Re: [LegacyUG] An apparent bug?
I suspect the programers made a rule that no name can be less than 2 characters or something similar. This is possibly a Windows rule, or Access rule. You have a person named I. I have lot in my database. When using Roman Numerals the program is confused. It is actually spell checking and not finding it. I just accepted the quirk and used the Potential Problems to 'fix' the problem.

Re: [LegacyUG] An apparent bug?
Rich, Now I understand. I am looking at the I in a numerical sense, but Legacy is not. Thank you for the explanation.

Off topic but I have an Edward Grantham in my file :) Can you email me at cranberryf...@charter.net so we can compare notes? michele - Original Message - From: jraymond...@aol.com To: LegacyUserGroup@legacyfamilytree.com Sent: Sunday, September 13, 2009 4:39 PM Subject: [LegacyUG] An apparent bug?

Just ignore the note you recieved and go to potential problems and choose to have the computer ignore it forever.

Re: [LegacyUG] An apparent bug?
Jon, I was able to duplicate the problem just as you described. I've not had occasion to use I, because I don't have any II's in my database. It would be frustrating to me, since this is a suffix, and not a given name or surname. You can choose to have Legacy ignore the message for this particular individual. The message I received indicates Name Suffix then goes on to say Given Name or Surname I'm sure this is not a big problem that the programmers will put high up on the list of things to fix, but I did want you to know that it is a Legacy issue and not a particular problem with your individual database.
