[LegacyUG] Error: entering new location
I'm using version 7 with all updates on vista64. Everything has been working fine but I have just noticed that when I enter or change a location I get an error. If I use an existing location there is no problem. However, if I enter a new location in the born or died I get an error on the confirm new location box that pops up. The standardisation tip box pops up with three boxes that are usually greyed out and which you can not click on. Clicking anywhere in the box gives the "ding" sound to show an error. I am then stuck here, I cannot get out of this. If I press enter a few times the program normally shuts down. Previously, I have been able to enter new locations with v7 so I dont know if its an error with some update as I use legacy infrequently.

RE: [LegacyUG] Childrens settings - step, adopted, twin etc
Thanks I'm using hotmail, and didn't realise it was sending in html. I don't know how to tell it not to send in html but will do a search on it. As you say this does show if they are twins but not if they are adopted or step children.

RE: [LegacyUG] Charting / Reports 1/2 children
Ron again thanks for your suggestions. You are right the report will show the relationships but unfortunately it is also very verbose. I may end up word processing the report I want myself. The problem I have is that all these programs are focused on the line of an individual, whereas I want the details for a couple. This is not meant as a criticism of reunion.Another example is a cousin of mine who is a close friend of mine. He has been with his current partner for 20 years. She had two children from a previous marraige. Stan has 3 children from 2 previous marriages. If we all get together at christmas or for a bbq etc there will frequently be Stan, Jane and their five children. However, if I use a descendent report It will only show his or her children, not all of them. If I set them all up as step children then they will be included but I wont know who the biological parent is unless I use the large descendant book report. What I am after is a one page report that shows the 7 people. > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: legacyusergroup@legacyfamilytree.com> Subject: > RE: [LegacyUG] Charting / Reports 1/2 children> Date: Thu, 16 Oct 2008 > 15:06:14 +0100> > > Mark,> > If the only addition you require is the > inclusion of the Child Status then the Descendant Book Report may be what you > are looking for -given that the child is linked to your uncle as either step > or adopted.

RE: [LegacyUG] Charting / Reports 1/2 children
I checked also and it works fine. However, in the report while it shows a different surname there is no indicator for the child status. ie it does not say that the person is adopted or a step child, they have the same status the biological children. Re which report - I don't care what report it is, simply one that will show all the children of both people, not just the one focus person. Ideally what I am after is a report that states the biological children of the couple, and then also the children of their other marriages. A sort of two sided descendant report. In a normal descendant report it shows the other spouses of the focus person, and any children. I would like the report to show the other spouses of the spouse and their children also. In this case it is two of my uncles, and all my life the children that I grew up with were one family unit and that is what I would like to see. I hope this makes some sense. If there isn't any such report, I can wp it, I wont have any choice :) > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: legacyusergroup@legacyfamilytree.com> Subject: > RE: [LegacyUG] Charting / Reports 1/2 children> Date: Thu, 16 Oct 2008 > 13:35:08 +0100> > > Mark,> > I have just checked and my reply to your first > email was correct.> > > Ron Ferguson> > > _> > > *New* Insert Pictures Into your Web Pages - Blogs> http://www.fergys.co.uk> > View the Grimshaw Family Tree at:> http://www.fergys.co.uk/Grimshaw/> For The > Fergusons of N.W.

RE: [LegacyUG] Charting / Reports 1/2 children

RE: [LegacyUG] Online download of Legacy 7 Question:
I believe it is installed to the root directory as some programs have issues writing to files in the C:\ProgramFiles\ directory. Personally, I have a strong dislike for any program installing to the root directory but with some you have no choice.How some programs work properly from the C:\ProgramFiles\ directory and others don't would seem to be an issue with the people writing the program.

