Re: [LegacyUG] Family Search

2012-03-23 Thread Deborah Trounstine
That worked great, Paul. Thanks so  much for posting this!

 If you already have a “regular” Family Search account, go to the link
 below. About halfway down, there is a link ‘click here to open the
 registration page.

 That brings you to a registration page. Do not type in all your
 information to create a new account. Click on Sign In at the upper
 right, enter your existing family search id and password, and follow
 the instructions. If you are accepted (there are non LDS spots
 available) you will get an e-mail link and some instructions. This
 effectively upgrades your regular familysearch account to a new.family
 search account .

 I and several others have used this in the last few weeks and obtained
 access to new.familysearch.

 five different individuals.  I did a lot of
 cut and paste, but I ended up with what I wanted.

Re: [LegacyUG] Legacy User Group reputation

2010-06-26 Thread Deborah Trounstine
Hi Charles - I appreciate your comments about the LUG as a whole. I have
to say though, that I was shut down rather rudely in the past by a
know-it-all on this list and just decided to quit commenting at all. A
lot of what goes on here is ridiculous and a waste of time. Offering a
helpful suggestion or opinion about how to solve a problem - sometimes
after a great deal of thought and careful writing - is more likely than
not to be hijacked by somebody who just wants to be the resident expert.
There would have to be a really compelling reason for me to participate
in this list anymore and, at the moment, I can't think of one.
Too bad.

I'm not updating from v7.0 until I know that I won't get more bugs.

Brian L. Lightfoot wrote:
 Has anyone else noticed something that I have? Ever since Millennia decided 
 to become Family Search certified, there has been a plethora of small little 
 bugs that have crept up. One fix seems to introduce two more. For this very 
 reason, some users have decided to stay with the original v7.0.0 and some 
 have even dropped back to v6. I don't recall things being this hectic in the 
 recent past.

 But let's put this all into perspective - the bugs have been small, sometimes 
 more of an annoyance than anything else. Of course some of these bugs have 
 prevented certain users from accomplishing a specific task or enabling a 
 specific feature. Nevertheless I find it all interesting that so many things 
 can go wrong all at once. I'm just wondering if the next update shouldn't 
 be given a retrograde version number, perhaps something like v7.0.01 and we 
 start from over from there. :-)

 Go to Family View for a person whom you know has the Master Source and
 Source Detail which you require. Click on the Source Icon (Library Books)
 and highlight the particular source required. On the bottom left of this
 screen is a paste icon. Click this and the Source and Detail will be copied
 to the source clipboard.

 Use the copy icons to copy to your Indivual, Event etc. on the Individual or
 Event etc. Screens.

Re: [LegacyUG] SourceWriter: help with source detail

2010-02-01 Thread Deborah Trounstine
Hi Patricia,
Yes, I leave the old source in place until I have created the new one in
SourceWriter and tested it to make sure that all the info is there and
it works properly. In the process of creating the SW source, I do a lot
of copying  pasting which makes it faster.
Beware that there are still a few bugs in SW - e.g. in a number of
source types, if you enter the source text and then choose a repository,
all your text will disappear. So now I always choose my repository first
and then enter the text and I always test the source by completing it
and then reopening it to make sure everything works before I delete my
old source.
Hope this helps. If you have a more specific question, I'd be glad to
try to help out. I've now converted about 600 sources to SW.
Deborah

 I did not run into this problem because, on page 142 of Evidence Explained

 Based on this I used the, Artifacts  Privately Held, template for the
 Family Group Sheets and Pedigree Charts that I have received from others.

 Hope this helps,

[LegacyUG] Basic Format?

2010-01-06 Thread Deborah Trounstine
When entering a source using the SourceWriter, can someone tell me what
they mean by Basic format
e.g. Books  Book, authored  Two authors  Basic format
I have been assuming that Basic format means that you have (or have
viewed) a hard copy of the book, but the form that is provided in SW
doesn't really contain spaces for all of the citation details that I
would expect. This Basic format shows up in a number of the source
templates but this happens to be one that I'm looking at right now.
Any help with this - or suggestions on a better source medium to
choose if you have a hard copy of the source will be appreciated!
Thanks,
Deborah

Hi Connie,
What you describe is the way I've been using the medium basic format
too. I guess I was looking for more details for a complete citation -
like year of publication, number of pages, edition, ISBN number, etc. I
think the way you have been modifying the template to fit your needs
makes the most sense.
Thanks!

 Deborah,

 ISBN numbers and the total number of pages in a book are not part of standard 
 citation practices.  The specific page number(s) of your citation are on the 
 details screen.  (I'm not sure which you are referring to).

