[LegacyUG] Problem with font settings
Greetings!, I can't get Legacy to obey the font settings I have selected for my Family Group Sheets. I am using Courier New, 10, bold, as the settings for my Data, Notes and Sources in the fonts sections of my Family Group Sheets. All the other sections work fine except for the Data part of the report. Legacy will not adhere to the "Bold" setting for "Data" it ignores it! Is this a bug? Or is it supposed to be like that? Does anyone know of a way around this? I have to use the bold setting as the Courier New font is to light and I prefer the font to be a little darker. Thank you for you help.

Re: [LegacyUG] Descendant Book Display Irritation
Hi Jenny and Ron, I am glad you have both been able to replicate the problem in the Descendant Book whereby the first line of the main (direct line) individuals is unnecessarily shortened by Legacy.At the outset I thought it may have been something I was doing and not the fault of the program.As Jenny has pointed out it would appear that the program is incorrectly limiting the first line to a reduced number of characters. Ron, I believe you are right in saying that it affects the first line of each new generation but it wasn't very obvious in mine until the 4th generation and, as I mentioned in an earlier email, only when one elects to check off (include) 'Show line back to starting person'. Having now confirmed that this is a weakness in the program, what is required to have to problem corrected? Thank you both for you helping me with this. It's greatly appreciated, especially as I see you spending so much of your time assisting so many of us.

Re: [LegacyUG] Descendant Book Display Irritation
Hello Dennis, I did as you suggested, as I do happen to have another printer, but unfortunately it did not resolve the problem.I even tried reverting back to the default fonts without favourable results, as the first line for the main (direct line) individuals are still being cut well short of the margin and dropping the balance of the sentence to the second line. What I find particularly puzzling is I have no control over the structure of the sentence except for including or excluding the individuals relationship line back to the starting person.It is when I elect to include that bracketed relationship that the problem occurs and becomes magnified commencing with the third, fourth, fifth, etc. generations.

Re: [LegacyUG] Descendant Book Display Irritation
Hello Ron, Thank you for replying so quickly. I am using the identical format you have laid out and am seeing the problem on the Preview screen but it also carries over when I save to PDF.I do have sources for all my entries but suppressed the viewing of them so when I extracted the examples from the PDF the source numbers wouldn't cloud my examples with more superscript numbers. Also I am not inserting lines where names are missing.In the example I did not start a new generation on a new page but even when I do the same situation exists. I should also point out that it happens whether I run the book from the Publising Centre or direct from the Report menu>All Reports (Books and Others)>Descendants. As I mentioned in my previous email, the problem appears to become more pronounced when viewing the fourth and fifth generations or thereafter but always only on the first line for main entry individuals. Also as I pointed out, the problem only happens when I elect to have the book reflect the relationship of the individual to previous generations. That is, when I check the box 'Show line back to starting person'. Thanks again for your interest in helping me to resolve this. P.S. I'm sorry for not sending my initial email in Plain Text but when I tried my examples which I pasted from the PDF got all messed up.

I have selected the Modified Register Report for the Descendant Book Report (not the Narrative). Additionally I am using Individuals with Children (Standard Format). I am also only looking at the Preview, is this where you are looking or are your referring to a print or some other format? Are you starting each generation on a new page? You are clearly showing sources, so how are you displaying them, oh, and are you inserting lines where names are missing? I am very uncertain as to whether it will be possible for us to reproduce this, if it is dependant on a specific combination of settings - unless we are lucky. Sorry that I seem to be so pessimistic, but without being able to reproduce it I have little to suggest.