RE: [LegacyUG] Off topic, but need help, off of this list, concerning Ancestry.com!
Hi Darlene First you Internet provider is not IE 6. That is the web browser you are using. The ISP is completely different and should not make any difference to viewing a web page. While I do not use it, it may be worthwhile to try accessing ancestry.com with a different web browser called firefox2. (mozilla.com/firefox I am pretty sure.) I am not sure what you mean when you say that "I had service pack 3 and had to delete it". You can not simply delete SP3. It needs to be uninstalled. Have a read of the microsoft knowledge base article here http://support.microsoft.com/kb/950249. Of these methods I prefer using system restore if you have not added anything important since then. I know this is pedantic, but computers are very black and white, the grey is where they do not work. It is very likely that any uninstall of SP3 has left odd files on your computer. If you have no luck, and you had no trouble viewing ancestry.com before sp3 I would consider reinstalling the OS from scratch, but this will depend on how many applications you have installed and what backups you have and your level of understanding. The best way is to reformat your hard drive which means everything on it will be deleted. You will need backups for everything and anything you want. While this is a big step, if you have had XP on your computer for several years it is normally a great way to clean up your computer. I do my computer every 6-12 months and it is an enormous headache but it does tend to clear up all the little issues computers get.

If you are having problems with ancestry.com it will help if you state the brand of processor (intel or amd), the operating system (XP or Vista) and what service pack you are on. It has already been stated that an amd based computer with XP SP3 has known issues with ancestry.com and it is not the fault of the user. It is also worth mentioning which browser and version.

If I double click on the name it opens up there Individual information which I do not want. In the Options Customise I can change what a double click does, but I am happy with how it is set for every other screen, it is only in the Index View that I want a double click to do something different to the default and go to family view.

RE: [LegacyUG] Upgrade to V7 I need convincing........
The first point is that this is a forum with a lot of the more advanced users and the few bugs that have been reported have certainly not been critical, to me at least. Here you will find the users that find issues and report them. For a major release there has not been that many issues and you would expect these to be cleared up with an update. What I would do is keep a list of the bugs reported, any solutions found and then see if they even relate to features that you use. If any bugs are on features you don't use or only minor then no real issue for you. Perhaps wait for the next update.Mark > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: LegacyUserGroup@legacyfamilytree.com> Subject: > [LegacyUG] Upgrade to V7 I need convincing> Date: Sat, 14 Jun 2008 > 09:21:04 +1000> > Hi,> > I am one Legacy User (Deluxe V6 last Build) who at > this point of time is > hesitant about upgrading to V7.

RE: [LegacyUG] Email list for legacy solutions only?
I already have 6 different email addresses, 4 for work, my "real" email address to my domain and hotmail. I do not want another. I use hotmail as it is tied into messenger and the kids use it to contact me through their mobile phones. Forums have advantages that a mailing list can not address, that said both have a place. A forum can also act as a mailing list, email people every post if they so want. Someone else started the forum concept and got shot down for it. The responses against a forum have largely been from people not familiar with them, and those for a forum from people who use them a lot such as myself. Have a look at this thread started on rootsweb. http://boards.rootsweb.com/surnames.legacy/1/mb.ashx Please look at it in flat view. You don't need to log in to look at it. It was started in 1999 with the latest response in March 2008. There are 19 posts, all in order and you can see everything that happened. Contrast that to even your response, it only deals with my latest email. Someone else would have no idea of the other posts or context of the original query in most cases. It is a pity that Legacy do not support the forums on rootsweb. Although they are basic it would at least be a start down the path of salvation or perhaps damnation.

RE: [LegacyUG] Email list for legacy solutions only?
I use hotmail for the Legacy mailing list. Yes I can sort it by subject but choose to sort it by date received as I also receive other email on this email address. If I chose to use outlook I could filter the incoming email and sort accordingly. I expect that many people use hotmail or similar web based emails with limited filtering capabilities.

What a lot of ill informed nonsense. How on earth is it easier to sort through every damn email than to simply look at a forum and then choose the topics you are interested in ONLY. You don't get every single useless, repeated and unwanted email clogging up everything. Message boards are in no way slower to email and usually faster, all the ones I use are instantaneous. Your point of sorting a mailing list is uneducated - a forum is basically a sorted email list except you don't have to receive or look at every email, you only look at what you are interested in. If you were on dial up now I doubt you would be wanting to receive a 100 plus emails daily on a slow list let alone the thousand you would receive on most. Did you ever wonder why mailing listed have almost died everywhere and forums took over - faster, easier, better searching, better history and you only look at what you want.

