Re: [LegacyUG] Place names sorting
You are asking for a Genealogy program to perform the function of a Data Manipulation program. To get the results you desire, export the data to csv and then use a data spreadsheet type program to manipulate your data.

Re: [LegacyUG] Place names sorting
I should add here my own idea that I hope might someday be implemented to resolve many place name issues. First, lets break down the place field into the individual components. A field for Country a field for State a field for County a field for Name Then lets add another set of fields to help us manage places that are not municipalities. probably 3 fields would suffice for most any applications Field 1 might contain a name like ; St. Mary's Catholic Church field 2 might contain the address : 123 Main Street Field 3 might contain a place type maybe 1 for cemetery, 2 for church, 3 for hospital, 4 for residence. When exporting data to a gedcom, we would mash all the 5 fields (but not the type) St. Marys Catholic Church, 123 Main st., Chicago, Cook, Illinois, USA Importing data might be more difficult, but we know we can take countries and states and match to the known possibilities. We could also then set user defaults for which fields are displayed. Hopefully, eventually Legacy will implement something like this to help us all manage our places better.

Re: [LegacyUG] Place names sorting
Hi Kathy, Your problem is that you are choosing the wrong sorting option. Unless you strictly enter locations in the town, county, state, country format which appears to suit most of the USA but doesn't suit most of my locations, then you need to use the Right to Left sort. Then so long as you enter your information consistently from smallest unit to largest unit/country, then the bits will sort together. I include streets etc in my locations and by sorting right to left every location in a particular town comes together. Then the relevant items can all be highlighted by clicking on the first in the list and holding down shift when you click on the last. Then use the Options button and Show List to get everyone associated with that location. I did it this morning to get a list of everyone in my file associated with Wiltshire as there are new Wiltshire records available at FindMyPast. Once you've chosen a Right to Left sort, then you can change the direction of the locations in the list just by ticking or unticking the Sort checkbox. You don't have to click the Sort button ever again. However, while you are there, before you choose right to left you might want to choose Generic terms instead of USA terms.

[LegacyUG] Bi-lingual site
hi, Perhaps someone has a clever solution. My site is bi-lingual. The only way to implement that (I think) is to make two sites under the startpage. That is not the problem. But the problem is in the use of images. That asks for quite a lot of server space that I have to rent, as both sub-sites have the complete set of images. Does anyone has a solution to this problem other than to rent more server space?

RE: [LegacyUG] Place names sorting
As long as you are consistent with how many fields you use for each country your Master Location List will sort the countries together properly. For example, I use 4 fields for US, I use 3 for Germany, I use 4 for Poland and I use 6 for France. I have no problem with sorting. Where you run into problems is when you are not consistent within a country. Also, addresses and names of building do not belong in the location field. These belong in the address field.

Re: [LegacyUG] Place names sorting
So long as you are consistent and always end with the country, there isn't a problem. Just sort right to left and the places come together whether or not you want who lived in a particular town or county or country (or street) Michelle says addresses don't belong in the location. However. I've always put the address in the location and it works fine for me and many others. I don't like the way addresses report and you either enter incomplete addresses or get a repetition when you use the address field. I think there are other problems as well. Also I know addresses can now be mapped in Legacy 8 but I could map mine in Legacy 7. Jay, you can do that now if you want to use the 7 of the available 9 fields.

Re: [LegacyUG] Place names sorting
The problem is the address function Does NOT give you one cemetery addresses with everyone attached to it, it created one address record for EVERY burial, I dont want 1200 st. Mary Cemetery address records On Fri, Feb 20, 2015 at 2:36 PM, Michele/Support mich...@legacyfamilytree.com wrote: Jay, What is the problem with having one cemetery entry and 1200 burials attached to it? The cemetery/address would show up for every person and you could easily see who all is attached by simply doing a “Show List” The problem you will run into is when you share your information with other genealogists. The standard is locations go in location fields so if you send someone a piece of your file they will have a lot of cleanup to do. If you sync to FamilySearch you will get a “non standard” location warning message. I can give you a third option (and this is the one I use). I create a cemetery event. I like this option because I can add notes, transcription, photographs etc. If I really wanted to I could put the address in the description field along with the cemetery name but I don’t do that. Instead, the address (or directions) are in the source citation.

Re: [LegacyUG] Place names sorting
Ron, can you explain why? the names for the 4 main municipality location fields are just labels and could be adjusted as needed. Maybe they could be City, Parish, County, Country Or even just City, state, Country and have one field disabled There are many ways that these could be adjusted so that globally we are better off that the one field we have now. But since I am not familiar with the place name location needs of other countries, it would help if you explain what you do need.

