Re: [LegacyUG] File ID
I'm having some difficulties with my sources not showing up as end notes in book reports/Decendant Narratives. I'm sure it is some switch I haven't addressed, but I've been working on this for a number of hours this weekend and getting frustrated. I've tried to follwo the vidoe in census data entries and I have put the 'File ID' in the chosen place, but it doesn't show up in the end notes. Some of my older entries still show this, but since I have started to use the source/writer, this seems to occur. Suggestions welcomed. Tell me where I'm going wrong.

Re: [LegacyUG] File ID
We have that already. The presentation output is different. Tell you what, try this: 1. Go to the Assigned Sources For: window 2. Pick a source, write the name down so you want forget. (You probably will want to come back to it.) 3. Click Edit Detail. 4. File ID is located here, be something is entered. If not, enter something. (You can change it later.) 5. Be sure that Add this Detail to the Source Citation on Reports is checked. 6. Click Save. 7. Go back to the Assigned Sources For: and make sure the Show Entire Source is selected. 8. Go to the Output Tab in the Assigned Sources For: window, and look at the output. You should see: Cit. ID: Test Filename Test Filename is my temporary File ID for this. You are entering File ID into the File ID field, but it is being outputted to sources at the end of the source after Cit. ID: Here is what mine looks like: Kathy Carneal DeBoar, CARNEAL-DeBOAR - THE CARNEAL FAMILY of Virginia, The CARNEAL HISTORY, PRIMARILY WILLIAM CARNEAL, HIS PROGENITORS, DESDENDANTS AND ALLIED LINES (Indianapolis, Ind. 123 Publishers Road, 1992), In possession of Robert Carneal, Page 57. Cit ID: Test Filename That Cit. ID: Test Filename is the file ID. This is located at the end of the citation. Admittedly, it is presently differently, probably to adhere more strictly to Elizabeth Shawn Mills' style of formats, but it is still there. Robert JLB wrote: Have already reported this as a 'bug'.

Have already reported this as a 'bug'. Probably the wrong name for it but I miss it too and hope they can bring it back.

Re: [LegacyUG]File ID#s - was (no subject)
I don't know what else to say about it. I'm not 'complaining' about anything. I'm simply stating a fact. I'm not stupid, apparently just inarticulate, although I write for a living. I will repeat myself and see if that makes it more understandable. When I click on a Source under the Sources tab, in the Name List, where I know there is a File ID# attached, sometimes the File ID# shows itself and sometimes it does not. You're right, there is no File ID # 'field' on the name list. However if I, or you, click on a Source under the Sources tab, a summary of it will show in the free space under the Sources List. i.e. name of the Source, Detail Information and File ID# is there is such a thing. It's not about lack of space. The File ID# is simply erratic about showing up or not showing up, when I know there is a File ID# there that could be showing up.

Try reporting it as a bug just like that to Millennia. But is the OP referring to the File ID of the Master Source or the Source Detail? Now that I (partly) understand the nature of the problem I have tried a few variations myself. I don't usually have a File ID connected to a Master Source, only to most Source Details, but I have added one to a couple of additional Master Sources for test purposes. In either case, the File ID is showing up every time *provided there is room for it*. Thus, the Master Source File ID is usually there, provided there isn't too much wording in the Title and Publication Facts and the Source Detail File ID is more rarely showing. -- Jenny M Benson Legacy User Group guidelines: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/Etiquette.asp Archived messages: http://www.mail-archive.com/legacyusergroup@legacyfamilytree.com/ Online technical support: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/Help.asp To unsubscribe: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/LegacyLists.asp
Re: [LegacyUG]File ID#s - was (no subject)
If I understand you correctly, using this sequence Name List - Sources - some source - Detail button a specific source shows a File ID for some people but not for others. I have encountered that. What I found was two sources with what appeared to be the same name (Legacy identified one as Master Source 25, the other as Master Source 32). I printed the two lists (View - Master Lists - Source - select source - Show List - Print) and edited the people on the shorter list to use the other source, then deleted the duplicate source (although Legacy did NOT find any duplicate sources - my guess is that one had an extra space at the end or some other invisible character in it).

Re: [LegacyUG]File ID#s - was (no subject)
I understand that's what you think and/or have experienced. In my own experience, if a File ID# can show up after 3 lines of 'other stuff' I don't see a 'real-estate' reason for it not showing up when there's only one line of 'other stuff'.

Re: [LegacyUG]File ID#s - was (no subject)
Not to make too much of this: I am aware of where the File ID # should be showing up on the Name List under the Sources tab, and where it doesn't because it isn't there in the first place. It is, as I've said, inconsistent. JL Connie wrote: Hi JL, I'm just now jumping into this midstream, so please correct me if I'm wrong... Are you are saying when in the 'Name List' you are unable to see the Source File ID shown all the time? I am assuming you are clicking on the 'Detail' button at the bottom far right of the Name List screen, in which prompts the Source Detail screen to pop up... and the Source File ID is not being shown there when it should be? Do I have it correct? If so, when you go to the individual's source listing (via Family View) and click on the 'Edit Detail' button... is it showing there??? If not, I have a feeling the Source File ID' is not added as part of the Source Detail.

Re: [LegacyUG] File ID assistant and deleting duplicates
Thanks Cathy, You are right; I do need to familiarize myself with this feature. That was easy enough. Kindest regards, Beth G. Cathy wrote: Hi Beth, The File ID assistant is there to show what file IDs you've already used so you can enter the following number - or in your case, so you can check that you haven't used the name before.

Re: [LegacyUG] File ID assistant and deleting duplicates
Hi Cathy, I guess I am brain dead. The reply below was supposed to be to the search information. The file ID assistant is another story. When you use a name + number, and reference the document location for more than one citation, does this same name + number show up multiple times in the list and if so why? I have tried alternate entries, such as Frederick Thompson, 1 Nancy Coker; Frederick Thompson Nancy Coker; and Frederick Thompson Nancy Coker, 1. The same file name repeats itself on the list for each occasion that I reference it. Is this the way it is designed? Kindest regards, Beth G.
