Re: [LegacyUG] PURPOSE OF USER-FORUMS ?

Mike is right - except (of course) when someone hijacks and idea and
it becomes a totally different topic.  GMAIL is free and keeps threads
together quite nicely!

Re: [LegacyUG] Question about mass cleanup of location

[GeoSci]

Ron,
  I just prefer the way Events come out in a report.  For this - I
named the event Cemetery (just start typing and it pops up in Event) ;
under Description I put the cemetery name : under date I put the date
of burial (at least year) : under Place I put the location
(City,County,State,USA for most of mine) and finally in Notes I put
the Plot and/or Find-A-Grave number.

Re: [LegacyUG] Computer Crash - Lost Legacy Program:

[GeoSci]

If you are truly starting from scratch - start with the latest version
would be my advice!  (NO backup?  Even an older one might get you
started!!  Check some old CDs (maybe)?  Good luck!!  Once running -
check out MOZY at least for your Legacy stuff!  2gb FREE and it works
- I have recovered several files recently.

Good luck!

Re: [LegacyUG] relationship

You need to reset relationships (really - update them).  Go to your

any others you have entered since last time you set relationships).

Re: [LegacyUG] pros/cons source conversion

[GeoSci]

I have changed ZERO of my sources to Sourcewriter - in fact I do not
use it.  I tried it several times but the way it came out in REPORTS
(nearly all of them) was very cumbersome and about twice the size of
my BASIC sources.  I had someone totally unfamiliar with any of this
look at my BASIC sources - and asked - "Could you find this source
with what is here?"  When the answer was yes - I was (and am)
satisfied that what I am doing is quite sufficient!

Re: [LegacyUG] Grave Transcriptions and Photo--Where?

[GeoSci]

Bill,

I use an EVENT called Cemetery.  That makes it easy to sort by a
particular cemetery - or Burial Place.  I also include the
Find-A-Grave ID# in the description - thus pointing to an image (or at
least a memorial).  I am certain others do it differently.  I just
like the freedom the an EVENT gives for reports, etc.

[LegacyUG] Search the Internet for Current Person

[GeoSci]

Has anyone come up with a successful string to search Find-A-Grave -
where the current person in Legacy is put into the search boxes on
Find-A-Grave search?  If so - may I please have the string so that I
can set up such a search!

Thanks

Re: [LegacyUG] Adding DOCUMENTS to an individuals record

[GeoSci]

I have MANY .pdf documents attached to persons in LEGACY and have no
problem at all - they open nearly instantly.  My default .pdf reader
is FoxIt (from the Firefox people).  All I have to do is go to the
PICTURES folder for an individual (Still think that is strange but it
works) and double click on the document.  Running XP-SP3.

Re: [LegacyUG] Printing Burial Notes?

[GeoSci]

I think the problem that is surfacing is there are things that one can
ENTER into LEGACY - that can not be printed in a form that is useful.
My example - is BURIAL NOTES - where I record Find-A-Grave ID #.
There is no way to simply print a list showing a person's name, Burial
location, and FIG # (Burial Notes).  NOT something THAT unusual - I do
not think so anyway!  If it were an option in the NAME LIST - PRINT
type report - that would be GREAT!

In short - If data can be entered - then it should be available to the
user - not just hidden within the program.

Anyone found a way to print Burial Notes?  Or - Burial Address?  They

Re: [LegacyUG] Burial Address

[GeoSci]

THANK YOU EVERYONE!  I have used parts of many of the suggestions and
made a list for each cemetery - now I know what to look for!  Also
discovered that I have made some errors and several locations were
duplicated - so I was able to correct and consolidate them (doesn't
that seem to always happen - try to do one thing and end up doing
10!).  Great list - Great Group (as always!)

Thanks again!

