RE: [LegacyUG] Upload gedcom to ancestry from V8
If you don't want to go through all the steps to re-create your GEDCOM file, just use Windows Explorer to search for it. Assuming that it is somewhere on your C: drive, just type in the search window, *.GED (without the quote marks). It will bring up a list of any and all GED files on the drive. Other than re-creating the file all over again or having Windows search for it, users of the forum cannot search your own computer. Just a tip, but in the future, you may want to consider creating all these GED files in the same folder that you can easily remember again. For example, just create them in the same folder where you family file resides. The .GED file won't affect the .FDB file.

Re: [LegacyUG] Upload gedcom to ancestry from V8
I usually recreate something that I have lost to see where my computer automatically saved it. There is usually a screen that asks is it ok to save it here and fives you the opportunity to change that to somewhere else.If you are not familiar with the windows search function that is a fast way to figure it out. The original answer you got was quite abrupt but a good choice. You will want to be familiar with the function for the next time you do it anyway.

RE: [LegacyUG] Upload gedcom to ancestry from V8
Another thing that works most of the time is to make another GEDCOM, but this time LOOK to see where it is being saved. There will always be a pane that will allow one to type in a name and at the top will show the path. So by doing the second GEDCOM, one can see where it would be saved, and the one can abort the making of the file. Now you can open Windows Explorer and browse to the Path that was shown in the last pane.

RE: [LegacyUG] Identity theft
I delete all social security numbers, don't include sources unless I really know this person, and tell them I do not want my information posted online. I had this experience recently with a distant cousin I never met. He belongs to the LDS church and he told me he doesn't use genealogy software and would be posting it to FamilySearch. I told him I didn't want all my research put there and if I did I'd put it there myself. My thought was since I did all the research, why should he get credit for my work so I didn't send him my entire file like he requested. Not happening. Instead I sent him a very scaled down version of my direct lines with just information his mother sent to me years ago (she died a couple of months ago) and some new information. I didn't include the sources or any images. I figure if they are really interested in the sources, they can request them later. If they don't, it's a strong possibility they aren't interested in researching to verify your data. This could also mean they are just going to post it online so they can have a massive number of names in their tree. Have Legacy remove living people and ones you're not sure are dead. You may have to manually go through the index of individuals to see who doesn't have a death date. If they were born in the 19th century, there's a great possibility they are dead. If you do include sources, I would delete any text attached to it. I know this is a big job, but I've done it for online trees. You've worked hard on your family tree. Don't give it all away just because someone, related or not, is too lazy to do the research themselves. My tree has information I researched pre-Ancestry.com and the old-fashioned way. I see too many people online want the research done for them. I had a guy who claimed to be a well-known writer (Googled him and came up with nothing) who wanted all my information, photos, etc. on one particular line. I wouldn't give it to him because he refused to credit myself and other cousins who provided the information. He emailed me recently saying his book was coming out soon and he needed a better photo than one he found online. I told him I didn't have one and I was using the same photo he had. One thing I considered is when his book is copyrighted, it will include my information. That means if I want to write a book, I can't copyright that same information again because he did it already and now he owns my information. I know of one tree on Ancestry that is copyrighted which is why I won't submit my photos to it. You never know what someone's intentions are so it might be better to quiz this trusted family member a little more before sharing. Find out what they have to offer in return or if they know anything about the family lines they are requesting. I tell all the fakes I've worked hard on my research and it didn't all come from Ancestry or other online providers. If they have nothing to offer in return then they are probably newbies.

Re: [LegacyUG] Potential Problems List
I find the easiest way to deal with the list of potential problems is to create a text file, not a pdf. By using ALT-TAB I can switch between the text file and database, and there is no need to remember the Rin for very long. Then I just delete each item from the text file as it is dealt with. Any residual problems I can't resolve easily are the just copied to a file where I keep all my more difficult issues.

I had this experience recently with a distant cousin I never met. He belongs to the LDS church and he told me he doesn't use genealogy software and would be posting it to FamilySearch. I told him I didn't want all my research put there and if I did I'd put it there myself. My thought was since I did all the research, why should he get credit for my work so I didn't send him my entire file like he requested. Not happening. Instead I sent him a very scaled down version of my direct lines with just information his mother sent to me years ago (she died a couple of months ago) and some new information. I didn't include the sources or any images. I figure if they are really interested in the sources, they can request them later. If they don't, it's a strong possibility they aren't interested in researching to verify your data. This could also mean they are just going to post it online so they can have a massive number of names in their tree. Have Legacy remove living people and ones you're not sure are dead. You may have to manually go through the index of individuals to see who doesn't have a death date. If they were born in the 19th century, there's a great possibility they are dead. If you do include sources, I would delete any text attached to it. I know this is a big job, but I've done it for online trees. You've worked hard on your family tree. Don't give it all away just because someone, related or not, is too lazy to do the research themselves. My tree has information I researched pre-Ancestry.com and the old-fashioned way. I see too many people online want the research done for them. I had a guy who claimed to be a well-known writer (Googled him and came up with nothing) who wanted all my information, photos, etc. on one particular line. I wouldn't give it to him because he refused to credit myself and other cousins who provided the information. He emailed me recently saying his book was coming out soon and he needed a better photo than one he found online. I told him I didn't have one and I was using the same photo he had. One thing I considered is when his book is copyrighted, it will include my information. That means if I want to write a book, I can't copyright that same information again because he did it already and now he owns my information. I know of one tree on Ancestry that is copyrighted which is why I won't submit my photos to it. You never know what someone's intentions are so it might be better to quiz this trusted family member a little more before sharing. Find out what they have to offer in return or if they know anything about the family lines they are requesting. I tell all the fakes I've worked hard on my research and it didn't all come from Ancestry or other online providers. If they have nothing to offer in return then they are probably newbies.

