RE: [LegacyUG] unknown surnames

[Roger Jarrett]

I like the idea of using privacy brackets [[]] in the name field but upon
looking in the help file it would seem that this option is only supported in
the notes. Is this true? Can [[]] be used in the name fields?

...or you could also put identifying information within privacy 
brackets[[]].This is VERY handy in preventing the accidental merging 
of the 35,000 unknowns in your database. . By putting(for 
example)[[wife of Joe Blow]] into your database as a first or last 
name for an unknown female, the information is available to you but 
can be easily excluded in any reports.

Re: [LegacyUG] unknown surnames

[Brian/Support]

The Descendant Narrative also has the option to insert underlines for 
missing names, dates and places. The Family Group Sheet has a variation 
on this. It will insert a small name, date, place for missing 
information. These are positioned in the top left of the box where the 
information should be inserted.

I use a different approach entirely because I like how it looks in the 
reports that I do for my clients and for myself.


I use 10 underlines in a row for a name.  In using this to send reports 
to family members, I find they fill in the blanks easier and faster than 
seeing 'Unknown" in the wording.

for example

last name unknown - Sarah __ 
first name unknown - __ Smith

both names unknown - __ __

field blank, use "unknown"? Any suggestions?

As others have pointed out, there is a Yahoo group, but it is apparently 
not greatly used.


Those that keep suggesting there should be an additional group should 
bear in mind that whereas there are a few (FSVO "few") who can't cope 
with the traffic on the existing one list, there are likely to be many, 
many more who cannot cope with 2 lists, so the more lists there are, the 
less chance of anyone getting the help they need as the knowledge and

I think the complainants might also bear in mind that one of the reasons 
why there are so many posts to this list is that it is very popular just

Possibly because they didn't develop it, and the 3rd party software doesn't 
offer such a thing.


To me a Digest is a pure waste of time, and would cause much ire when 
inexperienced users try to respond to a specific message. Whole Digests 
quoted. Thread titles not changed.


My simple advice. Learn how to filter and organise your emails.

Why reinvent the wheel.  Subscribe to the Legacy group through Rootsweb.
 You have the option to subscribe in digest mode.  I wouldn't hold my
breath waiting for Millennia to bring their list serv into the modern
day.  They refuse to add vital security features such as the ability to
block html and attachments, so do not hold your breath waiting for them
to offer a digest mode.

I'm not sure why the Legacy website programmers do not allow for a DAILY 
DIGEST feature for those of us who want it.   True enough, there is a lot to 
wade through if there is just one LEGACY e-mail per day, but one can usually 
look to the SUBJECTS at the front of the digest and click on or go down to 
the particular subjects that interest them (they are usually numbered).  In 
the absence of this, someone may wish to set up a YAHOO LEGACY group for 
those members who wish to be able to get a daily digest since that feature 
is available with YAHOO groups.   I did a search and although there are a 
couple related groups like one for using Legacy with websites, there doesn't 
seem to be a Yahoo group devoted exclusively just to the Legacy Family Tree

Hi Mary,

Did you reset the relationships after you entered the new people?  It

You could create a rule or filter to divert the list mail to its own 
folder, which creates the same effect without having to wait for the 
digest to arrive.


This has been discussed plenty of times in the past on this list, and 
you can read those posts in the archives.  I've posted before about 
instructions on my personal web site for creating rules/filters for a 
variety of mail programs and services which you may find helpful if 
you've never set one before.

[LegacyUG] OPTION FOR DAILY DIGEST IN FUTURE ??

[Jerry]

I'm not sure why the Legacy website programmers do not allow for a DAILY 
DIGEST feature for those of us who want it.   True enough, there is a 
lot to wade through if there is just one LEGACY e-mail per day, but one 
can usually look to the SUBJECTS at the front of the digest and click on 
or go down to the particular subjects that interest them (they are 
usually numbered).  In the absence of this, someone may wish to set up a 
YAHOO LEGACY group for those members who wish to be able to get a daily 
digest since that feature is available with YAHOO groups.   I did a 
search and although there are a couple related groups like one for using 
Legacy with websites, there doesn't seem to be a Yahoo group devoted 
exclusively just to the Legacy Family Tree Software.   Just a thought 
for what it's worth.

