Re: [LegacyUG] I lost my tags AGAIN

2009-10-09 Thread D MG
Michele,

Just a thought.  You wouldn't happen to have 2 Legacy files in
separate locations on your computer?  That might account for the tags
going missing, as you may have tagged them on another copy of your
database.

Regards,

Dermot.

 I had tagged everyone in my file on #1 that was set as living.  I spent two 
 hours going through there killing off people that are long since dead.  I 
 still had 2000 people left to do.  This morning I crank up Legacy and my tags 
 had been cleared.  I can promise you that I didn't clear them.

 I can't just retag the people because a lot were really still alive and I 
 would have to review them all again.  This had happened about 6 times now. 
 Most of the time my tags stay put but every once in a while Legacy will clear 
 them for no reason.

 Please see my comment in response to Dennis - an INDICES over here
 is used as a superscripted number referencing another place, or a
 power to which a number may be raised. x squared would have an
 indices of 2. The superscripted number referencing a source is an
 indices.

Re: [LegacyUG] Legacy8 - WARNING!

Sherry,

Thanks for getting rid of that trouble-maker!

Looking back through my old legacy e-mails (and given that hindsight
is always 20-20 vision) we should all have guessed that anything from
this e-mail address would be suspect.  The only times this e-mail
address came up it was giving out an early link to Legacy7 in May
2008, and then later regarding rumours about an upcoming V8 in October
2008 (!)

Regards,

Dermot.

 I downloaded it, but didn't install.  Should I delete?  Very strange that
 there's isn't anything on the website about a version 8.

Re: [LegacyUG] Surnames With Mc Standard?

2009-09-14 Thread D MG
Holand,

As someone with a Mc surname, I obviously have thoughts on this.

I always write my name McGlone, but my dad often writes his as Mc
Glone, and just as often McGlone (my grandfather was registered on his
baptismal cert as Maglone, but that's another matter)!

There's no definitive standard that I'm aware of, and I believe it
really depends on the individual.  Just one other thing to be aware
of, though.  There are many Irish names (which is what I'm mostly
concerned with) which can be spelt in any of 3 ways, e.g, McGuire, Mc
Guire and Maguire are all different ways of writing the same name.
Someone who has a surname with Mc at the beginning could often write
it either way, but would rarely write it as Maguire, and vice versa.

One other thing, which is probably unrelated, relates to
alphabetisation.  In the Irish phone book (and this is usually the
same in other aspects of Irish life) all Mc/Mac/Mc  surnames are
treated as if they are spelt Mac, and are placed between Mab and Mad
in alphabetical order.

Hope this doesn't confuse too much!

Regards,

Dermot McGlone.

2009/9/11  howlanddavi...@aol.com:
 Mary  Ron:

 It looks like I have some work to do.  Our local genealogical group
 (Summit County, Ohio, USA) has put together an Excel spreadsheet of all
 known veterans buried in Summit County cemeteries.  I took on the task of
 keeping it up-to-date and going through all of the entries make sure that
 there was consistency.  One big question in my mind were the names with Mc.
 I decided, silly me, that if the name, as recorded, had a capital letter
 after the Mc that I would separate the Mc but if the letter was a small
 letter I would not (i.e., Mc Donald or Mcdonald).  From what you are saying,
 there should be no space no matter whether capital or not.
 By the way, there are 63, 800+ names listed presently; not all with Mc
 in them obviously.  There are one British Army veteran and four Canadian
 Armed Forces veterans along with veterans from Italy and Russia.

 Howland Davis