 If you are using a revised edition, you will want to use the revised edition 
 template (Step 1), and then you will see a field for the edition number.  
 Publication date is part of all the book templates as far as I know (there 
 are so many permutations possible I admittedly didn't check them).  Be sure 
 to scroll all the way down as on some of the templates the fields do not all 
 fit on one screen.  I think there is an option you can check to remind you of 
 this, but I turned mine off.

It's so annoying that newbies don't know there is no digest - but on the

Maybe we can designate one person who monitors the list pretty
religiously to respond ONE time to those digest? inquiries and then we

Re: [LegacyUG] Adding homosexual partner in Legacy.

Hi Luis,
I would add a gay partner the same way I would add a spouse or a life
companion of the opposite sex. If you click on where you would enter the
marriage date (that blank area below the couple that says marriage
information) you can fill in when they got together if you want and
then there are two places where you can define their relationship. One
is a box that you can check if the couple did not marry. The other is  a
drop-down box labelled status in which you can choose one of the
default descriptions or add your own like long-term gay relationship
or whatever you like. If they married, then I would treat their status
the same way I would a hetero couple.
Hope this helps!

I forgot to add that you can change the gender of any person you've

Re: [LegacyUG] Adding homosexual partner in Legacy.

2010-01-01 Thread Deborah Trounstine
You're right, Gene! I should have experimented first before offering
advice on entering genders. Since I don't want to get into a banned
subject, I'll just repeat that I would still add them the say way I
would add any other couple and ignore the gender issues til it was time
to print a report or book at which point I would correct the hard copy
text before printing.

 Legacy will not allow two persons of the same sex to be joined as a
 couple.  One must always be listed as a male and one as a female.  This
 has been discussed to the point of having been banned in the past.
 Please search the archives for more info.

 Question from a Legacy user,

 /Can I do a Split Screen View with the Internet as one of the screens?/

 Great question! Yes, you can do this with Legacy. It sure makes it nice
 to be able to see both your Legacy data /and/ the Internet at the same
 time. Follow these step-by-step instructions.

1.
   With Legacy 6/7 open, click on the *View* menu, then click on
   *Split Screen View*.
2.
   Click *No*. Two copies of your family file are now visible,
   side-by-side.
3.
   On one of the sides, click on the *Legacy Home* tab.
4.
   In the *Address* field, type in the website you want to view and
   click *Go*. (Of course, you need to be connected to the Internet
   first.)

 You can now browse the Internet on the right side. When you locate
 information, you can copy and paste it into your Legacy file on the left
 side.



 Jane Sarles wrote:

 The split screen is a very neat feature.  I wonder if one might use it
 in a manner other than with 2 screens of Legacy?  For example, if I am
 copying information from a site of Family Search 1800 census - can I
 get the census screen up as one-half of the screen?  When I try to
 close one-half of the split screen, it just reverts to full screen
 again.  I know I can reduce the size of the legacy screen and also the
 Family Search screen, but I just wondered if there was a more elegant
 method of putting the two screens side-by-side?

Re: [LegacyUG] Basic Sources v. SourceWriter

2009-12-29 Thread Deborah Trounstine
Hi Lucy,
When I create my new SW source, I copy and paste from my original old
source. Then I copy and paste any detail from the old source into the
detail section of SW as well. Fortunately for me, I didn't know how to
use detail so I have had very little of that to move over to the new
type of source.
I don't know how the L-tools program works but I have purchased it and
plan to try it on a test source to see. Someone suggested that as a
solution.

 I see that you have the New Master Source and can delete the Old

 old source citation for each individual where you used the Old Master
 Source.  This is different for each individual and I don't see
 anything that brings that over ?

 *From:* Deborah Trounstine dtrounst...@comcast.net
 1. create your new SW source
 2. go to View  Master Lists  Source
 3. find your original old source in basic format and select it
 4. click on show list - you will see a list of all the people attached
 to that source.
 5. (very important) decide what # tag you want to use for this exercise,
 make sure it's showing in the Individual tag: box - then click Untag
 Everyone in File. This will clear all the tags of that number in your
 file.
 6. then, on the same screen, click tag everyone in list. This will tag
 all of the people that you want associated with your new SW source.
 7. close that window and get back to your main screen.
 8. go to Tools  Advanced Sourcing
 9. on the which records to use tab, select Assign to all individuals
 with tag: (whatever # tag you chose in step 6 above)
 10. on the where to assign citations tab, select Assign Citations to
 individual information and specific fields and chose which field/s
 you want this source assigned to
 11. then, click on the Source Clipboard button
 12. when that opens, you will see step 1: click here to select or
 change the master source to cite - click!
 13. highlight and select your NEW SW source that you want to assign to
 all these people, add any detail that you want and click save
 14. now you should be back at the source clipboard window - click apply
 15. all of your individuals now have the new source in the fields that
 you chose.
 If you want to no longer have any reference to your original old
 source in these files:
 16. return to View  Master Lists  Source
 17. find your old source and click show list
 18. choose delete this master source and all citations to it