However, even with all the extra people that we hired to help we have been totally overwhelmed. We have had very successful releases in the past and so we thought we knew what was coming. Boy did we underestimate things by a long, long ways. In the first 48 hours we have had 10 times more orders than with any other release. We have had a couple sales days that blow away anything we could have ever dreamed of. We have so many orders that we can't even process them. Things are fairly automated and can usually be done very quickly but we have so many orders coming in that they are staking up everywhere. We have never seen anything like this before in our company's 25+ years of being in business. We have several people working the phones and several doing email all day long (literally 24 hours a day). All we can say is THANK YOU!!! Thanks to all of you for your purchases you have made! We really hope each of you enjoy the new features we have worked so hard to add to Legacy. You deserve the best and we hope we can continue to earn your support for many years to come. Last night and this morning I was working on scrounging up computers from everywhere I could find them and working on getting them added to our network and ordering system so we could add additional people to help out right now with all the extra orders. We hate to ask but if you don't have your order yet if you could be patient for a couple more days before calling that might help us get things done a little quicker because we can have people working on getting the orders out instead of individually answering phone calls and emails. Thanks for helping us experience such an overwhelmingly successful release of Legacy 7.0. All of you are so awesome with all you are doing to help each other out. Keep up the good work and we'll work hard to get your orders out to you quickly. Wow! I had better get back to work :) Thank you!

Re: [LegacyUG] Legacy 6 and Legacy 7
The first install is considered a new install and you are asked where you want to install to. Any future installs know where you first installed to and is considered an update to that Legacy. To move Legacy you cannot simply copy things from one folder or drive over to a new location. If you try to simply move the files the next update will still go back to the original locatin. There is a small trick that you can override the way the setup works if you need to move Legacy. It's simple. Download the Legacy setup once again from our website and save it to your computer somewhere for example your desktop. Then rename the setup you just downloaded to the name of LegacyNew.exe and then run it. When the setup starts it checks it's own name and if it's called LegacyNew.exe it will run as if it was a new install and you will be prompted where you want to install to.

Re: [LegacyUG] Installing version 7
It's just simpler for the average person.Since v7 converts your family files the only way to keep v6 on your computer and to also have v7 would be you now have to copy family files to new locations. For example you would have to copy family files from C:\Legacy\Data (v6 files) to C:\Legacy7\Data (v7 files). If you have pictures in C:\Legacy\Pictures the v7 files will still work. But, a few months from now when you want to get rid of v6 from your computer because you never user it any longer you will not be able to remove the v6 folder because it still contains the pictures. Of course you can move the pictures, video files, sound files, and other data type items like these over to your v7 folders. But, now that they are moved you now have to go into Options, Customize, Locations tab, and click the view Current List of Multimedia Locations" button and form this screen start changing each of the folders from the old location to the new location. Or, get tricky and do a global Search and Replace on PicturePaths. Most of the user settings will be retained and a normal user of Legacy simply installs it and continues to work on famiy history. They don't have to re-setup everything to their liking. I guess it's just several small things that for probably a lot of people on this list installing to a new folder would be a piece of cake but for many users who are not very famiiar with computers and getting around software I feel it is easier for them to just install right over 6.0 which is where it will default to. I simply recommended users install over 6.0 which from our point of view simplifies tech support calls. The end user only have one copy of Legacy. Legacy was designed to be installed over the previous version and simply work. If you know how to work with files and are pretty good working with Legacy go ahead and install to a separate folder as it's really not that big of deal and you will be able to quickly figure out any small thing that needs to be done. Either way is fine with me, you choose.

Re: [LegacyUG] Not fair Millennia!
All it takes is for Millennia to put the program on an ftp server and add a single download link on their website. That's true if all we were placing up there was the Standard Edition but what fun would that be if you couldn't play with all the cool new Deluxe Edition features. Also, we would kind of like to sell the Deluxe Edition and make it available at the same time as the Standard Edition and we have a bunch of work to re-vamp our website, redo our online store, finish up the training videos, get CDs, work on press releases, compile mailing list to send out the announcements (so it's fair) and work on our ordering system to support the new products, customer numbers, email lists, etc. Those who purchase in last 10 months have already paid for Legacy 7.0 Deluxe and really deserve to have it first. We want to get Legacy ready and available to everyone just as much as you want it. I have just put in about 20 hours of work and am headed to bed for a couple hours before I get up and do another 20 hour day. We are working hard to get it out to all of you. Please, it's coming.

