Re: [LegacyUG] Search the Internet for Current Person
Hi Marilyn, I figured it out quite accidentally after I posted the query. I also replaced Alta Vista. Now I need to add Google. What a neat feature. Thanks for the response. Kay - Original Message - From: Marilyn Clark paddypeppe...@yahoo.com To: LegacyUserGroup@legacyfamilytree.com Sent: Monday, August 31, 2009 1:25 PM Subject: Re: [LegacyUG] Search the Internet for Current Person Go to a person in your Legacy file, then click on the globe Internet on the top menubar. Then click on Search Internet for Current Person... It opens a pop-up window where you can replace one of the 8 websites to choose from with Find A Grave. I used Alta Vista because I never use Alta Vista. Click on the button, Customize Searches... and it opens another pop-up window where you can Select one of the Internet Searches (I still used Alta Vista as my choice). This opens up yet another pop-up window called Select an Internet Search. [none] will already be highlighted. At this juncture, click the Add... button. *Another* pop-up window will appear where you can name your new search (I named it Find A Grave) and then you can finally paste that long URL into the first box. The second box already has []=[%20] in it so all I had to do then was Save and it was done. Alta Vista was replaced with Find A Grave on that first window, and it works great. BTW, the Alta Vista search string is still there in Legacy, apparently Legacy can only display 8 other websites at a time, to search from, in that very first pop-up window. Sorry if this is too simplistic, I'm kind of a detail nut...
