[LegacyUG] Picture File Locations

2013-04-11 Thread Tony Rolfe
The most important thing to remember is that filenames should be unique
across all directories used by Legacy.  This is a restriction of the way
Legacy stores file names and locations.  If you get it wrong (I did in
the early days) it can be almost impossible to sort out.

So, if you have two Mary Smiths in your database and each has a scan
called "Birth Certificate - Mary Smith.jpg" then you are heading for
trouble, even if they are in different folders.

To solve this, I include the RIN (In) for an individual or the MRIN
(M) for a marriage in EVERY file relating to a person.

Images relating to loctions are more difficult, but you still have to
keep the names unique.

The second most important thing is to ensure that there aren't any
spaces in file names if you intend to put the files onto the web.  I let
Legacy rename my files when it creates web pages, so I don't have an
issue here, but some folk do.

Other than that, whatever works for you is best.

Cheers

Tony

Re: [LegacyUG] Event notes

Put them in [[brackets]]. Unfortunately, there is no easy way, within
Legacy, to do this globally. An Access script could be written, I suppose.

I would like to see the event notes on the screen but would like to be able
to exclude them in the reports. Is there a way to do this? I have looked
everywhere and have not found a way.
Thank you,
Sharon

All the samples on that page were created using the Basic Source System