[LegacyUG] Can't uninstall 7.5
Well, I'm happy with V8, want to uninstall 7.5. Since I had read previous posts about uninstall problems and the missing install.log file, I first went to C:\Legacy and verified that I indeed did have that file. Went to the Legacy folder on my start menu and found an entry for Uninstall Legacy 7.5. Clicking on properties for this item, I found that it would execute C:\Legacy\Unwise.exe /U C:\Legacy\Install.log. Ran the selection, user account control asked for permission, said yes, then the Unwise executed very quickly (about 1 sec), no message such as uninstall completed, process finished or the like. Went back to the start menu, Legacy 7.5 still there, clicked on it and everything is still there and operational. Looked in C\Legacy, and everything is there except the install.log file. Tried to uninstall again, got message that install.log is missing. Reinstalled 7.5 from website, it recreated install.log (saw that recommended in previous posts) Uninstalled again, same result. All I can get the uninstall to do is delete the install.log file, nothing more. I should say that my installation is the 'default installation' with everything in C:\Legacy except that my data (family file, multimedia) resides in a separate data partition.

Re: [LegacyUG] Can't uninstall 7.5
Paul, Same thing happened to me. First I would check to see if you have the install.log file in the Legacy folder. If you do, make a copy of it and put it on your desktop for safe-keeping. Next, go into the Legacy folder , find the file named unwise.exe and double click it. Basically, you are ignoring the shortcut link inn the Start menu and just executing it manually. It will probably ask if you want to do a custom uninstall or an express uninstall. Choose the express uninstall. (NOTE: can't remember the wording exactly insofar as custom vs. express, but you will see what I mean when the window comes up). Let the express uninstall continue and when it finishes you should be good to go. Hope this helps. Just deleting the Legacy folder from your hard drive (as someone recommended) is probably not a good idea. That will get rid of the Legacy files but leave a bunch of invalid entries in your Windows registry. On 1/19/2014 3:33 PM, Paul Gray wrote: Well, I'm happy with V8, want to uninstall 7.5.

RE: [LegacyUG] Can't uninstall 7.5
Bob, That did the trick, except that I had to use the custom uninstall. Executing unwise.exe gave me three options, Automatic, Custom, or Repair. I first did Automatic and got the same old behaviour it just deleted the install.log file. Copied the install.log file back, and executed Custom. It threw up a few screens asking whether I wanted to delete this or that. For those items that were windows files (e.g. dll's) I said No, for those that were obviously Legacy specific, I chose Yes.

Re: [LegacyUG] Identity theft
I never, ever, share my entire tree with anyone, even my immediate family. What I do share is this: -- a descendants chart containing everyone in the line that is common to us, edited so that only first name (or the one they're known by) and last name are showing for living people. This way they know the living exist, but they don't have enough information to track them down easily. I start out by generating a text file of the chart, then editing that file down to what I want to share. I may attach that edited file to an email, or I may copy it into an email. If I do the latter, I change the font of the chart to a proportional one (usually Courier). -- a descendants book report, containing all (non-private) information I have, including sources, for those who are no longer living. I've also started creating closed groups in Facebook now, as well, and invite to it my Facebook friends who are connected to that branch of the family (I use a tag in Legacy to keep track of relatives on Facebook) so they can meet each other too. I post copies of the two reports above there as well, so that othes who I may not have exchanged information with in a while can see any new information I've gathered recently. I'm frankly horrified at the number of people I've come in contact with over the years, who share every last detail on everyone in their tree, including masses of living people. I record that information when it comes to me, but I don't pass it on until I know the person is now deceased or were born so long ago it's very unlikely they're still around. Hope this helps. :-) Wendy Michele/Support said the following on 20/01/2014 2:23 a.m.: Ed, I enter everything and source everything. HOWEVER, I am very selective with what I share with others. I will only export a select branch or even just a single family. I will mark people as invisible if I need to but I can’t even remember having to do this because I rarely send anything to anyone that is dated more recent than about 1900.

