[LegacyUG] Printing Master Source List Names
Is there any way to print out a list of Master Source Names (with or without the full source citation)? I need to clean up/standardize how I have named my sources and having a piece of paper to look at would be nice, rather than having to do it all onscreen, but I'm stumped. I have the Source Citation Report Include Tab set to print only the Master Sources, _and_ I have the OptionsCustomizeSources set to Include Source List Name as part of source citation, but all I see on the Print Preview screen is the full source citation; no Master Source Name. Standard question: Am I missing something, or is it not possible? Thanks in advance!

Re: [LegacyUG] Printing Master Source List Names
Connie, I think I've found a way to print the list you want. I tried to print out the Master Source List by first going to Reports/Source Citation Listing and did not get exactly what I wanted. But the following worked for me. Go to View/Master Lists/Source. Once there, click on Options (on the right hand side of the screen) and choose Print. This will take you to the same Master Source Report. Click on All Sources (at the top) and Only Master Source (toward the bottom). This should print the name as shown in the Master Source List.

Re: [LegacyUG] Trouble loading Geo Location Database
Are you saying you installed GEO (or part of it at least), but now that Legacy 7.0.0.100 is out, you have either lost it or deleted it? Do you have your download for GEO? I believe you can re-install. That would be faster than re-downloading GEO again. Let us know.

[LegacyUG] Italics Coding Printing in Source List and Gedcom (was Printing Master Source List Names)
Now I have my Master Source List, but I noticed that the portion of the citations that are italicized are printing with the italics coding in the List style format. More importantly, when I create a gedcom, and open it in another program, my sources all have the italics coding hard wired, i..e.: \i Ancestry.com\i0 is what prints on List style format on a Source Citation Report, and is what gets rendered onscreen after creating a gedcom in Legacy and importing into another program. Is there a way to fix this short of search/replace in the entire gedcom? This looks to me like a bug that should be reported? (I'm not certain this is happening with my older Basic Style sources; it is definitely happening with my Sourcewriter sources).

RE: [LegacyUG] Gedcom problem uploading to Ancestry
You may encounter future problems uploading with any browsers. There have been security updates to both Firefox and IE and other browsers. You may want update your Firefox to at least the 3.0.13 version. Now IE 8.0 has many problems with rendering grouped objects and other graphics; hence, I would stick with a 7.x version of IE until Microsoft can work out their bugs -- and the bugs in their recent bug fix; which destroyed many peoples web pages they designed on their own computer. Anyway, all of these security updates are checking for certificates. You will have to check on making Ancestry a trusted site or other workarounds if it's a certificate issue. The warning pop-ups display and then disappear very fast. I would have all other windows minimized and then drag the window with Ancestry.com to the lower half of the page right before you submit the upload.

RE: [LegacyUG] Gedcom problem uploading to Ancestry
Valerie, As someone who tests web pages in Firefox, Opera, Chrome, Bing, Safari, IE6, IE7, and IE8 I would be grateful if you could identify the source for these revelations, which are totally new to me. I agree that there are some problems with IE8 but not the ones which you identify. I have not known a browser to, nor can I see how a browser can, destroy a web page. I would add that the only pages which do not present correctly in IE8 are those which are either, a) badly written eg. think it's still IE6, or b) use propriety coding. IE8 is the most standards compliant browser which MS has produced, although it still contains one or two of the well known, and easily avoidable, MS quirks. I still prefer Firefox for writing web pages, though. I would add that not only do I write my own coding, but I also use some of the Legacy codings as well and I have yet to have them destroyed by IE8.

Mike, I was simply listing a url where you can acquire FREE an update for the Geo -Code database. In response to Ron's comment that the geo-code database has never been updated. I have been using (the updates) for several years, and I have NO affiliation with the company or the product. If you would rather I simply state the name of the company and let listers search for it themselves, I would be glad to do that.

Ron, There are over 10,000 postings on the web if you just Google them; pick any one. This has been going on since February of this year. I know, I've been paid well for my support time. Microsoft's own Publisher Software, that many users utilize to create simple websites, is one of the main problems. Any grouped objects and many images do not render in the new IE8. Microsoft released a Service Pack 2 for the Office product; which in turn made them unable to open their files and in some cases severly corrupted the files. According to the Microsoft Support website, they are working on another emergency fix. While you may be someone well versed in web page design, a lot of individuals that are less experienced rely on packages like MS Publisher and other easy publishing tools to help them for their non profit organizations, church groups, etc.. because they don't have a lot of money to spend on a professional. One would think that the web pages would most likely not work in any other browser other than Internet Explorer 8.0; since it's from the same company. BUT NO -- MS tricked us again. These websites work in EVERY browser other than Microsoft's. How's that for irony.

There have been security updates to both Firefox and IE and other browsers. You may want update your Firefox to at least the 3.0.13 version. Now IE 8.0 has many problems with rendering grouped objects and other graphics; hence, I would stick with a 7.x version of IE until Microsoft can work out their bugs -- and the bugs in their recent bug fix; which destroyed many peoples web pages they designed on their own computer. Anyway, all of these security updates are checking for certificates. You will have to check on making Ancestry a trusted site or other workarounds if it's a certificate issue. The warning pop-ups display and then disappear very fast. I would have all other windows minimized and then drag the window with Ancestry.com to the lower half of the page right before you submit the upload. This way, you can see the windows error windows pop-up. Sometimes they are hidden behind your browser screen and the status bar does not contain anything for them.

RE: [LegacyUG] Gedcom problem uploading to Ancestry
Valerie, After reading your posting I did Google, and did not find one reference to IE8 damaging Web pages. Having now read your latest it would seem that the problem is not with IE8 but with either Office or the interface between Office and IE8. It is quite possible that MS did not upgrade their Office products to comply with the web standards now (largely) used by IE8. I have not tried grouped objects in IE8, but if you are referring to eg. grouped sprites similar to those used by Amazon, Apple and You Tube mainly for navbars, then again it must be the code generator which is causing the problem, otherwise those websites would not be usable in 75% of the browsers used today. This is really off topic and I only raised the question because I did not wish for those Legacy users who generate their pages using Legacy to have concerns about having IE8 and their web pages on the same machine, when there is not a problem in doing so.

Phil, I don't know who handles the legacy News etc, I think I did see it somewhere but didn't take too much notice. Are you sure it was Feed *BITZ* who contacted you, as Feed *BLITZ* is a well recognised company. I know nothing of the former, but from Who is, which gives the name of sites' owners it seems to have a bit of a chequered history.