If I missed this in the mailing list I apologise but has anyone noticed that there has been an update for legacy 7. This is not legacy 6 to 7, but for 7. I have not seen this mentioned on their website and can not find any details of what has changed. Has anyone else noticed this? Mark _ Be part of history.

RE: [LegacyUG] Email list for legacy solutions only?
Whether or not legacy want to change to a forum or not is obviously up to Legacy. They could also decide to support the forum on rootsweb, but hopefully it would be better forum software than that. I strongly doubt the forum would ever be hosted by yahoo, but whenever any site, not just a forum, asks for personal information I doubt that the information that I give is of much use to them. Regardless discussing the issue can do no harm. It would however help if people educated themselves on their comments. For the benefit of Gene, yes many people are making uneducated comments on using forums. For the several people who have commented that they do not want to log onto a forum guess what - you don't need to. Most forums will let you read them without logging on. You will need to login to post a comment in most cases, but not all. However, remember while you are not willing to subscribe to a forum you did to this mailing list. If you choose to join a forum all the major browsers will save your login information and you will only ever have to do it once, again similar to subscribing to this mailing list. What you will not have is double posts, posts turning up hours to days later, and posts totally out of order. You will see all the posts in a thread in order so that you can follow a conversation without people responding to an old email or posting the same answer several times. Your answers will make more sense as they are in order and all the posting are there together to see at once, no opening or searching for several emails. Most also offer to email you is someone replies to your posts, or to a thread you are interested in. You can turn this feature off when you want but if you dont and someone replies to a query several months later you will be notified and understand what the response is about as all the old posts will be there also. You can even choose to have all the posts on the forum emailed to you so you would not even notice any difference to this mailing list. Even rootsweb has a flat view option on their forum Date: Wed, 11 Jun 2008 16:04:05 -0700From: [EMAIL PROTECTED]: [EMAIL PROTECTED]: Re: [LegacyUG] Email list for legacy solutions only? Please - don't make us log on to a forum. Also, Yahoo email registration requires you give your DOB and other info. I don't want it!

RE: [LegacyUG] Email list for legacy solutions only?
Firstly, I take exception to someone taking what I have said out of context. If you actually read Cathy's earlier reply she said that she last used a forum when she was on dial-up or a comment similar to that. I was last on dial-up about 10 years ago. Forums have changed a lot in that time. As Cathy's answer implied, her understanding of forums and their features was from several years back and she has not used one since she was on dial-up. To me her comments are uneducated (on this topic), and I do not believe that is an unreasonable conclusion based on her own comments. However, she is entirely free to have her opinion and express it, as am I. Secondly, I would use the rootsweb "forum" except there is no such thing. If you look on rootsweb it is a "mailing list". There is also a "mail archive". I can not find any forum for Legacy on there. If Cathy had taken exception to anything I wrote then I expect that she would have emailed me her concerns, she seems to be a person who can stand up for herself. The one thing you did get right is that mailing lists are odious to me. I could go on about the benefits of a forum such as the ability for people who like a mailing list to still get every posting as an email, but I won't go on about it. I do like to click on a topic and see every response to that query without having to open email after email, or go searching for an email from a few months ago to make sense of a reply. However, you do not seem to interested in a discussion on email lists vs forums. Mate the only person who has been rude is you, try reading your own response. It is very disturbing the way you take comments out of context and try to make an issue out of them. On a forum this is called "trolling". If you applied your own criteria to yourself, and are not a hypocrite, I trust you will unsubscribe from this list but somehow I doubt it.

Ron in response to why - because it annoys the hell out of me for some reason being so out of sequence. My family file has a total of about 7,000 people and the imported on was about 500 people.