Why doesn't Legacy have a forum setup instead of or along with a mailing
list?  I prefer a forum myself because I can check it when I please and can
subscribe to individual threads that I prefer. This mailing list is so
active that my phone is constantly buzzing and I now ignore my phone, which
is bad because I will miss my important emails or IM's.

Re: [LegacyUG] unknown surnames

[Kathy Shiell-Stokes]

...or you could also put identifying information within privacy 
brackets[[]].This is VERY handy in preventing the accidental merging 
of the 35,000 unknowns in your database. . By putting(for 
example)[[wife of Joe Blow]] into your database as a first or last 
name for an unknown female, the information is available to you but 
can be easily excluded in any reports.

If you have an unknown spouse but known children, when you add the

If you know that someone was married but you don't know what their 
first or last name was you can add an AKA such as Mrs. David Smith 
and then leave her name blank


If you only know the first name of a spouse just add the first name 
and leave the surname blank [David Smith married Gladys for example]


If you have children but the parents are unknown you can add a 
father with the same last name and the spouse will default to unknown

RE: [LegacyUG] unknown surnames

Both Ancestor and Descendant BOOK Reports offer the option to automatically
insert underlines for missing given and surnames as well as missing dates
and places if desired. To my knowledge, this is the only type of report with
this option.

I use 10 underlines in a row for a name.  In using this to send reports

Re: [LegacyUG] unknown surnames

[Ron Ferguson]

Laura,

You make a very valid point for the purposes of your reports, which in this 
case are designed to elicit a response from the recipients. It also 
illustrates that the treatment of unknowns depends on the personal choice 
and end use, as I would not wish for underscores except for the purpose 
which you describe.

Re: [LegacyUG] Impossible to unsubscribe?

[Dawn Crowley]

This list is an "opt in" service provided to us
for free by Legacy.  One stops receiving messages by unsubscribing.  If
this service does not suit your needs, you may opt not to use it. 
Therefore, the LUG email, by definition, is not spam.  

It *is* a very active list most days.  This comes in mighty handy when
a problem arises!  Others who have experienced the same issue chime in
and readily share their tips.  I appreciate this added benefit with
this program and learn much from the varying points of view presented.

Simply resubscribing to another email address that you can log onto and
read at your leisure looks like it could work for you.  Another option
is to use the LUG archives.

Possibly because when this question has been raised on this list the 
majority of users do not want it.

Why doesn't Legacy have a forum setup instead of or along with a mailing 
list?  I prefer a forum myself because I can check it when I please and can 
subscribe to individual threads that I prefer. This mailing list is so 
active that my phone is constantly buzzing and I now ignore my phone, which 
is bad because I will miss my important emails or IM's.

RE: RE: [LegacyUG] Impossible to unsubscribe?

[Sherry/Support]

We’ve discussed this many times on the LUG list.  Many of our users are on
dial-up or have monitored time on the internet and forums can be cumbersome
and slow to load (even on broadband!), eating up internet time.

There is a Legacy Fans site on GenealogyWise
http://www.genealogywise.com/group/legacyfamilytreefans

I have email accessibility on my phone but don’t allow emails to come in
automatically. When I want to see them, I go to the email folder and
download my messages.

Thanks for using Legacy.

When you have problems unsubscribing, please consider the following options:

* Make sure you've selected the option to Unsubscribe.  When you go to the
web page, "Subscribe" is selected by default.



And therein lies the problem.  When selecting a link to unsubscribe the 
default should be "unsubscribe."  At the very least there should be NO 
default selected.  If the request is submitted with no selection checked 
a warning should then point out the choice.  I have encountered this 
"default subscribe" mentality on a number of occasions and it invariably 
angers me to the point I no longer wish to have anything to do with the 
site in question.  This behavior seems counter productive for any 
product, something the Web Site designers should consider.


* Double-check the spelling of your e-mail address when unsubscribing. 

* E-mail addresses can have valid variations.  For example: 


john...@msn.com  (variation 1)
john...@mail.msn.com  (variation 2) 


* E-mail addresses can have aliases that bear no resemblance to your actual
account address.  For example: 


res12x...@verizon.net  (account address)
john...@verizon.net  (alias address) 

* E-mail can be forwarded from one address to another.  For example: 


john...@deseretonline.com  (old address)
john...@mstar2.net  (forwarding address) 


Our automated system -- a computer -- is very literal.  It cannot recognize
misspellings, variations, aliases or forwarding addresses that are different
from your e-mail address as it appears on our subscribers list.  Please try
unsubscribing again considering these facts.