[LegacyUG] Burial Address

[GeoSci]

Anyone found a way to search for those with a particular burial
address?  (Recorded within the + following Burial Location which a
city-county-state-country type record)  I would like a list of all
buried in three cemeteries relatively close to each other so that I
might visit for photos - but I cannot remember which dozen or so
people are there (out of over 4700 in the data base).  Sure would be
handy to be able to do this.
Thanks

Re: [LegacyUG] GEDCOM Question

[GeoSci]

ON A COPY of your family file - UNLINK your Grandparents.  Then - just
send them a BACKUP of the modified file (no gedcom needed if they have
LEGACY).  Tell them to RESTORE the backup in their LEGACY program
(must be the same or newer version). The file will still include your
ancestors but they will not show up in family view since they are not
linked together.  You could delete them if you wanted to - but they
may want some of it later .

Should work!

(7.0.0.90).  But - on my XP desktop the build is 7.0.0.97?!?  Even did
a manual check - but it says I have the latest build at 90?   Very
strange - I updated the XP system via the Legacy Home TAB but cannot
update the VISTA system via the egacy Home Tab or even directly!!??

Does anyone have the direct link for the update?  I will try it that way!

Re: [LegacyUG] Legacy and MS Access

[GeoSci]

Has anyone found how to pen the file in the Database art of Open
Office?  Should work (it opens normal Access files).

Thanks

Re: [LegacyUG] Windows' 7

[GeoSci]

According to CNET - "When boxed copies of Windows 7 go on sale on
October 22..."  Anything you are getting before that is a pre-release
version.  I doubt they have tested it yet since the Windows 7 software
is still changing.  I would wait...

Re: [LegacyUG] Unable to copy scanned documents into Legacy "events" or "Notes"

[GeoSci]

Bill,
  Scan as a picture (jpg) and save wherever you want as a PICTURE in
Legacy.  They are readable - exactly like the original but can be
blown up for details.  And they can easily be printed.  I do it all
the time.  Simplest solution I have found!

Re: [LegacyUG] How to scan and copy a text record int Legacy "Events"

[GeoSci]

You can try the OCR - but my experience is not good.  I have MANY
documents saved as jpg and (if you leave them big enough) - you can
easily zoom to see the detail with no problems.  I still think that is
the best solution.

Re: [LegacyUG] How to scan and copy a text record int Legacy "Events"

[GeoSci]

I would suggest copying them as images (jpg) and save them as
pictures.  Works for me!

[LegacyUG] PDF from Descendant Book Report

[GeoSci]

Just produced a .pdf from the Descendant Book Report PREVIEW.
Everything it there - BUT IT IS BACKWARD??  That is to say the cover
sheet is the last page in the .pdf  The first page is the last part of
the Bibliography?  Anyone else with this problem?  Anyone with a
solution?
Thanks

That IS a big download - forgot about that since I am on cable and it

Re: [LegacyUG] Finding County for a Town/City in a State

[GeoSci]

It works - but in a strange way.  If you put into LEGACY - say a
baptism for 1702 in Annville, , Pennsylvania, USA and click on the
Globe - it will tell you Annville is in LEBANON COUNTY.  If you make
the location "correct" and try to save it - Legacy will tell you
Lebanon County did not exist in 1702.  By clicking on the county list
- it will tell you (at the bottom) that Lebanon County was formed from
parts of Lancaster and Dauphin Counties.  Certainly not the easiest
way to do it - but it does work.

If you are working in Pennsylvania -- this site is great!
http://www.familyhistory101.com/maps/pa_cf.html   Shows when each
county was formed and from what.

Re: [LegacyUG] Help with SourceWriter

My BASIC source for 1860 Census - Pennsylvania - Lancaster County -
looks like this.  I fill in the DETAILS section for each siting
(Enumeration District, Dwelling, Family, Roll, etc.).  Seems like more
than enough for me!

Pennsylvania, Lancaster County, 1860 US Census, Population Schedule

Re: [LegacyUG] Help with SourceWriter

[GeoSci]

I am probably in a minority - but I tried Source Writer - and gave it
up for my own BASIC sources.  Source Writer tends to print out in many
lines of information - I can usually get all of the info I need (in a
printout) - in 2 lines using BASIC format - and it meets the reasons
for sourcing - "to allow others to find and view the source to allow
verification".

