Re: [LegacyUG] Messed up my upgrade from Legacy 8 to 9and also lost my family file

2021-05-11 Thread Charles Brasell

Hi Brian , thanks for responding to my call.
I have located my family file but am unable to open it. It comes up in the Open File on 
the ribbon.


The problem I think is my entering the Legacy 8 customer No instead of the legacy 9 
Customer No, when opening the Legacy 9 download.
I have been back to the download area with the download password, to try downloading 
again, with the legacy 9 Customer No, but  the download page is unavailable.
I feel confused looking at a blank screen when I have always had the family looking 
back.


Is there someone from Legacy Family Tree monitoring the user group or should I go 
elsewhere?

When you install Legacy 9 it overwrites the Legacy 8 installation. Your family file 
will have the extension .fdb. If you have a shortcut on your desktop to open Legacy 8 
it will open 9 not 8.


You can use Windows Search to find all files on your computer with the .fdb extension 
and it should find your family file. Note the folder where that is located then use 
Legacy File > Open File, point to that location and Legacy will open your file.

  that is why I was wondering what "change the data in the field" and

It's the sort of thing you would do in Access but SHOULD DEFINITELY NOT DO.

Is there any possibility that you are trying to rename a picture to the
same name as another?  I think the two "suggestions" you quote would be
compatible with that situation.

I'm sure it would only help.  I would unlink the photo from the various
people, rename it outside of Legacy and then re-link it.  That should
sort it!

[LegacyUG] Error saving record to picture information work file. Error 3022

2015-10-06 Thread Charles Brasell
I'm having trouble understanding this error message;

"the changes you requested to the Table were not successful because they 
would
create duplicate values in the index, primary key, or relationship.
Change the data in the field or fields that contain the duplicate data, 
remove the
index, or redefine the index to permit duplicate entries and try again.
(Note the cause of this is often fixed by doing a Check/Repair on the 
family file)
Would you like to TRY IT AGAIN ? "

Choices are; YesNoQuitOnline help

Clicking Yes or No seems to have no effect at all. Quit closes Legacy and I am 
trying to
avoid online help because I have since entered a lot of material.

Could someone explain "changing the data in the fields" bit ?
And "remove the index' and 'redefine the index' to permit duplicates.

The cause of all this was a photo that was attached to someone, and I renamed 
it to
correct spelling, and another photo I added to his father.  I was using the 
Picture
Center (which I think is a brilliant addition)
After half a dozen Check/Repairs the Picture center did reopen and seemed OK so 
I
carried on like a diligent Genealogist. But it is now shut with Error 3022.

Re: [LegacyUG] Problem correcting locations in Mapping the Family

2015-08-23 Thread Charles Brasell
Brian and Cathy
thanks for the response, I have fixed the Lat/Lon.
Cathy your comments are so helpful, I did not realize the geo_code was not 
connected to the Geo Database.
I need this as I have many US locations.
It must be this database that could be improved  by the facility to add 
locations, Provinces etc.
It would probably be helpful for other countries as well.
I Will put it forward as a suggestion.

  Subject: Re: [LegacyUG] Problem correcting locations in Mapping the Family


  Charles,
  The easiest way is to go to the Master Location list as Brian says and then 
highlight the problem location (if you access the Master List from the arrow at 
the end of the location field in the Individual View, it will already be 
highlighted)
  then click the Geo-code button above the People using this location list and 
choose Do not auto geo-code the current location.
  This removes the Lat/Long co-ordinates and puts a - in the L column.

  Then you can use a nearby location already entered and properly mapped to get 
near the place in order to manually map it by right clicking. Just make sure 
you've shifted the highlight back to the right location before doing the right 
click on the map.

  Note if you sort the Master List from right to left then all the New Zealand 
locations should be together if you've entered your locations consistently 
ending with the c ountry.

  Moving the map to the right place as Brian suggests is really awkward when 
crossing the globe and it's really easy to do something and see the map fly all 
the way back to the wrong location. Marking the location first to do not auto 
code stops that fly back.

  Note that the Geo-code button has nothing to do with the separately 
downloadable Geo Database. That's something I don't use at all as I have very 
few USA locations and I don't find it helpful for non-USA locations.

  I research and map all locations I enter checking the Verified checkbox when 
I'm happy the pin is on the exact spot. I include churches, street addresses 
etc in the location as I don't like the output when they're entered as 
Addresses.

If a place is incorrectly mapped you can move the map to the correct place 
then right click with your mouse where you want the place to be
marked. Legacy will get the lat and Long from Bing Maps for that spot
and update the values for that location.

You can also manually edit the lat and Long values on the Master
Location list screen but you must use degrees minutes and seconds for
the coordinates.

