Re: [LegacyUG] Master Location List help
2009/11/10 Charles Apple apple1...@embarqmail.com: 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.

Re: RE: [LegacyUG] Installing (2nd) Legacy on laptop for travel - Dropbox
Has anyone any experience using Dropbox so that each computer is automatically updated with the new data? If yes, can you please give me the Dummy's version of the step-by-step process to have my Legacy Family Tree program on both of my computers using Dropbox. Or, if Dropbox isn't a good choice, please let me know before I try it. Hi Donna I have used Dropbox and it worked fairly well, BUT I found that 3 out of five times I started Legacy it would come up with a fault and close. When I restarted it was ok. I now use a smart drive. I bought a four Gig Sandisk drive and have my database and photos on it. That way it doesn't matter weather I am using the desktop or laptop I always have an up to date database. When I finish I backup to the computer I was using that way I always have a current backup.

Re: [LegacyUG] Personal Knowledge vs. Interview?
Anyone have a thought on when to use Personal Knowledge and when to use Interview? My parents, aunts and uncles told me a lot of information about their large family (Mom, Dad and 10 children who all lived well into adulthood). I did not write a transcript of the discussions but did enter them into my genealogy software. Hi Cathy I use personal Knowledge as follows I create a source for each individual whom gives me informal verbal information. In the source I name the Individual who gave me the information. In the citation detail I put, Principles Mother or whatever, principle being who the information is about. I feel an Interview is either a written question and answer session, or a taped interview. Hope this makes sense and helps. -- Regards, L.E.S.

RE: [LegacyUG] Double-checking: Naming documents and using File ID numbers
How about if the person gets married a 2nd or 3rd time and gets new MRINs? Do you then put any new documents into the new file? When the new marriage is created I create a new file and just carry on with any certificates or what ever going into the new file. Some thing else I do that Geoff doesn't. I put the MRIN number into the User ID box. When John Doe marries his MRIN may be 173 so I put 0173 in his User ID Now when he marries again his new MRIN is 205 so in his User ID will now be 0173/0205 but his new wife will only have 0205 in her User ID unless she has been previously married.

Re: [LegacyUG] Picture Centre
Thanks Jenny Maybe the following may explain what I am trying to say. I'm not quite sure why you say the picture ... has no caption and then you say the attached copy Have you got several copies of the same picture? If so, see the last sentence below. On the right hand top of the picture centre there is a tab marked Picture List and a tab marked Attached Pics. I entered captions etc in the Picture List and attach the picture to a person in the Name list I then click on the Attached Pics list and the caption etc is in place. When I open the Picture centre the next day and look in the Picture List no pictures have captions etc. According to Help the captions should be there. Caption, Date, Description, File ID # You can enter caption, date and description information before assigning a picture to an individual. There is also a field for a File ID # if you are assigning these numbers to your pictures. These entries are remembered by Legacy for future use even if the picture has not been assigned to anyone yet.

[LegacyUG] Entering custody of a child
Hello, LegacyUserGroup Listers I have an interesting problem and I would apreciate any help. My daughter has custody of a child as a favour to the Family Court of Australia, he is not related to her in any way. He has been with her since March this year (2007) and we do not know if and when he will go back to his mother, again no relation to my daughter. The child was stepson to my son in a now broken up defacto relationship. My question is this, has anybody any suggestions on documenting this child in her family. I know this is not strictly genealogy but it is Family History. Thanks in anticipation Laurence E Stephenson, [EMAIL PROTECTED] 29-07-07 Laurence E Stephenson.vcf Description: Binary data

However you can change the beginning status of the relationship to Partners and each person is now a partner I have been debating as to upgrade to the latest FTM (currently have version 10) or to get Legacy, Roots Magic, or The Master Genealogist (TMG).