If all else fails, please contact us at supp...@legacyfamilytree.com.  If a
lot of people are reporting this we can look into our email program and see
if there's a problem with it.  Otherwise it might be just an isolated
incidence and your message will be forwarded to the appropriate person who
can manually unsubscribe you.

Thanks for using Legacy.

Re: [LegacyUG] FamilySearch ID pull-up list

[Mary E. V. Hill]

Thanks, Mike. For the time being I am putting the FamilySearch ID
number in the AFN box as well as in the FamilySearch ID box. That way
I can pull up a list. I had not been using the AFN field, so this is
working for me. Can anyone see any future problems with my work
around?

  I have just returned here after a 3 year or so absence. As an interim measure 
and until you can get properly unsub'd, is it not possible for you to set up a 
mail filter to send these messages directly to your trash/bin without going to 
your inbox?

Good (well sort of) to know I'm not alone.

As you can see I am still getting messages - as if I never unsubscribed. 
With the volume of Legacy newslist messages I just cannot afford to come back 
with Legacy messages having filled my mailbox and crowded out all other mail.

The inability to receive mail as a digest and now the inability to even 
unsubscribe underlines the need for better newslist software.

Re: [LegacyUG] Help with deleting without deleting :)

[Eliz Hanebury]

Merging (individual by hand) works better  but now you know why we
don't recommend merging different records - it becomes a huge pain.

Re: [LegacyUG] Help with deleting without deleting :)

[Heather Stovold]

Without looking at your database - I suspect that both you and your husband
are likely only entered once in the database (probably) - but that there has
ended up being 3 marriages for the 2 of you.   You need to check if you are
listed as having "other marriages" and if so, say to unlink people from the
extra marriages.

Now that said, as you deleted your husband, and then reentered him, you
probably don't have the 3 marriages anymore, and don't need to do that
so go to your husband's parents, select to Add child, then select add an
existing person - then select your husband to add to their family.

(note that it is always best to make a backup before you do things like
merges, or deleting someone, or anything else when you aren't sure what to
do to accomplish what you want done.)

Re: [LegacyUG] Help with deleting without deleting :)

[RICHARD SCHULTHIES]

First, don't delete people, unlink them.

Re: [LegacyUG] Location Mapping

[Kay Fordham]

I just checked Ancestry.com mapping on the 1930 census. The map appears with 
the balloon; however, move it around a little and it disappears (the map, 
that is). Appears Legacy is not the only one with the problem.

Wow! The plot thickens. Things have definitely changed at BING. Now I am
able to CRASH or LOCK-UP Legacy at will.

Would others please try the following to see if this happens to you. I 
would
suggest opening a test file and not your real database or else make sure 
you

have a current backup.

1. Using either the menu or the blue triangle for an information window, 
get

to the Master Location List.
2. Click on the GEO-CODE box at the top and select "Geo-code all 
un-resolved

locations through Virtual Earth" (message to programmers: please change
Virtual Earth to its current incarnation of BING.)
3. An error window will appear. You may click YES, NO, or QUIT.
4. It doesn't matter what you click because you'll be stuck in an endless
loop of getting another error, OUT OF STACK SPACE.

You might get lucky and get back to the first error window but you are 
still

stuck. There is no way to close Legacy without closing the error window,
which refuses to do so.

You will have to terminate the LEGACY.EXE process using Windows Task 
Manager

(CTRL-ALT-DEL) or just reboot.

Seems as if BING changed the calls or parameters that needed to be passed 
to

its interface and Legacy is stuck sending data using the old method which
causes the lock-up or crash. Its not Legacy's fault because it used to 
work

but as someone else already stated, "Microsoft moved the goalposts."

You can move the pin. You just have close the map and reopen to see where
it's 
been put. Again, smacks of an API change.

[LegacyUG] Impossible to unsubscribe?