  Does anyone have a suggestion of the 'Best Way' to add a Source that is taken 
from a on-line tree such as Ancestry.com,  FaÂmilySearch, RootsWeb, etc.?
  Up to a few days ago, I created a Master Source on-linetreename.com, from 
there created a Source Detail with that listed the Tree's name and owner. In 
the Text/Comments box, I added whatever information I had copied; in the 
Comments Optional box, I listed the url to the particular individual of 
interest.
  Recently, I wanted to refer to an on-line.com tree that I knew I had Sourced 
before, but, couldn't find my source notation and spent 1/2 an hour searching 
both in Legacy and on-line!  Major problem, which caused me to question this 
method of entering this particular Source.  What wonderful timing that in 
today's Legacy tips e-mail the article on 'Lumpers vs Splitters' should address 
this very subject - Thank you Wendy (I would live in New Zealand if I could).Â
  There is not a Master Source in SourceWriter that seems to fit though - the 
on-line.com profile page is not a 1). Family Group Sheet,  2).GEDCOM file.

Hi Cathy

Thanks for your assessment . I Have only just joined the game again after some 
years off and was looking forward to making some use of the research guidance 
facility, being retired, but this may partly rule it out.
Chrome is my default and I also entered it in Options 11.1 but from what you 
say I am still unclear when Chrome will be used and not the IE engine, because 
Chrome does not seem to open from research guidance.
I wonder whether  script errors come up in these live demos of Legacy currently.

  Hi Charles,

  Web pages that open inside Legacy use an IE engine. This cannot be changed. I 
also get the warning (and errors) using Win 8.1 and IE 11. This will happen 
until/unless the programmers update the IE engine being used.

  Web pages that are launched from inside Legacy but open in a separate browser 
open in your default browser - or the browser you nominate in Options - 
Customise - Launch - In Legacy 8 it's option 11.1. This happens when you search 
from Research Guidance - Suggested Sources tab and when you use the Internet 
Searches on the Internet Ribbon.

  Hope that clarifies.

Yes, it is disappointing that Vista is not compatible with IE11 and IE12 which

No! Legacy doesn't explicitly use IExplorer! It uses the Internet Engine that is
built in to Windows. This is the mechanism used by Legacy when accessing the
internet directly, and is one of the ways Microsoft got around the browser
unbundling requirements of the EU. You can set the default browser opened by
Legacy to be Chrome (see option 11.1), or if Chrome is defined as your default
browser, leave the option empty, but Research Guidance doesn't go through a
browser, therefore it will always appear as if IExplorer has been used.

The first thing is to make sure it actually installed.   It installs into a 
hidden
folder so you have to have hidden folders and files turned on in Windows to see 
it.

It is in C:\Program Data\Legacy Family Tree\GeoDB  (Program DATA not Files.  
This is a
folder that is normally hidden)

Hello Michele

Thank you for helping.

I downloaded the Geo Database and it appeared to install ok but nothing is 
happening
when I click to search.
When I first installed it I got a message from Vista to say it may have a 
compatibility
issue and to install using windows compatibility fixes,  so I did that - but  
program
not work.
I then reinstalled it without the compatibility fixes but still - no work.

The geo database is working in legacy 7.5 on the same computer.

Any further suggestions?

Charles,
That message means that the Geo Location Database did not download completely.  
I will
send you a special link you can use via a private message.  You should be able 
to
download it fine from there.

Re: [LegacyUG] Problem with the Living Indicator and 'M', 'F', '?'

2014-11-26 Thread Charles Brasell
I have a couple, who both have birth and death dates on the form but all the 
indicators
are grayed out for both.
The dots for M and No for the man,  and F and NO for the woman are slightly 
darker.
I'm sure they were lit up in Ver 7.5 before going to Ver8.Very Strange

My entry shows a dot for living but the M is gray, my son has 2 bright dots for 
living
and M

Eerie

I don't mind the exclamation marks, I'll have to live with them, they do their 
job, and
my success rate at getting rid of them is very low.

You cannot modify the male female indicators when a person is married or
linked in a similar relationship. To change gender in those cases you
can use the swap husband and wife on the Edit menu to change the gender
of both participants.

Living = No will also be set and cannot be changed if you have entered
anything in the death or burial fields.

Those red exclamation marks are showing potential problems, if you do
not want to see them on screen Go to Options  Customize  8. View and
turn off section 8.11 Monitor Potential Problems.

Your memory is incorrect. Legacy has always greyed out the gender when a
person is involved in a marriage and has changed living to No and greyed
out the setting when any details are entered for death or burial.

Your M is grey because you are married. Your living is active because
you have not entered anything related to your death or burial. Your son
is not married so his M is active and you can change him to your
daughter by setting that to F. Same with his Living, it is not greyed
out because nothing has been entered for his death or burial.