[LegacyUG] v7 release
Hi Legacy Users, The software is mostly ready. We are trying hard to finish a couple items and fix a few problems. Because we are working so hard on Legacy right now we haven't had time to work on the required website changes that would be needed for a pre-release for all of you on the LegacyUserGroup list. We value all of you on this list and feel you are our most loyal users and we really do know and understand how much all of you do on this list with helping other users who are out there. We thank you all for all that you do. We are working hard to get things ready and the coming release is mostly just working out the logistics of such a huge release.We have had to hire a bunch of extra people to help with all the shipping and we are going to roll things out in the best order that we can handle and support. We know all of you on this list are very anxious and it won't be much longer. The pre-release this week at NGS was kind of a no-brainer. We simply take some product to the show and sell it. It doesn't require any work on websites, online store, backend ordering system, mailing lists, press releases, training videos and many other things that take a lot of time and have nothing to do with the software being ready. Early next week we will begin shipping Legacy to all of those who have purchased Legacy over the last 10 months. These are those we promised that if they would buy v6 they would get a free v7 when released. These people have already paid for v7.The numbers for those who will be mailed a free v7 are huge and just this project and is going to take some time. We have felt these users really should be the first to get Legacy and once all of these have been shipped we plan to go live with v7 on our website. We are very excited about the new features and feel this is going to be a great release.

[LegacyUG] Backup problem fixed
Greetings! There is definitely a problem with the latest Legacy update (6.0.0.188). I have been trying all afternoon to get Legacy to create backup family files without success. No matter what I tried Legacy just would not make any *.zip backup files. There are no error messages to warn you that Legacy has failed to create a backup of your files.

I eventually installed an older version of Legacy (6.0.0.0) over the new one and the backup problem was immediately rectified. However, the general information screen showed that I was still on version 6.0.0.188 and that I was still using the latest update. There's something funny going on here!! Shouldn't the general information screen tell me that I was using the older version and not the newer one? I'll leave this one for the experts to figure out.

[LegacyUG] Family File Backups Not working
Greetings, I have just completed updating Legacy to the latest version. Now I have discoverd that I can no longer backup my family files. Legacy indicates that it is saving my files to C:\Legacy\Data. However, when I look in that directory my backup files are not there. The same thing happens when I try to backup to an external hard drive - there is no backup file to be found. I tried the computer's search function to see if I could locate the backup file. The search functions locates a shortcut to the file but when I click on the file to open it I get an error message which says that the file can't be found. I tried using Legacy's file repair tool but that didn't fix the problem. I now find myself in the position where I can't make backup of my family files. Has anyone else encountered this problem.

[LegacyUG] Altered RINs don't sort
Greetings, I have a problem when trying to sort by RINs on the View screen. I switched the numbering for several individuals via the Renumbering RINs dialog box within the Tools menu.For example, I changed the RIN for Lilian from 35 to 4 and the RIN for Graham from 4 to 35.All changes appear okay but when I sort on the RIN numbers the ones I changed still fall in the old position. That is, Lilian (RIN 4) falls in the 35th position, etc. even though it shows as number 4.The ones I changed are the only ones out of sequence.I should mention, before making these half dozen changes all RINs were automatically assigned when I converted to Legacy about six months ago. Does anyone know what I may have done wrong?

RE: [LegacyUG] Problem with Descendant Chart - Cremation label not showing up
Greetings! My Descendant Chart is located in Reports>Descendant Chart. In mine, Report Options>Include Tab everything is greyed out except marriage date and place, include spouse's parents, RINs & MRINs and user ID. Cremations are set in the user screens but they still show up as burials in the descendant report. The descendant chart does not acurately reflect the cremation field labels in the report.

That would be a bug and I haven't seen it - which doesn't mean it isn't there. Which report? When I enter a Between date I get: Ebenezer was born between 1803 and 1806 in ... If you enter a date as bet 1803-1806 the entry changes to between 1803 and 1806 and that is what is used in sentences. If you enter 1803-1806 it is picked as from 1803 to 1806 in sentences. Or you can enter the "from" in the date field - from/to is allowed as is between/and You can use "or" - it doesn't give a bad date warning - but it doesn't read as well in sentences: "Ebenezer was born 1803 or 1804." instead of "Ebenezer was born in 1803 or 1804." That may be a difference in the way English is used in various countries. I don't think there is a way around the problem of the way the life range shows if you've used a between or from date for a birth.