 In TMG there is a capability of copying a source, which when selected would
 add a duplicate of that source to the master source list.  You can then go
 in and edit that source making it whatever you want.  For instance, I have a
 Census source for 1920, Warren Co., NJ.  I want to add a source for 1920,
 Sussex Co., NJ.  I can just copy the Warren Co. source and than edit to
 Sussex Co.  Can this be done in Legacy?  Hope I made myself clear on what
 I'm looking for.  Thanks, Dennis

[LegacyUG] How long have you used Legacy?

2009-12-20 Thread Deborah Trounstine
I mentioned in a message yesterday that I'd been using Legacy for a
couple of years - well, hold the phone!
I just ran across my first password for Deluxe Legacy v.4. I've been
using Legacy since September 2003 - for more than 6 years. Time sure
flies when you're having fun, eh?
One would think that, in all that time, I might have read the help
files, watched the training videos or even looked at the sample file.
Nope, not til this week :)
If you're new to Legacy - or even an I'll just do it intuitively
long-time user like me, my one piece of New Year's advice would be to do
all of the above and save yourself a lot of time and trouble.
Happy Holidays, Everybody!

Re: [LegacyUG] Add an Event Census to Everyone

That sounds like a really good method, Margaret. Boy, do I wish I'd

I started out with the old Generations program and then moved to Legacy

Re: [LegacyUG] Add an Event Census to Everyone

2009-12-18 Thread Deborah Trounstine
Thanks for pointing out my html text, Margaret. I hope I've fixed the
problem. If not, please let me know asap.
Helen, you've made me feel better knowing I have some company in the
just ignore that events section blues. I've never been one to read the
manual but the older I get the more it appears that it's a good idea.
Your tips on the photos are terrific. I haven't started labeling the
ones I've scanned in yet - so this gives me a chance to do it right the
first time.
I guess since I have to go through each person and move the census
anyway, it doesn't matter whether there's a global way to set up and
event (like Census) for everyone in one move.

ci...@treadles.ca wrote:
 Hi Deborah,

  The only solution I've come up with is to create an event for each
   individual called census and then assign the census records to that
  event.

   That's how I do it - now! I started off by ignoring the Events section,
 assigning all pictures of censuses, B,M  D registrations, etc.  to the
 general category for the person and all the printed census records to
 the general notes. It made everything too difficult to read and keep
 track of, so I'm in the midst of changing everything to the event
 category, no small task with over 5000 people to do.

 Most importantly though, do be careful how you name your pictures. I
 started off by naming them, for example,
   John Henry Peter Smith birth.jpg   or
   JHP Smith birth.jpg   and
   1891 census-JHP Smith.jpg

 With the huge number of Johns, Henrys and Williams on the list of
 document images, the files area was a real mess.

 What a dough-head I was! Who is the most important factor in genealogy?
 the person, of course.

 So now I'm in the process of renaming all the images as
Smith John Henry Peter birth.jpg  and
Smith John Henry Peter-1891 census.jpg

 Women are named with their maiden surname for photos taken before
 marriage, for example, a baby picture, but as an adult with their spouse
 and children, I name them   Jones Smith Mary Jane-th.jpg

 It makes it much easier when checking the files area on my hard drive,
 to see what I have and don't have for each person, but again, what a
 chore renaming and reassigning all the images.

 When I have actual photos of the person, I make a 33 dpi by 50 dpi
 cropped photo and name it - Smith John Henry Peter-th.jpg. that way, I
 can search the files for th and find out instantly who I have
 photographs for and who I don't.

Bill,
As you're fixing all your sources, are you sticking with the Basic
system or moving them to SourceWriter?
I've been converting all of mine to SW but find that I occasionally need
to do some file maintenance to keep everything working properly. Since
Legacy added SW, I'm assuming that, going forward, it will be the format
more favored. What do you think?

 If you uncheck the Show All Events you will notice that the unused ones 
 will disappear and only show the events that are in use.  I guess you can say 
 these unused items are just placeholders for new information if you need to

 AND why does my source window show:
 Marr: Flo Williams
 Had no children: Flo Williams
 Did not marry: Flo Williams
 Mar Notes: Flo Williams
 Flo Williams WAS married and had 13 children - all of the info for her
 parents, siblings, husband, marriage and kids are entered and show up on
 reports properly.
 What are these used for? Are there some sources that I should be
 assigning to these?
 I hope these questions are not too elementary for LUG. I did attempt to
 find the answers in the Help file before asking.
 Thanks!
 Deborah