RE: [LegacyUG] Manual version 7
thanks Bob I'm not sure what the deal is with the manual. When I bought version 6 a little while ago (May)I got the manual but didn't think I would have to buy one for v7. Mark To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]: Re: [LegacyUG] Manual version 7Date: Sun, 8 Jun 2008 11:31:41 -0400From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Mark, Check their sales page. You can buy a printed manual or buy a PDF manual or go with no manual. The help files are pretty good, but I still bought a printed manual 'cause it is easier to read in the "easy chair" and easier to highlite and dog-ear. Unfortunately several of the sections at the end simply say "see the xxx section in the program's HELP file". But what is documented in the manual (a lot), is documented well. http://www.legacyfamilytreestore.com/SearchResults.asp?Cat=1 Bob ----- Original Message - From: Mark K To: legacyusergroup@legacyfamilytree.com Sent: Sunday, June 08, 2008 1:02 AM Subject: RE: [LegacyUG] Manual version 7 Is there a manual that you can download for version 7 and if so where can I download it?

RE: [LegacyUG] Email list for legacy solutions only?
What a lot of ill informed nonsense. How on earth is it easier to sort through every damn email than to simply look at a forum and then choose the topics you are interested in ONLY. You don't get every single useless, repeated and unwanted email clogging up everything. Message boards are in no way slower to email and usually faster, all the ones I use are instantaneous. Your point of sorting a mailing list is uneducated - a forum is basically a sorted email list except you don't have to receive or look at every email, you only look at what you are interested in. If you were on dial up now I doubt you would be wanting to receive a 100 plus emails daily on a slow list let alone the thousand you would receive on most. Did you ever wonder why mailing listed have almost died everywhere and forums took over - faster, easier, better searching, better history and you only look at what you want.

RE: [LegacyUG] New V. 7
ROFL have u even tried Vista? I have vista 64 with 8gb. This is simply the best OS MS have ever made. It is more stable than windows 2000 even was and makes XP look like rubbish. You need to remember XP was an enormous memory hog in its time. The majority of people use XP with 2GB ram. Before XP 256 MB was considered a lot of ram so XP increased ram usage by 8 times and vista maybe double for most people and vista is the memory hog, go figure. IE7 is a standard part of windows as far as MS is concerned and a developer has every right to develop for it. IE7 may not have been part of your OS originally but it is a recommeded part of it today. SP1 and SP2 were not part of XP initially and SP3 includes IE7 I believe. Since the mapping program uses virtual earth, which is a MS program, guess what - it requires IE7. The point is you are complaining to Legacy when the issue is not theirs. They are doing the right thing and developing on the recommended platform. The issue is with the software you are using. You should be complaining to the communications software people, not Legacy.Further, Legacy do not require that you use IE7 as your browser, simply that it is installed on your computer. This is the newest genealogy software out there and they are using the latest software, naughty them, and you are complaining that they didnt develop the program for what is now a dead OS. Silly them, where is there forward plannning. > Date: Thu, 5 Jun 2008 22:41:30 -0500> From: [EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: > LegacyUserGroup@legacyfamilytree.com> Subject: Re: [LegacyUG] New V. 7> > IE > 7 was never part of my OS (XP Media Manager) and cannot use it as > other > programs I use for a daily at home job require IE 6 ONLY, so IE 7 > is not an > option.

Very, very similar to my experience. I am happy to say I got the serial number this-morning for my upgrade. Very smooth and hassle free. Imagine the audacity of someone who first agrees to the conditions of purchase where it tells you how long it may take to get the password / serial number and then they complain and complain.

I went to the site, reviewed the choices, made mine and shopped - everything on the site was clear and quite user-friendly (9:30 pm). Within 10 minutes I received via email a receipt and thanks for my purchase. Within 5 hours I received my password and instructions (2:00 am!). This morning when I went through my email I followed the instructions and everything went smoothly - all my customizations moved from Version 6 to 7 without any problem. Now I am up and running and able to play with the new version.Excellent job Millennia - I could not be more pleased. I am hoping you all get some well deserved rest soon. I am also hoping that some on this list get over themselves and their amazing sense of self importance or the sense that they know how to do everything better. Millennia is selling this product, they know their capabilities and time constraints. They can put the product out there and we can purchase or not on their terms - in many, if not all, instances when our purchases are made on line our credit cards are debited prior to receiving a product - I don't know why Wynthner is so aggrieved (not only in this instance but also a laundry list of "business issues" over the past month).