Re: [LegacyUG] Surname formatting part II - SOLUTION
Hi all, I also just recently transferred over to Legacy from FTM but had no problem at all with AKAs.They were all slotted in the right spot following importation through GEDCOM.Perhaps you didn't have the AKAs recorded in the right place in FTM. They should have been placed in the Lineage / Adopt section as there was a specific spot for AKAs (nicknames) in that section. As far as where to place them in Legacy, I believe if you bring up the Family image page you will find a display of icons just below the persons name. Select the one with 3 heads. Hope this helps.

Re: [LegacyUG] Baptism event to Christening field
Hi Cathy, Thank you for your helpful reply. It set me on the right path and allowed me to switch all of my Family Tree Maker baptism events to the Christening field in Legacy. As I prefer to use the word baptism, I then relabelled the Christening field in Legacy to read Baptism per your instruction. To accomplish the above, it was necessary for me to import my data from FTM Gedcom once again, using the Customise option provided during the importation process as you suggested. This approach not only allowed me to switch all baptism events to christening so they would fall into Legacy's preferred field, but it also allowed me to determine how place names and descriptions should be handled under Legacy for FTM events such as Residences, Occupations, Funerals, etc.Family Tree Maker used the event Location / Comment field for both addresses and descriptions depending upon the event so, I assume without using the customise Gedcom feature during importation, Legacy would have dumped both event narrations and place names into the same field and treated all the same for reporting, etc. Cathy, my file of approximately 2,000+ individuals is not that large compared to many but it sure would have taken me an awful long time to resolve these issues without your kind assistance.

You may need to import your FTM Gedcom again and choose to customise so you can map the Baptism to Christening if it is being imported as a separate event or you may find that changing the term in Options > Customise is enough to get it to import into the right place. BUT you mention the Description field. The main Baptism/Christening fields don't include a Description field so you would lose this.

This is the full setup for build 6.0.0.118. http://www.legacyeesti.com/Ken/Legacy6Setup.exe Thanks Ken McGinnis Millennia Corporation [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com We are changing the world of genealogy! - Original Message - From: " La Nell Shores" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: Sent: Friday, December 08, 2006 3:34 PM Subject: RE: [LegacyUG] Legacy Download of v6.0.0.118 - server problems Keith, Did you download 118 OK? 117 Downloaded OK, 118 is the problem. I couldn't download from within Legacy or from the website. I'm in a pickle. I'm teaching Legacy for 3 hour tomorrow morning at our Computer Club. I have 117 on my computer and 110 on the laptop that I will use for the demonstration. I would like to download the laptop to 117 but it doesn't seem to be available. My husband and I have an ulcer between us trying to get everything together for tomorrow. I hope this problem is fixed soon! I may be up all night as it is. Our Christmas Musical is at church tonight and we're singing. By the way, I love the new coloring for the pedigree chart and the numbering is fixed on the Publishing center...which is what I was waiting on. La Nell Subject: RE: [LegacyUG] Legacy Download of v6.0.0.118 - server problems I think there is a good chance this is just due to the volume of people hitting the server at the same time. I'm in UK and downloaded early the morning of the 7th and the speed was more than acceptable. Regards Keith Bage *** Give the gift of Legacy for the holidays!

[LegacyUG] Server update
I thought our server company was going to send one more email out before they actually moved our sever to their new data center but I didn't get one and then it was to late to tell everyone what was going on. Our sever company is really growing. They moved to a brand new building which is adding enough room that they can add over 1000 new severs. I am glad they are doing well and I hope the new data center will keep our bandwidth fast. The move was supposed to go a lot better than it did. I think almost everything is now working.

The error that appears says that the download is corrupt. I am hesitant to run directly from the Internet since Legacy is not codesigning their .exe file for security. However, since my existing installation of Legacy is now blocked due to the faulty download I tried anyways and received an error about a missing wise...dll. Looks like the upgate needed a little more beta testing.

Re: [LegacyUG] Status?
I made some changes this morning and it looks like some of you are receiving mail again. Because of all the problems and not knowing how to fix them we ordered a new mail server that will be setup early next week. At this point I see some are getting email but I have no way of knowing how many are not getting messages from us. This has been very frustrating for us and I know all of you are tired of the problems. Thank you all for your patience while we try to solve all the problems.