[LegacyUG] Relationship
I have a couple of nieces (on my wife's side - my wife's brother's kids). We took guardianship of them in their pre-teen years, thus I have added them to myself and my wife as children in Legacy. I have the children's setting Relationship to father (and mother) set to Guardian. My question - when I SET RELATIONSHIP on me or when I run the RELATIONSHIP CALCULATOR, why does she ONLY show up as my DAUGHTER? Why won't it show her as my NIECE also? (I have the non-blood relationships set to 10 - the max). Even if I unlink her from us (so she is only showing under her blood-parents), NIECE still does not show up for me (yes, I recalculated the relationships). This is true for both 7.5 and 8. For my wife, she shows up as both DAUGHTER and NIECE, but not for me. I guess technically she might be considered my niece-in-law, but I thought niece and nephew (and aunt and uncle) applied to both spouses? Similarly, for another niece (on my side of the family - with no guardian or other oddity): When I SET RELATIONSHIP on that niece, I show up as Uncle, but my wife does not show up as Aunt. Instead she shows up as Wife of Uncle. When I SET RELATIONSHIP on myself, the NIECE shows up as NIECE. When I SET RELATIONSHIP on my wife, my niece shows up as NOT RELATED to my wife.

[LegacyUG] Potential Problem display for an individual

You obviously did not read carefully what I wrote. I did not advocate, nor mention, providing program updates to Millennia's software at no cost to the customer. I only speculated on alternative means of providing more current versions of documentation to Millennia's customers who had already paid for the program and its documentation. In the case of the PDF manual version I fail to see where offering a free download update to that PDF file to those customers who had already purchased a PDF manual would represent any significant added cost to Millennia if they are udating that PDF version regularly anyway. Naturally such customers would have to provide their customer number to validate their entitlement to the updated PDF manual. I am always amazed at how people manage to comment on other people's writing without reading that writing. Any software firm is faced with a juggling act between holding production costs at bay while also supporting their customer base with adequate documentation. My suggestions were made with both concerns in mind, and I feel they offered options that might satisfy both needs.

Although Geoff's book, Unlocking Legacy 8 is very useful and enjoyable to read, because it is patterned after the Watch Geoff Live webinar presentations it is not well-suited for use as a easy reference work because it lacks an index.

Millennia has not done that. Updating the user manual every time there has been a change to the software could and would become an expensive undertaking for Millennia, yet you think that they should undertake this additional cost - free of charge to their customers. The help files are kept updated and I personally think that is sufficient. I'd be curious to know what other software company/companies update their manual (whether printed or pdf) every time they have an update to their software.

[LegacyUG] Potential Problem display for an individual
My Edit Children button is greyed out, so I'm guessing it applies to the children of this person, not to her siblings. I went back out of the edit individual screen to the Pedigree View window (where 7.5 had a useful display of her siblings) and did the right-click and view siblings shuffle. Now I get a list of sibling names (without any details), but there doesn't appear to be anything equivalent to the V7.5 Children's details option, so I still can't find a way to display a list of her siblings with their birth dates. Just another of the ways that V8.0 makes life a little harder for us.

Re: [LegacyUG] Potential Problems List
Hi Boyd, Yes - I can do that - I can also delete items from the pdf file with my programme but it seems it would be so much simpler to have a button - as in the To Do List - where it says Go to this person. Often there are several errors that will be solved in one family, e.g. where one of the parents birth, marriage or death dates is incorrect most of the siblings are affected by the one correction. I have suggested that if this could be done on one screen it could probably be done on another. I shall wait and see.

RE: [LegacyUG] Relationship
I can't answer the why part of your question, but it is how Legacy is set up. The Relationship displayed in Family View, Pedigree View and other places is always a blood relationship, immediate in-laws, or spouse of those. Other non-blood relationships are only shown in the Relationship Calculator, and then they are listed as not related but the relationship path is shown. Legacy's limitation of the aunt/uncle - niece/nephew to just the blood relationships does appear to be non-standard.

Re: [LegacyUG] Potential Problem display for an individual

There is a red button next to their birth details and when I hover over that, the pop-up says click to view details. So, I click and a reasonably big window appears with a single line Child 9 born too long after previous child and a bunch of things to do, none of which appears to show the list of children and the details which might be useful. It would be really nice to have a button Display siblings list. I would guess from what you've written that you're looking at the Individual View. Go back to the Family View and move the child down so that the parents are the main subject of the Family View. Those red dots are still visible (or should be) and can still be clicked on. Plus, you have the advantage of seeing all the children together. -- Regards, Mike Fry Johannesburg (g) Legacy User Group guidelines: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/Etiquette.asp Archived messages after Nov. 21 2009: http://www.mail-archive.com/legacyusergroup@legacyusers.com/ Archived messages from old mail server - before Nov. 21 2009: http://www.mail-archive.com/legacyusergroup@legacyfamilytree.com/ Online technical support: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/Help.asp Follow Legacy on Facebook (http://www.facebook.com/LegacyFamilyTree) and on our blog (http://news.LegacyFamilyTree.com).

Re: [LegacyUG] Relationship
And Kurt's last sentence explains why Legacy does differentiate between spouses of blood relatives. When relationships were redesigned to accommodate the other languages we had to change from the usual English method and differentiate between a blood relative aunt uncle niece nephew and the equivalent who were only related by marriage not blood so those languages could use the correct terminology.
