I also use the Verified in the place name fields when there is a dicrepency in a city name that is no longer in the original county and I have duplicate place names with different counties or states. That way when I go through and clean up the master list for locations I don't merge them or delete them by mistake and I have verified that the place existed at one time.

Arnold, Look at the date/time sequence of the messages in question. I think you'll see that Ted didn't reply to your message. If I read things correctly, Ted did exactly what you did - used Geoff Rasmussens' original 6.0.0.117 announcement message. So, to be pedantic, you both hijacked Geoff's message :-) To others that are wondering about the use of the terms kidnapping and hijacking of threads. This occurs when people are not particularly careful in their haste to start a new thread and inadvertently(?) reply to whatever it was that the last message they were reading was. When they reply to an existing message, their message, possibly under the guise of a new, totally unrelated subject, becomes part of an existing thread. If they were to have written a new message, a new thread would have been started. This happens far too often on this list and tends to muck up the message threading. Please note, proper threading does NOT happen on the contents of the message subject field. It happens through a normally unseen message header (part of the message envelope if you like). When you reply to a message, your reply contains a reference to the message that you are replying to. This reference is used by all decent email clients (not web-based email necessarily) to maintain the sequence of messages and replies. -- Regards, Mike Fry Johannesburg. *** Give the gift of Legacy for the holidays!

Re: [LegacyUG] Duplication of children
Thank you, Brian, I found the error, and one of the situations was a case where there was only one set of parents, but somehow they showed up in Legacy a second time, married to each other and linked to the children, but I had only entered the data once, and did not mark half children for them, as there were no half children. But when I unlinked the offending parent, it automatically dissappeared, I didn't even have to delete it. Ted Ted Rissmiller [EMAIL PROTECTED] Have you heard about Legacy Family Tree?

If so look for a 1/2 in front of the child's name. What Legacy is showing are children of another marriage for the husband (if a mother's name is shown) or the wife (if you see a father's name). You can turn off the view of these 1/2 children by right clicking on any child's name and selecting view show 1/2 kids. It also seems that you have attached these children to two sets of parents. The birth parents and to the husband and a second wife. When you do that Legacy will include the children twice, once for each family of which they are a part. I glanced through the attachment but since I am not familiar with the names in your family and you did not say where in the report the duplication occurred I did not immediately identify the duplicates. In most reports you can choose not to repeat duplicate lines. The option is on the Format Tab of the Report Options. The name at the top of the duplicate line will be repeated and will be cross-referenced back to the original point in the report where the full line appears.

The extreme flexibility provided in Legacy is one its strongest points. Each user must decide on their own standards and then learn to stick to them when entering their data. a user should not have to discover logical entry paths from scratch when a few guidelines would suggest a logical way to do something and avoid a lot of unnecessary rework. But the user MUST decide for himself which method to use to get his desired results. Others who want different results will have to use different methods. As Elizabeth is constantly reminding us, you must decide what you want your output to look like before you can figure out how to enter your input. I didn't do that initially, and after finally checking a bunch of the reports, I had to go back and adjust a lot of my data to create output that I could live with. It now seems clear to me that census is best not used as an event, but obviously that is not automatically evident to a new user That may work for you, but it is not a universal answer that will serve every new user well.

The second issue is that the Legacy pdfs don't have properly embedded fonts. I downloaded InCtrl5 as Dave suggested, and Legacy creates (unsurprisingly) various temporary files in the windows temporary directory. The pictures are clear to see, but the text is in a format that I cannot decipher. So I got hardly anywhere with that. If one exports the Legacy pdf from Acrobat 6 professional, one has funny layouts wherever one goes - to html, rtf, word etc. In none of them does the text wrap round the pictures, some children are in tables etc. Very curious. Someone said that Wordperfect handled pictures better than Word, so I guess I'll be onto ebay soon for a copy. I had a letter from Sherry at Millennium, who said:- I do know that Dave's working on reports - I'll pass the comments on about the rtf files to see if there's anything he can do about it. I do see what you're saying about the placement of the caption and description. As for the pdf, there's nothing we can do since it's part of the print preview package created by another company. I have no idea where the preview is stored. Maybe we can get some feedback on that when we report the issue with the pictures in the rtf. I usually don't hear anything back from the programmers on these things and never know what's been worked on until a build is released! Well, whatever.

I like the Legacy Family Tree software program and I am hoping to be able to use it, along with Macromedia software such as Dreamweaver, to set up the web page databases and interactive capabilities--in essence, giving family members around the world the capability to work on family history projects together, in real time and with seamless work compatibility. I want all family members to have access to documents and images, which will be digitized or hyperlinked and stored on our own server. This way our documentation is available as well as the individual and family statistics. For instance, we have family bulletins, family stories, pictures, certificates, tax and census records that we would like our children and grandchildren to have easy access. We would have journalling and personal history sharing capability, and the all important research logs. It will have several user defined security levels to protect their individual, family, and extended family privacy, while still making other appropriate information available to the public.

Re: [LegacyUG] Backing family file onto CD
I have found that Pinnacle also allows writing to CD. Ted Rissmiller[EMAIL PROTECTED]Have you heard about Legacy Family Tree?

You have to make the backup to your C: drive first – then copy the resultant file to your CD. The only program that I know of that allows direct storage of a Legacy Backup to CD is Roxio Easy CD Creator.

I am the only person logged onto my laptop and I am at a loss as to what I can do. I currently have to back up intoData and then send it to drive E, it just takes longer than it should! Any ideas anybody?