Re: [LegacyUG] Geo locations

[GeoSci]

IN the USA - you have States - Counties - then it can get odd.  In the
East you have Townships and Boroughs - but within the townships you
often have Villages -- for example Maytown is  a village within East
Donegal Township, Lancaster County.  In Delaware - we have "hundreds"
- a leftover from colonial days - areas that (at the time) contained
100 families.  We have no townships.  Cities are usually separated
from the townships.  In the WEST - you can have sections using a
system of township and range numbers.

In short - the 4 system does not work as well as many think - even in
the US!  But is can be worked with...   I often list Township [Village
name], County, State, USA  or City (or borough), County, State, USA .

Re: [LegacyUG] Geo locations

[GeoSci]

Careful - there are other reasons for blanks in the middle - not just
because someone  "hasn't done his homework" or is "too lazy".   I have
several persons from (according to sources) a certain town in
Pennsylvania - but - even with Google - I cannot figure out the County
since the town exists in several different Counties.

Re: [LegacyUG] End of Line Ancestors

[GeoSci]

In my mind - it should NOT happen!  A user should have to fill in
SOMETHING in order to create an entry - not just accidentally click on
a space.  Legacy uses many single clicks to bring up all kinds o fneat
things - it should not make an entry!

Discovered 53 people with "Unknown/Unknown" parents!!!  I may have

Re: [LegacyUG] End of Line Ancestors

[GeoSci]

OK - that worked - BUT now  - How do I know if the same problem is
true of others in my database??  This was the way to FIND the End of
Line Ancestors - but this flaw in the program (magic parents that are
blank and blank) makes this search useless - RIGHT??

Can this be programmed out??  Parents that are blank and blank are
crazy (or Unknown and Unknown -- uness someone actually enters them
that way).  The Legacy Program should NOT be allowed to PRESUME - it
should reflect entered data ONLY.   SUPPORT???

Thanks

Will check for Unknown-Unknown - but I know there has been NO import

End-of-line ancestors. We all have them. We think about them. We study

Re: [LegacyUG] Geo locations

[GeoSci]

Just added an UNLINKED PERSON to test this for you... listed him as
born in Benton, , Illinois, USA -- and clicked on the GLOBE.  The GEO
LOCATIONS system listed "Benton, Franklin, Illinois, USA" as proper.
I double clicked on it - and changed the  Benton, , Illinois, USA to
Benton, Franklin, Illinois, USA and made the "SHORT" name  Benton, IL
and clicked save.

It now reads correctly - and - if I go to a map - shows it just east
of West City near I-57 Illinois.

Seems to work fine!

Re: [LegacyUG] WinZip and how to Restore

[GeoSci]

I do not believe you NEED WINZIP - anything since XP has a built-in
"UNZIPPER" program.  Second - you do NOT need to UNZIP to RESTORE.
The RESTORE a BACKUP - open LEGACY - Choose File - RESTORE.  It will
tell you it must stop LEGACY - that is OK.  Choose the BACKUP FILE you
want (if from your flash drive - choose that one) - and let the file
rebuild (takes very little time).  That should get you back into
things.

The Multimedia BACKUP - I must leave to someone else - I just back-up
the LEGACY FOLDERS for DOCS and PICTURES.  If I must restore them - I
just replace the ones in the LEGACY FOLDER with the back-ups.

Hope this helps...

Re: [LegacyUG] uploading changed web pages

[GeoSci]

Careful on this -- I have actually seen where file 26.htm was one
person -- but (after changes in my family file) was a totally
different person the next time!  So it may pay to replace all (or
delete all before uploading new).  Just based on my experiences!

Re: [LegacyUG] SourceWriter / Book COMPILED BY

[GeoSci]

Have been using LEGACY since late in V.5.  Had my sources all set up -
then Source Writer showed up.  Tried it several times - but result in
REPORTS (especially the Book and Other Reports) was 4-6 lines long.  I
can give enough detail for anyone to go back to my sources in less
that 2 lines in the BASIC SYSTEM of sources.  I remain there(actually
deleted the few I had done with Source Writer).  So Elizabeth is not
alone!