[jeffma...@orthohelp.com]

I've seen emails on the newslist from people who asked how to unsubscribe 
and I just assumed they did not read the bottom of the emails which clearly 
says


"To unsubscribe: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/LegacyLists.asp  "

Now I understand their dillemna. They were not crazy or uninformed.  They 
were just frustrated.


I've been to that website and unsubscribed - several times ... ! Each time 
the website confirmed that I was indeed unsubscribed.  But, that webpage 
must have not told the newslists because I continue to receive messages. 
Very aggravating.  Something is broken.

Confirmed. MS/Bing not working with Legacy 110 & IE 7, nor is it 
working with Legacy 110 & IE8.  I'd say the MS boys hiccuped pretty good.


HOWEVER, in either IE version, I can go to an individual, open the 
Individual Information window, click the locations, get taken to 
locations, and the map works! Is that a clue for something?

That is also true for me, Evert, which strongly suggests that this is a 
MS/Bing created problem since Legacy has not been changed.

[LegacyUG] Manual Merge

[Lester Davis]

Hi,
I contacted Technical Support earlier today and want to comment that 
they were great.
This is a very powerful program that I use as a front end to enter data 
for uploading to our web-site that is powered by TNG.

Thanks Legacy for a great program.

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. And IE8.0

I have also noted a new difficulty with the mapping feature.  From the 
symptoms I would suspect that Bing has stopped honoring mag requests 
from Legacy software, possibly blacklisting Legacy.  I would hope that 
the programmers have already been in contact with Bing regarding this 
matter.

I recently installed Windows 7 and ever since every time I launch my Legacy 
program it first wants to install something called "smartsound quicktracks 
plugin, and get the error code 1706."

Using Google, I searched the net for a fix and have downloaded "promised"

Anyone have any knowledge of this problem and what the real fix is?

Thanks in advance for your help.

Why not just make a backup of your database and give it a try? You can

Some complaint here!

There is no movement of the map when in Master Location List view, so if I 
enter from the Master List icon and select a place which has already had 
Lat & Long entered the map doesn't "go there".  If I select a place which 
doesn't have the Lat & Long entered, the map doesn't "go there."


If I click the arrow by the Location field from an Individual's screen, 
the map will "go there" if the Lat & Long are entered, but nothing happens 
if there is no Lat & Long already entered.


Having accessed the Master Location List via a location which has Lat & 
Long, if I right-click to re-position the pin nothing happens (the pin 
doesn't move), but if I close that screen and then go back in I find that 
the pin as been re-positioned.  Similarly, if I enter a new location, and 
enter the Lat & Long, it doesn't appear on the map but if I close the 
screen and go back in the pin has been positioned.

Sherry,
Bing Maps seems to be working fine for me (finds locations and gives
directions) but I'm having the same problems as the others from within
Legacy on both my XP desktop and Vista laptop (using IE8 on both).
I've never had a problem with mapping before this.

RE: [LegacyUG] Master Location List help

[Sherry/Support]

I think you’ve hit on it, Todd.  Legacy’s mapping calls up Bing (was Virtual
Earth) and if there are problems with that website, you'll encounter
problems using the mapping in Legacy.

If you're having problems with Legacy's mapping, go directly to Bing/Virtual
Earth and see if there are problems on the MS website.
http://www.bing.com/maps/

Thanks for using Legacy.

RE: [LegacyUG] Master Location List help

[Brian L. Lightfoot]

Interesting. I seem to be on the exact opposite end of the current mapping
problems (or lack thereof). Prior to last week, if I got to the Master
Location List by using the blue triangle thingie next to a location from the
Individual's Information window (or Marriage Information), the map would
never come up. However, if I used the menu item, View/Master lists/Location,
then the map would come up. The difference is that getting to the Master
Location list from the menu would start with the topmost blank item
selected. From there, I could select any location and the map would zoom to
that location as expected. I figured it was a bug that would eventually be
addressed.

Suddenly last week, I noticed the map working as expected regardless of how
I got to the Master Location List. I know Microsoft was having some problems
with the roll-out of Bing and I just figured those problems were continuing
until last week. As it stands right now, the Bing map feature is working
perfectly. 

No complaints here.

[LegacyUG] Master Location List help

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

How can I correct this?

