source citation, but I cannot afford the time to do otherwise at this point.

[LegacyUG] Burial Address
Perhaps this has been discussed before, but alas . . . . I'm frustrated trying to determine where to document cemetery information. I've begun putting the Cemetery information in the Burial Address field. However, I cannot find a way to search using the Burial Address field.

Re: [LegacyUG] Burial Address
For much used cemeteries (my family-wise) I do like using the Burial Address because then I can pinpoint it with coordinates and photos. But you can do that by entering the cemetery in the Burial Place Field too. Entering the cemetery in the Burial Place Field doesn't mess with the Master Location List for me when I enter the name first, such as Rumford CemeteryWhen the cemetery is otherwise named, and I want to know if I have already entered that cemetery, I use the Sort of City, County, State, Country, and just change the Direction of Sort from Left to Right to Right to Left. The nice thing about Legacy is that you can do so many things in many different ways, that most users are content most of the time.

RE: [LegacyUG] Burial Address
Hi Dave, I have wrestled with this problem myself, I found that in local newspapers and in books on communities or in books on family lines that sometimes a particular cemetery can be called by two, three or more different versions of the same cemetery name. As an example: West Devon Cemetery; United Church Cemetery, West Devon; Presbyterian Church Cemetery, West Devon; etc. All refer to the same cemetery, and I had all three or more listed in my location list. Some times I would run across someone who had died and was buried in West Devon but I couldn't remember what the name of the cemetery was and I would spend a lot of time trying to locate the name in my location list. As well if I wanted to print out a report listing everyone who was buried in this cemetery, I'd have to look up all the different variations and tag each of them. The approach that I took to correct this and that places all cemeteries in the same place in the location list is to include the full name of the cemetery and put all cemeteries in the same format, this works great for me, it may not work for anyone else. I place my example above as follows: Cemetery: United Presbyterian Church, West Devon,,.,..., Canada. By using this format, all my cemeteries can now be located by typing in Cem, they are sorted alphabetically by the first letter in the word following the :.
