Yes it does work nicely that way - I use it all the time Neil Bell On 4/9/2012 15:45, Kathy Meyer wrote: yes. I believe Sherry answered that awhile backsomeone did anyway. I think what they did was to open them both and then grab the edge and stretch it over the two screens.

[LegacyUG] Notes formatting
Many times when you GEDCOM in data from another genealogy program the notes field will not end with the appropriate period (.). Some programs automatically add a period at the end of a note when generating output reports. Legacy does not do this. One can go into the sentence definitions edit and add the period after the notes field. However for notes that do contain the period this would result in two periods at the end of the sentence. I don't _think_ it would be very difficult to have the option of adding a period when one is not present in the original note. Obviously I could be wrong here about the difficulty of doing this but I do strongly feel this is highly desirable. Perhaps an optional feature to add a period could be considered much like the existing option concerning spaces following commas in all location fields. The enforced period would make narrative reports so much easier to read! Neil Bell ( a retired programmer!)

[LegacyUG] Pre-1850 US Census data
I am sure most all USA researchers know that for census records prior to 1850, the only individual identified by name is the head of household. Other family members are only specified by approximate age and the number of people in that age range. So my question is: if you are fairly certain that a female in the 1840 census in an age range is the same as the spouse specified in the 1850 census and the ages are consistent, do you record that 1840 census record in the spouse record? Obviously since you cannot be _certain_ of that fact, what do you do? I am curious as to other people's opinion.