Re: [LegacyUG] Heritage Collector Suite offer

[Kramer]

Angela, I was just going to ask the same question.  One of my co- 
workers just used iMovie on a Mac computer with photos to make an  
awesome presentation.  I wonder how this differs.  I also wonder if it  
user friendly and worth the money.  There are other ways to organize  
photos and family members might like the bubble IDs of family members  
but they might also like to see a clean photo without that.  Legacy  
has a photo center to store photos, it's just organizing the links to  
the photos that is the issue, I believe.  I too was wondering for that  
price if I should pass or not since I don't know anyone who has used  
it yet.

[LegacyUG] Mappint and IE8

There are other times when the year is one of two, such as regnal years.

To enter 15 March 1806-1807, be sure to enter the full years - 1086-1087.

Using 1086/87 will not work unless the within the double-dating period.

RE: [LegacyUG] entering royal titles

[Kirsten Bowman]

The best guideline I've seen for this situation is _Getting It Right_ by
Mary H. Slawson.  (I bought my copy from the Legacy store.)  Slawson has a
full 100 pages on how to handle names and titles using Legacy screens for
her examples.  Although many people make up their own rules for entering
this data, Slawson's book is heavily oriented toward LDS members doing
temple work, so perhaps following her suggestions would bring up more hits
in the IGI or other LDS databases.

The guidelines are far too extensive to quote here, so I'd suggest you
invest in the book.

I'm having a problem searching for IGI names.  I haven't been able to find

Typically royals don't have formal surnames prior to the early 1900's so
where exactly do you put their title?  Do you put the entire title as their

Re: [LegacyUG] entering royal titles

[JRAYMOND651]

You'll probably get lots of suggestions and things get complicated with the 
 Windsor's.  In 1917, the name  House of Saxe-Coburg and Gotha was  changed 
to House of Windsor by King George V (Edward's son), largely because of  
anti-German sentiment during WW I.

So Edward VII (son of Queen Victoria)  and his son, George V (until his 
1917 proclamation), ruled as the House of  SCG.  In 1917, however, George V 
issued this proclamation: "Now, therefore,  We, out of Our Royal Will and 
Authority, do hereby declare and announce that as  from the date of this Our 
Royal Proclamation Our House and Family shall be  styled and known as the House 
and Family of Windsor, and that all the  descendants in the male line of Our 
said Grandmother Queen Victoria who are  subjects of these Realms, other 
than female descendants who may marry or may  have married, shall bear the 
said Name of Windsor..."

Thus, Edward VIII,  later Duke of Windsor and son of Edward VII, had the 
royal surname of  "Windsor".  You could reasonably use "Windsor" as the royal 
surname and use  the suffix field to denote his two titles: King Edward 
VIII, later Duke of  Windsor.
 
In 1952, Queen Elizabeth II reaffirmed George V's proclamation and managed  
to make this situation even more complicated.  Some of her descendants are  
"Windsor", but others are "Montbatten-Windsor".
 
As for the Archduke of Austria, I believe he was of the House of  Habsburg.

I'm sure others will have better suggestions; as I said previously,  things 
can get complicated.

RE: [LegacyUG] entering royal titles

[CE Wood]

There is no standard, even among the most reputable genealogists.  There are
continuous debates among them.  Remember, PLANTAGENET is not a surname.

The important thing is to have in your files as many of the different names
a person is known by.  That does mean much searching, but that is the
research necessary when dealing with titles, especially pre-1600 ones.  And,
spellings are all over the place too, so familiarity with those variants
helps too.

Legacy allows a person to be entered in many different ways, the main reason
I switched ages ago.  For instance, you can enter (surname in CAPS):
Humphrey V de BOHUN, suffix = 1st Earl of Essex
prefix = 1st Earl, Humphrey V de Bohun, of ESSEX
Humphrey de BOHUN, suffix = 2nd Earl of Hereford
prefix = 2nd Earl, Humphrey de Bohun, of HEREFORD

If you show AKAs, you can find the person under BOHUN, HEREFORD, and ESSEX.
This method can also show the succession of titles.

Legacy returns zero hits.  If I go to the website and enter First Name:
Ferdinand Karl Archduke of  Surname:Austria  I get 3 results.  However, not
all records are like that. 
 
I'm confusedWhat is the actual standard for this?
Thanks a bunch
NConway
