Any ideas on where the problem exist? I first thought I had been unsubscribed so I resubscribed, received the confirm subscription and then after sending it, I received the subscription confirmed mail. Still no mail after that. Thank you Connie, I just finished reading the responses to this query at the LUG archives and everyone seems to think my ISP was at fault. Now with your e-mail, it seems that Legacy was the problem.

Many of us really miss the ability to have the Source Clipboard contain multiple sources. Before Legacy removed that convenience, you were able to have multiple sources on one clipboard and enter them all at once - to one event or all.

The siblings are not included, of course, because they are not ancestors. I cannot see how this can be done in Charting, as the obvious way is to create an fdb file with just the people you want, but you would then have to create a descendant chart for multiple people and Charting cannot do this.

Then when printing a book, Aunt Ida sees everything I do, without having to print each image too. But, as it's been said many times here, everyone has their own way of doing things, so whatever works for you.. One caution though - think about it from every aspect - who is going to see your work, will they have a computer, will they be able to see the images, etc. It's a lot more work to change everything midstream than to start off doing a thorough job.

One field to put in the Master Source name and the second text field where I could copy or type the detail. Not everyone wants to write a book and in my opinion the primary reason for sources is to be able to see where the information came from and hence it's veracity.

Re: [LegacyUG] Copying people
Though an interesting discussion - this has always been possible with any WIN product. Just resize the windows and drag to where you want. I often run with 2 or even 3 windows at once! I understand the new WIN7 does the snap to 1/2 thing - but it has never been that tough.

There is a feature in Windows 7 that makes it even simpler. Just open the two windows you want side by side, say Firefox (Or IE) and Legacy. Then take the top bar of one of the windows and drag it to the left, off the screen. When you release the mouse, the window will pop to fill the left half of the screen. Do the same with the other window dragging it to the right side and viola, split screens with two different programs. If helps if you put your cursor as far left as possible before dragging left and as far right as possible before dragging right. Just makes it happen quicker without having to drag so far. Unfortunately it won't work with overlayed windows within Legacy. For example, if you drag a source window to the left, it will fill half the screen, but you can't drag the underlying family screen to the right. This is a Windows issue, not a Legacy issue. But, there is a work around. If you start with the family window and drag it right, then open, say, the event window and drag it left, you can see both windows at the same time. You can only edit in the event window, however. You can open additional windows from the left window (in our example), say the source window, and keep dragging them left and work on the topmost window while still seeing the family window on the right. You still have to close all the windows individually just as you normally do. (A close and save all would sure be nice...) How do you get back from this split screen view? Click on the Maximize button in the upper right (looks like a square) to make the window full screen, then click on the Restore Down button (same button, but this time it looks like two pieces of paper on top of each other). You are now back to where you started. Sounds a little complicated, but once you've done it a time or two it's pretty easy. -- Jim Walton ...probe the past carefully and report it as it was, not as I wish it were From Evidence Explained by Elizabeth Shown Mills Legacy User Group guidelines: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/Etiquette.asp Archived messages after Nov. 21 2009: http://www.mail-archive.com/legacyusergroup@legacyusers.com/ Archived messages from old mail server - before Nov. 21 2009: http://www.mail-archive.com/legacyusergr...@legacyfamilytree.com/ Online technical support: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/Help.asp To unsubscribe: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/LegacyLists.asp Legacy User Group guidelines: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/Etiquette.asp Archived messages after Nov. 21 2009: http://www.mail-archive.com/legacyusergroup@legacyusers.com/ Archived messages from old mail server - before Nov. 21 2009: http://www.mail-archive.com/legacyusergr...@legacyfamilytree.com/ Online technical support: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/Help.asp To unsubscribe: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/LegacyLists.asp
Re: [LegacyUG] Basic Sources v. SourceWriter
I still keep them - in fact I even enter new ones in my old format - I find the output in reports more to my liking and think they are quite good at sending anyone wishing to check them to the correct source - in my mind the only requirement for a source.

I do have a question about what you say about adding people (who may or may not be connected to your tree (I'm assuming what you call tree is what Legacy calls family file and I think of as data base) Do you have a separate tree for each person, or do you have one tree that is for all such people? I do like Robert's idea of having one pristine and documented tree/family file, as well. I am just not sure how I would document those I KNOW from my own family experience, are legitimate family members, but have never gotten official documentation such as birth certificates, etc. For ex.: I knew my Aunt Zua all my life, and know her to be my grandfather's sister, so I have never spent time tracking down official proof of her parentage. (Robert - do you accept personal family knowledge as a documentation?) I asked for the training tapes of Legacy for Christmas, so perhaps later I won't have so many newbie questions (I have actually used Legacy for a year or more).

Some will only make it as far as in research notes, or will be added in their own tree which is NOT linked my main family tree. Those people are ones who reoccur in my research but I have NO IDEA how they might connect to my family line… But then there are others I’ll find who I’m family certain they do belong, but have not found concrete proof… Those I handle a bit differently as explained below: I link them in my main database where I believe they fit, adding a notation in the _Title Prefix_ placeholder (this field is normally reserved for titles such as Sir, Knight, King etc.; First name: John Last name: Powers Title Prefix: [possible son of Adam] -or- First name: Jane Last name: Smith Title Prefix: [possible wife of Adam Powers] And so on… It is easy via the search function to locate anyone with a '[' in their name. ( SearchFindIndividualPrefixContains[ ) Linking them allows me to see at a glance where I ‘think’ they belong within the tree structure, yet at the same time making it clear (as it will show up as part of their name) the relationship is unproven requiring more research to confirm. I have found it the easiest way for me to keep track of them, whereas keeping them only in notes or in a separate tree or database I’d likely forget all about them for the most part… I have also used this same tactic (adding a note to the Title Prefix spot to families I have researched and determined are not part of my family line even though they are living in the same area; same timeframe and with same surname etc. They will be entered into their own tree, not connected to my family tree as; First name: Jane Last name: Smith Prefix Title: [NOT my family line] This allows this Jane Smith to sort with the ‘other’ Jane Smith’s and yet will be easily recognizable that this particular Jane is not part of my family line. It also keeps me aware of who I have researched and determined to NOT be my family – very helpful with some of my families who have common surnames such as Smith, Williams, Gibson etc. Not saying this is the BEST way, but works well for me. I hope I've explained my method clearly.

Re: [LegacyUG] Add an Event Census to Everyone
I have an event for each census (1880, 1900, 1910, etc) and include (in the description) The household headed by... and include everything for the head of the household. I then use the event clipboard to put it with the others in the family. Each is then a complete record (but I only had to enter it once). I have wondered if those other than the head of household should (maybe) have only their part of the citation for the whole family -- like Shown as a student, age 14 in the household of John Smith. rather than the whole thing...
