Is there a particular reason you want to go back?   After making a gedcom of your Family File(s), you will have to uninstall Legacy then delete the files in the c:\Legacy folder - being careful not to delete any of your saved files such as reports, pictures, etc.

 Then install the previous version of Legacy over that. You can't go back to a previous *build* of v7.5 - those are no longer available, only the final builds of previous *versions* of Legacy are. That is v3, 4, 5 and 6.

 The gedcom will lose your SourceWriter sources (moot point if you're going back to a previous version since SourceWriter was introduced in v7) and history list and the dates added and modified will be changed to the date you import the gedcom.

Do you have the latest build 7.5.0.201?  There was a bug with settings in a previous build which as been fixed.Go to Options > Customize > Data Defaults and make sure the setting for "Units of Measurement" shows "inches" and not cm.

 Then go back to the report and click on "Reset" in the lower right corner to reset the settings.  Sincerely, Sherry Technical Support

[LegacyUG] Decendant Narrative Text Report Formatting

[A. J. Rawls]

The most recent update seems to have changed something in the layout for the 
Decendant Narrative Text Report when saving it as an RTF file.

I tried two different word processor (Microsoft Word 2010 and LibreOffice) I 
cannot set margins.  The report is generated with about a 4 inch left margin 
and I cannot find a way to reformat it globally.

A report I generated before the last update came out perfect, so I believe 
something broke it.

Any Suggestions?

I need to prepare a 300 page booklet by next week and I am stuck.

Thanks,
A.J.

Do you know of a way to suppress the entries in the notes section when

research but i use Legacy to produce narrative reports for reunions and I 
cannot find a way to exclude the notes text from the narrative reports.

What I do, is Create the census event under the marriage event for husband
and wife and in the notes section Include the household as listed on the census
and enter the source and any pictures. Then copy the event to the event
clipboard, then for the children that appear on that census I copy the event to
their individual event and then use just their line of information in the notes
section of the event. That way they appear on the chronology report when they
were single and appear after their marriage when they do.

Michele,

For my Great
Grandmother I entered a 1930 census event under her info and the 1940 census
event under her and her 2nd Husbands marriage. I then went to her and had her
highlighted and changed to Chronology tab and both events show up 1930 and 1940
Apr 4 is the Census Event listed with the details that I put in the note
section. Have you checked your chronology options? You have to put a check mark
to show the events for both sections.

The one problem with
this is it is a lot harder to follow someone through the census years this
way.  If you enter it as an event under the person, every census they
appear in will show up on the chronology/timeline.  Doing it your way will
mean only the census records after they married will show
up.