Re: [LegacyUG] Cut and Paste not working
Not that I don't believe you, but it would be surprising for a stand-alone non-resident program to wipe out cut/paste in all other programs, so let me ask you a silly question: Have you tried booting? Try this: * COLD boot (not just restart, but shut down and let it sit a minute.) * While it is down, try unplugging your keyboard. Take a look at it unplugged - any keys feel strange or unresponsive? Any gunk between/under any keys? Give it a mild shake - anything rattling? Just for grins, check your mouse while system is off, see if anything seems amiss. * I've had odd keyboard issues and found that it does wonders just to power down and run your hand back and forth across ALL keys so they go down/up two or three times. * Plug your keyboard back in and then power back up. * Then, before you start legacy, try a simple cut/paste (maybe in a simple program like notepad). Use only your keyboard first (hold down shift and use arrow to highlight, then CTRL-C and CTRL-V. Then try using just your mouse (highlight and then right click). * If that works, shut down notepad (or whatever), start up Legacy, and restart Notepad. Try cut/paste in notepad while Legacy is in the background. * If that works, try cut/paste within Legacy. * If that works, try cut/paste from Legacy to something else (and then also try from something else to Legacy). I know some of us use cut/paste a LOT, but can you remember when was the last time you had a successful cut/paste? Has anything ELSE changed since then? (Windows behind-the-scenes auto-update, antivirus auto-update, any other new program, new hardware, new USB key, etc, etc, etc). If any of the above tests fails, try doing a system restore to just before the Legacy upgrade - see if it works then. And/or try uninstalling legacy and try the above tests. Then install an older version of Legacy. Try again. Then upgrade Legacy, try again. Yea, yea, yea, I know, that's a lot of testing. And I do believe you that it is not working. I just find it strange that a single program would impact your entire system. Some type of system update or resident program update would be more apt to be the cause. Yes it is probably possible for a 3rd party program to have a global impact, but . . . Good luck! I'd be lost w/o cut/paste (why do we call it cut/paste when we usually COPY/paste???). I can still remember when I first installed Windows way back in the mid 1980s (I started on PCs w good-old DOS). I was in a spreadsheet and wanted to put something from that in my word processor. I memorized it so I could manually type it in to the word processor and started to shut down the spreadsheet so I could start up the word-processor . . . and suddenly I remembered I was using Windows and could have both running at once! Started up the word processor, did a cut/paste, and was in total AWE! I sometimes miss the old days of simple DOS and MUCH simpler installs and little or not conflict between ANY programs. But there are definite pluses with Windows.

Does Geo Location work with all of your countries when you use this scheme? Bobby From: Michele/Support [mailto:mich...@legacyfamilytree.com] Sent: Friday, February 20, 2015 9:44 AM To: legacyusergroup@LegacyUsers.com Subject: RE: [LegacyUG] Place names sorting As long as you are consistent with how many fields you use for each country your Master Location List will sort the countries together properly. For example, I use 4 fields for US, I use 3 for Germany, I use 4 for Poland and I use 6 for France. I have no problem with sorting. Where you run into problems is when you are not consistent within a country. Also, addresses and names of building do not belong in the location field. These belong in the address field.

RE: [LegacyUG] Place names sorting
Jay, What is the problem with having one cemetery entry and 1200 burials attached to it? The cemetery/address would show up for every person and you could easily see who all is attached by simply doing a “Show List” The problem you will run into is when you share your information with other genealogists. The standard is locations go in location fields so if you send someone a piece of your file they will have a lot of cleanup to do. If you sync to FamilySearch you will get a “non standard” location warning message. I can give you a third option (and this is the one I use). I create a cemetery event. I like this option because I can add notes, transcription, photographs etc. If I really wanted to I could put the address in the description field along with the cemetery name but I don’t do that. Instead, the address (or directions) are in the source citation. Coal Town Cemetery (Lamar County, Mississippi; intersection of Coal Town Road and White Oak Road), Docia Leora Simmons and William Houston Simmons double marker, personally read, 2001. Westover Memorial Park (Richmond County, Georgia; 2601 Wheeler Road), Pamela Arlene Storey marker, personally read, 2002.

These belong in the address field. I disagree that Legacy LOGICALLY handles addresses and places in the ADDRESS field The best example I can give is a cemetery. If you added the cemetery name in the Burial address field for each person that was buried there, you would have an address record for each burial, instead of just ONE St. Mary's cemetery with 1200 records attached to the address.

Re: [LegacyUG] Bi-lingual site
Rob, No. you are dealing with images which may have the extension .jpg. “d*.jpg†Also be careful not to delete the file name and extension of the image. so you will need to spell out the path of the folder containing the unwanted image and replace it with that of the image you want, *as they are on the host site and not on your PC*.

Thanks for thinking with/for me Rob Vader It really is not difficult. Say the path to the folder with the pictures is IMG HREF=\Some_Server\MyPages\my_picture ALT=My_Picture and the other site is IMG HREF=\Some_Server\Other_Language\my_picture ALT=My_Picture you just have to change all occurrences of \Some_Server\MyPages\ to \Some_Server\Other_Language\.
