Re: [LegacyUG] Emdash - How to search for "97

[Cathy Pinner]

Margaret,

They don't work in Legacy 8 & 9 in most places.
It has nothing to do with how you enter them.
They just don't work.
There's a bug report on this and I've just added another note.

Re: [LegacyUG] Unable to open Legacy 9.0--Ah-h-h SUCCESS!!!

[Pat Hickin]

Well, after I restarted my computer, attempted to open Legacy (without
success I thought) and was doing something else, at that point Legacy
opened!!  I did the file maintenance routine (nothing seemed to be wrong)
AND the image I'd tried (I thought unsuccessfully) to add was there!  So
all is well--thanks for all your suggestions!! Especially, Wendy,
restarting my computer -- perhaps I hadn't done that previously, tho' it's
usually the first thing I do when I have problems.

Are you getting any sort of error message when you go to open Legacy and it
fails - in which case, what does it say?  Or is it just not doing anything?

Have you rebooted your computer and tried again after doing that?

How are you opening Legacy?  Do you have an icon on your Desktop or Taskbar?
Or do you locate your data file in File Explorer and double-click on that?
Or something else?

Re: [LegacyUG] Divorce in Legacy Charting

[Michael Feldman]

That's it. You can select to move a single box, an entire generation, or a 
line of boxes. I suggest playing around with the single-box option to see 
how a box's attached lines behave when the box is moved.

I will need to move the spouses apart a bit to make room for "div". What
is the method to do that without moving their whole line?

Re: [LegacyUG] Descendant report problem (fixed, cause discovered)

Ian T.You should check for duplicate parents.   Under misc in search there

It probably needs Legacy program to suggest to user what the cause might be – 
and, for the check/repair to generate an error for this condition and suggest 
its cause.
Though of course the situation is not unheard of.  If it is true, what should 
Legacy FT do?

In this case for my data – it was untrue.

Subject: [LegacyUG] Descendant report problem

I have a weird error message when running a Descendant report at 5 generations 
– OK at 4 generations. Legacy v9 flags a marriage and gives me MRIN and the 
couple’s names.
The message is that it has processed the marriage 3 times, and there is danger 
of an endless loop.
I backed up, ran Check/Repair (see my previous posting to this list, about 
same-sex relationsship reporting as a possible problem), and after re-running 
the check/repair I have tried the same Descendant report – with the same result.
The error message allows 2 more loops before stopping – I chose that, and 
printed the page on which that error occurs (very grateful for that 
error-checking coded into Legacy, which allows some clarification).
The printed report shows the wife twice (her RIN 710) at gen 5, so I checked 
her parents children: she is the last born, no ‘duplicate’ (and I would not 
expect the RIN number to be duplicated). Her DOB is too soon after birth of 
previous child (but that’s the data I have, and I have seen that problem before 
with no affect on Descendant report).

All I can think of doing is to unlink her from the marriage and her parents, 
and relink. Any other suggestions to try?
