One of the Virtual User Group Webinars has a big section on Tagging.

Brian,

Unfortunately only Vol 1 is still sold. I have been asking about Vol 2 for
nearly a year now and have been told it is 'on the list' for updating, but
no announcement yet. Yes, it would be nice to have some real depth
information about tagging and how to tie that into the hashtags.

I am not sure if there is a Webinar but they do sell two sets of training
videos, Volume 2 includes a video called Tagging and Searching made easy.
The set sells for US$ 32.95 plus shipping.
See the description of both sets here:

The free training video Legacy for Beginners, See page above, has a 
section on importing a GEDCOM. I did not see any mention of exporting 
a GEDCOM however.

*Has there been a webinar that covers tagging, and doing a GEDCOM from 
start to finish? I cannot seem to get it. Regardless of how much I 
read, nothing seems to say, start here first, and do this first. I 
have used programs where all you did was choose who to being with and 
it was so easy and direct, so now I am lost. I know I am older, but 
hope I am not that far gone. Leonard*

Are you trying to import a Gedcom into Legacy or export data from Legacy?

Re: [LegacyUG] Location lookup causes Legacy freeze

[Jennifer Hardess]

Hi Ian,
I also was stumped by K Hill. I have it as a birth place in a record of 1909. I 
was told it was Kensington Hill, as part of the suburb of Kensington, 
Melbourne. If you disagree or have found something else please let me know.
Cheers,

Cathy -  thanks for trying to generate the same problem that I have had. I will 
carefully try to generate the same problem, after making a test copy of my data.

As I described, it occurred with a newly-created record, when I typed a death 
location K Hill (exactly those chars) and clicked the button to the RHS that 
has a small down-arrow, which activates the Master Location List (MLL). A small 
picture would help, instead of all these words.
Within that interface, nothing was found and the freezing of Legacy occurred 
when attempting to click Close to exit the MLL. Of the past occasions on which 
programme freeze occurred, I can’t give a blow-by-blow account of what caused 
the exact same result, but the application freeze did occur within the MLL and 
required Task Manager to close Legacy – as it did today.

I’m well aware that a grouch here is not a report of the error to Millennia. 
Before I decide whether to do that, I will have a few tries to replicate the 
error – but trying to suggest a very simple improvement to the UX with Hints in 
v9 a week or two ago left me exasperated. I may just put up with the faults and 
protect my data against damage by regular backups.

Ian,
Writing to this list isn't reporting to Millennia.

I've followed your instructions using the Legacy Sample file.

Understandably, K Hill, Victoria, Australia wasn't in the Location list.
I closed the List and entered it on the Individual Information screen without a 
problem.

What have I missed?

Tried again with my test file which is much larger. Messed around in the 
Location list changing the sort.
Still no problem.

Probably I'm clicking on the wrong thing. I click on the down arrow to access 
the Master Location List and not the world icon for the geo location database 
as I don't use that and don't have it installed. Is that where the problem is?

I have noticed this many times, and it has finally annoyed me enough
that I should report it to Mille nnia.

If a Location lookup is attempted in the Individual Info edit screen,
by selecting the control at right, under the condition below the
action of simply closing the Master Location List module (using the
Close button) will cause Legacy Family Tree to lock up. This requires
a restart; the current person’s data edit is of course lost.

This happens when the newly-entered locality cannot be found by the
module. In my latest mishap, my entry was K Hill, Victoria, Australia
(I hoped that I had an entry that was similar, in the Master Location
List; not so).

I believe this is ONLY when a new person is added and his/her details
are being entered, and have not yet been saved; if the person does
already ‘exist’ in the database, the list under ‘Geocode’ in the
Location module, headed “People using this location”. Perhaps it is
due to a slow lookup to Bing Maps – whatever the reason, it ’s annoying.

K Hill is an abbreviation used by state of Victoria (recorded in its
BDM index) around 1900s for some location – I have searched a bit,
cannot find a credible match.

For those paranoid about Legacy v9 – this occurred in v8 Deluxe , many
times.

Re: [LegacyUG] Register for Webinar Wednesday - The Great War: Researching Your World War I Ancestors by Michael L. Strauss, AG

[Philip Solida]

Geoff:
Myself and others within the local geneology society are looking at
starting a local Legacy users group (with regular periodic  (monthly?)
meetings, and are wondering what help may be available in this effort.
Certainty program info or ready made presentations would be of use, but of
greatest use and help currently would be of any legal or other restrictions
as related to your company and program content, group promotion, or
otherwise... example: a possible Facebook page? (for promotion, program and
meeting info, ect.) use of any logo or other recognized symbol of your
program or otherwise... (in association with meeting promotion) Our primary
purpose being to better learn collectively thru presentation and group
interaction how to better use the program, along with helping new users
learn the basics. Geographically we are located in North Georgia... Cobb
county (home of the new Braves stadium)... Marrietta/Kennesaw area
specifically, but as we know of no other users group in Georgia, we hope to
draw from other nearby geographic areas as well for membership for those
looking for help with program use and ideas. (Atlanta and north Georgia)
contact for myself is  psol...@gmail.com