Re: [LegacyUG] Apple - Afraid to post

[GeoSci]

Why is everyone so worried about someone chewing you out - who cares.
Ignore them (this series is NOT a good idea - it just encourages the
foolish ones) - and they will go away.  I post with my real name and
Email.  If someone gets stupid off list I can easily block the email.
SO - let they yell - just ignore and they will quit when they have no
audience!

Lets get back to Legacy!

Gail,
   Just ignore those that cannot REQUESTa different way of doing
things and those that are rude.  That is what most of us do -
eventually they will either grow up - or stop posting (we hope).  Too
good a list to not use it!

Re: [LegacyUG] All the POSTS! how to organize? Delete?

[GeoSci]

Another alternative

If anyone wants a GMAIL account - I can send an invitation to you!
They give you 7282mb of on-line storage!  If you use the account for
LUG - it keep everything - all neatly organized for you (or you can
come up with your own labels).  The only strange thing I have found is
it does not show you your own posts! (If I send something to the group
- I never see it until someone answers it)  STRANGE but you can get
accustomed to it!

Re: Re: [LegacyUG] Without a doubt

Ibid works for me - but keep in mind - it will ONLY work if the source
directly above it in a list is EXACTLY the same (including detail).
That detail seems to be the thing that often does not allow it to work
when you think it should.

Re: [LegacyUG] Census vs Residence

[GeoSci]

I take a Census Event - and make it both a Residence EVent and (if
possible) an occupation event.  I then make the Census Event
"private".  Reports seem a lot "friendlier" showing where someone
lived and what they did rather than all of that other data that comes
with a census.  I use the Census as a source for the other two.

Just one way of doing it!

[LegacyUG] Someone

[GeoSci]

Ancestor Book Report - Why is the word "someone" being inserted into
ever marriage - it makes no sense!?!  "Julia married someone Nelson
Taylor".  Looked for wording option but could not find anything there.
 Any ideas? (Using latest update)

Thanks,
Keith

[LegacyUG] Why - on every update??

[GeoSci]

Updated to 7.0.81 and it seems fine - but I was wondering something.
When you start the install - it asks for a language.  BUT no matter
what you say - it still downloads and saves all the other languages?
As much as I would like to learn some of those languages - I doubt I
ever will.  Would it not make sense to just load the language chosen?
[Might be my hang-up - butthought I would ask!!]

Re: [LegacyUG] New Family Search

[GeoSci]

Eliz,
  This is a bit involved - but

  Very handy little feature - In Family View - highlight a person you
want to research - click INTERNET - Search Internet for current person
- now select the website you want to search (from the choices) and
click SEARCH.

  What I was asking was for a customized search string -- and Leon
came through!!  You can click Customized Searches (lower right) and
SELECT one of the searches that you want to REPLACE... On the next
screen - click ADD - Give your new site a name - and enter the
"customized Search String" - then click SAVE.  Finally click SELECT
and it will now show as a choice for the Internet Search.

   Leon's search string works quite well for the site!!

Keith

There many (small) files marked *.usr  Those are needed to

Re: [LegacyUG] What's new in 7.0.0.76 ?

[GeoSci]

===
New
===
LDS Ordinance markers - The {BEPSC} indicator is now also put on the
Husb and Wife names on the Family View (if this option is turned one).

Picture Center - When you attach pictures with embedded comments, you
are now asked if you would like to put them in the Description field
(consistent with what happens in the Picture Gallery). (832)

Potential Problems Window - Now has an option to globally look for
multiple names so that they can be put into the Alternate Names list.

RTF Source Citations - Add an option to use the old unlinked citation
endnotes. This is because the new "real" linked footnotes and endnotes
end up having lots of duplicates because there is no way to combine
them in RTF output.