RE: [LegacyUG] Help with Install password for Legacy 7.0 Free version
If I remember correctly there was initially a message where you downloaded it saying that it could take up to 24 hours to email the password, but we will ignore that for now anyway - better to rant about something. Regardless, what a ridiculous load of rot you are arguing! I bet you wait more than a few hours every time you order anything through the post and you pay up front then or they don't send the item. Out goes amazon, ebay and any other form or mail order/delivery. Have you ever paid a deposit on anything - a house, a car, maybe a tv. You could have done the same here and mail ordered your copy, at least this way you would have given then a few days to plan where to holiday with the interest they got on your money. This is of course assuming it even goes into a interest bearing account. Regardless what a petty person you are. I hope the rest of the world is more generous to you than you are to others. How about you tell us all how much interest you were actually charged for the few hours they had you money and then worked out how much legacy made on your money. Despite your assertions its not even pennies. If if they had an interest bearing account they would not have earned close to even 1c in interest. It literally cost you a thousand times more money to make the support call because you are so impatient, than any interest they may have made or you lost. Maybe they are getting kickbacks on the calls?I am new to this mailing list but as I said previously - I have never known such a lot of petty, small minded whingers than what I have seen on this mailing list! > Date: Thu, 5 Jun 2008 13:59:20 -0700> From: [EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: Re: > [LegacyUG] Help with Install password for Legacy 7.0 Free version> To: > LegacyUserGroup@legacyfamilytree.com> > I use a debit card, not a credit > card, so it indeed MY money and not the card company's money of which we are > speaking. > Just think of the money Legacy could get in one day on alll > orders.

RE: [LegacyUG] New V. 7
Better yet they should write a whole separate program for you with separate pricing options. How dare they expect users of windows programs to actually have the browser that comes built into the operating system. I hope you also got your discount from microsoft since they supply IE7. This programs cost under $30 and I simply cant believe the people whingeing about it took a few hours to get a password (on the free version no less). Before they there were people that had been so loyal as they had the program since v5 or earlier and they should get a free upgrade. Honestly some of you people are incredible. If I was you I would consider being a true american and sue them for selling you a product under false pretences or something - don't let them get away with it. Of course you may also consider suing the people who make the communication tools that don't work with windows and IE7 but tht would seem a bit unfair, I mean one person makes software that works with the operating system and one makes software that doesn't and guess who you complain to. And yes, IE is as close to being a part of the operating system as anything can be.

RE: [LegacyUG] Installing version 7
Ok here is what I did as I was too impatient to wait for a response and this mailing list took hours to post my query (I still cant believe everyone uses a horrible mailing list rather than a forum). Anyway, what I did was first to backup my entire legacy directory (c:\Legacy) and all my datafiles. I found further details on the download page that said to uninstall legacy 6 so I did then and then installed V7. Since it needed a password and I didnt have it after many hours I emailed legacy and they sent it to me. I then installed the new one into c:\legacy. It picked up all my old settings and preferences as the uninstall didnt uninstall everything, obviously, and v7 works fine. By uninstalling you do get some old drivers off your system which is probably the main advantage to doing it this way. I expect in the next week I will get a reg key for v7 and will then be very happy. I agree with many users that sending the pw when you dl is not working very well, and it didnt work for me but have a thought for Legacy. They will literally tens of thousands of people hammering the system at the one time. There will be glitches. For a little bit of patience, and some manners, everyone will end up a lot happier. Anyway, back to waiting for my serial number :) Mark > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: legacyusergroup@legacyfamilytree.com> Subject: > RE: [LegacyUG] Installing version 7> Date: Wed, 4 Jun 2008 15:21:20 +0100> > > > Amongst other things your settings are all there> > > Ron Ferguson> > > _> > New > Blog: Free Contacts Database for use with Open Office> > http://www.fergys.co.uk> View the Grimshaw Family Tree at:> > http://www.fergys.co.uk/Grimshaw/> For The Fergusons of N.W.

I have downloaed version 7 and was wondering if it is best to uninstall version 6, install to a new directory or simply install over the existing program?
