[LegacyUG] Death location
Wow, so many great stories. We should put them in the notes section. My Dad had Alzheimer's and loved to go for a ride every day. My Mom took care of him till the last month. When he was cremated she put the box with the spare tire under the back floor of the station wagon. He is still there 2 years later, waiting for my Mom. I will get to put ashes where they wanted and a stone in a 100 yr old family plot with extra room.

[LegacyUG] Passage Express
Can anyone clarify for me the recent discussion of Passage Express. I downloaded the program when it was first offered. If I'm understanding correctly, I can make or link a file to Passage Express, create a CD and send it to a family member and they will be able to view the material without having Legacy installed on their computer?

Re: [LegacyUG] Relationship designation
Hi Jim, I used to use Reunion when I had a Mac, they had an option on their report menu so that you could first select the relationship of a particular person to all others in the file. Once done, when you printed your family group sheets they would come out John Jones 2nd Gr.Grandfather etc. in addition to the RIN and MRIN #'s. It eliminated the need to go to an indexed report of relationships to find out how that person is related to you. Extremely convenient and ultimately making memorizing your 8th Gr Grandparents names easier as you see it each time you're working on the file. Hope this clarification helps and sooo glad to hear it wil be available in the new version Leslie - Original Message - From: Jim Keener To: LegacyUserGroup@legacyfamilytree.com Sent: Sunday, December 09, 2007 1:18 PM Subject: Re: [LegacyUG] Relationship designation Would someone elaborate on what exactly Leslie is talking about.

Re: [LegacyUG] Error 2147024882
Gwen, The problem with W98 is the memory that is used to keep track of running applications like Legacy Family Tree. This is a fixed amount of memory that is not affected my the amount of RAM your computer has. It can not be changed. The information stored there is dynamic in nature so when an application (or part of an application) closes down, memory used by that application should be released. If it isn't, eventually you run out of system resources. My experience has been that version 6 apparently has problems with releasing used resources when moving from one part of the application to another. This even happens when using the same features I used in version 5. So it doesn't seem to be associated with the new features of version 6. Since I run a dual boot system (meaning I also have XP on the same computer) if I need to, I just reboot into XP to finish my task at hand. (For those of you who are interested, I access the same data file from W98 and XP). Gwen, what I suggest is that you do is what I have done. Microsoft has provided a handy resource monitoring application called the Resource Meter. When running, it resides in the system tray down by the clock. You should be able to find Resource Meter by going to Start - Programs - Accessories - System Tools. If it isn't there, you can create a shortcut on your desktop by right clicking on the file name and selecting send to and then desktop (short cut). The file name is RSRCMTR.EXE and is located in the C:\Windows folder. I have the application start up when booting my computer because I put the shortcut in the Startup folder. When Resource Meter is running, you will get a warning message when the resources get low. You might be able shut down other applications that are running at the time to free up resource memory that Legacy Family Tree needs. Or, exit Family Tree and reboot your computer to create the most free resource memory. For further reading, see: http://www.informationweek.com/story/showArticle.jhtml?articleID=17200581 I believe there must me a memory leak that needs to be fixed by the programmers. Using the same features in version 6 that were used in version 5 and running into memory resource problems would seem to indicate that something changed with how memory resources are now being used in version 6. I don't believe you should have to upgrade to XP to solve this problem. I also believe that there are a lot of Legacy uses that wouldn't have a clue as to how to upgrade to XP especially if they are senior citizens like me. I don't think Legacy wants to force these people to upgrade to XP. It could be a costly mistake if they ended up loosing some of their files from other applications in the process. I hope this helps you Gwen (and maybe others running W98) to at least monitor the memory usage and to determine the applications that may be using a lot of resource memory. I would be suspicious of any of the Norton applications that may be running.

I doubt if there is anything the user can do to eliminate this problem - only the Legacy programmers can fix this. Les -- No virus found in this outgoing message. Checked by AVG Free Edition.