SourceWriter (230 new templates)
  Ancestral File - added template
  Canada - added specific templates for 1851, 1861, 1871, 1881, 1891,
1901, 1906, 1911 censuses and the 1940 National Registration File
  Email - added a "Grouped by correspondent" template so the master
sources can be more generic if desired
  England - added specific templates for England and Wales
births/marriages/deaths
  Microfilm/fiche - added this medium to all source templates from
which it was missing from the models in Evidence Explained
  Online database - added this medium to all source templates from
which it was missing from the models in Evidence Explained
  Online images - added this medium to all source templates from which
it was missing from the models in Evidence Explained
  Pedigree Chart - added template
  Pedigree Resource File - added template
  Scotland -  added 35 new templates for the census records of Scotland
  U.S. - added online media for 1890 Union veterans/widows template


===
Changed
===
Default Marriage Wording - Added four new phrases to cover unknown
spouse sentence wording.  (2084)

Family Picture Trees - The fourth generation now includes the names
and life ranges (in a smaller font).

GEDCOM Export - GEDCOM export to anything destination other than
Legacy, will now convert the Q dates (Mar Q 1888) to a range like Jan
1888 - Mar 1888.

Help File - Various help topic updates

SourceWriter: added 45 new templates to cover all media for the
Canadian census records, including the 1940 National Registration

US County Verification - A few updates to the county verification
database were made.

===
Fixed
===
Age Calculator - Fixed a leap year problem.

Book Reports - Fixed a problem where the last page of footnotes for a
report would be on the first page of the next chapter when printing
from the Publishing Center.  (2094)

Book Reports - More duplicate footnote combining.  (2118)

Book Reports - More picture overwriting fixes.

Calendar Creator - Fixed default year reset.  (2096)

Chronology View - BC dates for background timelines were not
displaying in the correct order.  Fixed. (1324)

Custom labels on View and List: The defaults are reset when the
interface language is changed.

Custom Marriage Phrases - Increased the maximum length of the phrases
from 50 to 100 characters.

Date Calculator - Fixed some early year calculation problems.  (1713)

Dates - Corrected handling of pre-1000 years.

Descendant Book Footnotes - The footnote font would sometimes change
when a string of citation numbers went over a page break.  Fixed.
(2093)

Descendant Narrative report - Suppression of deceased spouses and
children of living individuals was not fully implemented.  Fixed.
(2098)

Descendant Report - Picture for person after a "Duplicate Line" was
not showing. Fixed.

Event Sentences - Sentences with in a double "The The" were resulting
in TThe when the two were combined.  Fixed. (1303)

Events on Reports - Date and Location underlines (for missing info)
are now suppressed when an event doesn't include fields for date or
location.

Family Group Record - Event descriptions were not honoring formatting
codes. Fixed (1202)

Family Group Record Reports - Attached Chronology reports had the
wrong name at the top.  Fixed.

Family Group Records and Individual Reports - Long dates (e.g. Between
12 Dec 1888 and 30 Oct 1889) for events were being truncated.  Fixed.

File ID Report - Wasn't showing the person's name for File IDs
connected to source citations, Never Married, and Had No Children.
Fixed.

Fixed error back-tabbing through source detail fields.

Fixed some problems in GEDCOM export customization.

GEDCOM Export - Source template info RTF codes were not being
converted to HTML codes when desired.  Fixed.

GEDCOM Import - Addresses for some events were being imported but not
being linked to the event.  Fixed. (1012)

reading the picture links.  Fixed.  (1150)

Help File - Lots of updating and correction.

Individual Report - Marriage address is now included when requested.

Individual Report - Name Index

Re: [LegacyUG] Multiusers

[GeoSci]

And yet another one called GENI at :   http://www.geni.com/   But
be sure you set it up so that you are satisfied by the privacy issues
- only family (already entered) can ACCESS it and make changes - BUT
(unless you say otherwise) anyone can VIEW it.  You CAN set it so that
it is private if you wish.

Re: [LegacyUG] Surname after divorce on reports

[GeoSci]

Discovered my problem after my post - SORRY!  I do always enter
females by their birth (maiden) name.  One of my AKAs was sneaking
into the picture and caught my eye - a close read showed that is was
marked correctly.

I would guess that I would have to use the AKA field for a legally
changed name too - ie)  My mother was married a second time - divorced
and wished to return to her previous husband's last name so that it
would again match her children and grandchildren.  The courts granted
this - so her death cert., etc. show the first married name rather
than the later one.  Confusing but workable with the AKA system.

