RE: [LegacyUG] Master Location List help
Thank you Brian, Yes the mapping started working again last night (10 Nov 2009) and is still working. It does appear that it was a problem on the BING end. Thank you for your assistance, Charles E.

Today the mapping seems to work as it should. I "think" the problem was on the BING end of the mapping. Charles, is mapping working for you now?

[LegacyUG] Location Mapping
I received the following reply from Legacy Technical Support regarding the Mapping issue; "This is a new issue, probably occasioned by a change at Microsoft Bing Maps (formerly Virtueal Earth). It was logged earlier today as issue number 0002956: "BING Interface No longer works to position map" and has a high priority for the programmers attention. The fix should apeear in a free update to the Legacy program. I don't not have a schedule for when that will happen. Please watch for it." Hope this helps to resolve some concerns.

[LegacyUG] Master Location List help
I have been cleaning up my Master Location list. Previously, when I selected a location the Map would automatically zoom to that location, with a Large Red push pin pointing to the Lat. And Long. For the location. For some reason that has stopped. When I select a location, the map remains static, regardless of the location, and the Large Red push pin has disappeared. How can I correct this? Just in case, I am using Legacy 7.0 Deluxe, on Windows XP Pro. And IE8.0 Thanks Charles Legacy User Group guidelines: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/Etiquette.asp Archived messages: http://www.mail-archive.com/legacyusergroup@legacyfamilytree.com/ Online technical support: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/Help.asp To unsubscribe: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/LegacyLists.asp
RE: [LegacyUG] Legacy vs. TMG
Hi Jackie, Welcome to the list. Yes, I switched from TMG 7 to Legacy 7.0 Deluxe, and I would definitely "NOT" switch back to TMG for a variety of reasons. I had been using TMG for about 15 years. Although it is a daunting task to clean up all the records, the finished product is well worth the effort. I would suggest asking yourself one question, and let the answer to that question dictate your actions. What is your Vision for the final outcome of all of your research? Finally a Quote from Stephen Covey "Keep the End in Mind." Hope this helps and good luck.

I used Legacy 4 and liked it. Then I switched to TMG because at that time I thought it was better. I took a look at Legacy 7 last night, and am thinking of switching back. Except for all the data entry work. I do realize I can import some, but there will still be cleanup work. Have any of you switched from TMG 7 to Legacy 7? And what are your thoughts?

[LegacyUG] SourceWriter output question
On some of the SourceWriter templates (for example the Family Group Sheet) the address is displayed as [ADDRESS FOR PRIVATE USE,] in formatting the output for Footnote/Endnotes and Bibliography. What controls this display, and where is it located? I have searched, and searched and can't find it.

RE: [LegacyUG] Converting Basic Sources to the SourceWriter
Thanks Richard for the instructions on converting sources with Access. And thanks to all other users that offered their helpful support. Us newbies need all the help we can get. Maybe someday (soon I hope)I will be able to return the assistance and help others in this User Group.

RE: [LegacyUG] Converting Basic Sources to the SourceWriter
Hi Richard, Thank you, Yes I have Access and I would appreciate the instructions. In the mean time I will check out ltools.

If not, the your best bet is with ltools. See: http://zippersoftware.com/ltools/index.htm You can download a free version with some basic tools or upgrade to deluxe for a small fee and get lots of tools to do things with your Legacy data that you can't do in Legacy. Source conversion with Access or ltools is very easy to do but it just adds the SR template which you have to fill in yourself. No use waiting forever for Legacy to add their own SourceWriter as there is absolutely no way they can produce a tool that will fill in the template for you with the conversion. -- Richard Van Wasshnova http://www.gencircles.com/users/vanwasshnova http://gw.geneanet.org/vanwasshnova On Fri, Oct 23, 2009 at 6:56 PM, Charles Apple wrote: > I have switched from TMG 7.0 to Legacy 7.0 Deluxe.

[LegacyUG] Converting Basic Sources to the SourceWriter
I have switched from TMG 7.0 to Legacy 7.0 Deluxe. Since I had to do an import via GEDCOM I am in the process of cleaning up 7,000 plus records. All of the Source's imported to the Basic Source System. Since the Source Conversion Tool has not been released yet, has anyone figured out the easiest way to convert sources in the Basic Source System to the SourceWriter? I read Geoff Rasmussen's article, dated 18 June 2008, in the archives referencing his method of manually converting Basic Source's to the SourceWriter. Since the article is more than a year old, I was just wondering if anyone has come up with an easier way. I apologize for bringing this up, I am sure it has been thorougly discussed before. That's one of the problems with being a Newbie.