Thanks
Keith

Re: [LegacyUG] Upgrading to Vers. 7.0

[GeoSci]

MANY of the problems are solved - even in the sourcing.  I believe
there will probably be an update before Christmas although that is
only my thinking.  Easiest install is to go to the LEGACY HOME tab
within the program and look to the right for the UPDATE.  It appears
to stall at about 27% complete - be patient - it will go on and
finish.

Enjoy

[LegacyUG] Surname after divorce on reports

[GeoSci]

Several in my files have gone through divorces - and returned to a
maiden name (or previous married name) - through the courts.  But
reports show the divorces surname since that was the last one that was
legal.  Any way to change the legal last name?  This would also apply
to a legal name change of any kind.

Ideas??

Re: [LegacyUG] Dates on Reports

[GeoSci]

Ah - I knew that -- but I only want the common usage format (June 26,
1926) in REPORTS -- I want input and program dates in the 26 Jun 1926
format on screen and within the program.  Looks like I have to
remember to change it before trying a report.  Can the two different
formats be used in the different areas?  If so - I cannot find it.

Thanks

[LegacyUG] Dates on Reports

[GeoSci]

I enter dates in the 26 Jun 1926 format - but would love to see them
printed in ALL reports as June 26, 1926.  I cannot seem to find such a
setting.  The June 26, 1926 seems much more ... friendly  - especially
here in the US.  Anyone know of a solution short of sentence override
for every event?

Thanks
Keith

[LegacyUG] SourceWriter vs BASIC

[GeoSci]

Thanks Robert and Ron -- I just tried putting a new source (Ohio
Deaths) using source writer.  The resulting source on an Individual
report was nearly 12 lines!  With a BASIC source - it is 2 and makes
much more sense.  I continue to be unconvinced about the necessity for
all of that data.  I believe what I use is enough for the original
purpose of a source -- that is helping other researchers to find my
reasons for the information I show.  I think this should be enough...

Ohio Department of Health, Ohio Deaths, 1908-1932, 1938-1944, and
1958-2002 [database on-line]. Provo, UT, USA: The Generations Network,
Inc., 2006. (Ohio Department of Health. Index to Annual Deaths,
1958-2002. Ohio Department of Health, State Vital Statistics Unit,
Columbus, OH, USA.) - Ancestry.com


In short - Is the SourceWriter format the best one???   I do not think it is

My question - It has been reported that MIXING Basic and Source Writer
Sources results in strange results in REPORTS.  There have been many

Re: [LegacyUG] Re: Where is file stored?

[GeoSci]

This should work - BUT only if you actually INSTALL the program on the
new machine.  You could then simply copy the files and replace the
ones put there by the INSTALL.  You must install on the new machine to
get the registry, etc up-to-date.  Be sure both are the same version
of the program (what you have on old machine and what you install on
the new).

Sure - bring up the person in the NAME LIST - find the TAG and double click

Re: [LegacyUG] Census records: Master Source v. Detail Source

[GeoSci]

I am waiting - too many problems with the mixed BASIC and SOURCEWRITER
sources when it comes to reports.  Once that is resolved - I may switch.
But my system does what sources should do -- gives anyone looking at them
all they need to see what I saw to prove a fact.  What more do you need???
And - who says the SourceWriter system is "Correct"??

My opinion,

Re: [LegacyUG] Census records: Master Source v. Detail Source

[GeoSci]

My sources are much like Michele's - except I put the State FIRST  (Georgia
US Census - 1880 - McDuffie Co) so that - when I look at my sources -
everything from Georgia will be together (Marriage records would be Georgia
- Marriage).  Works for me!

Re: [LegacyUG] Transferring to new computer

[GeoSci]

No matter WHAT is in the Backup-Restoree process - it sound sto me like that
would do it.  Some duplication perhaps - but it should work.  When Legacy is
running - click the tab called "Legacy Home" - to the right it should tell
you if there is an UPDATE available for LEGACY6.

We all keep learning from each other - sorry if it caused too much
confusion.
