Re: [LegacyUG] Event "location" somehow got changed

[Howard Cady]

Paula,  My Legacy Option settings, the use of Geo Mapping and access to 
FamilySearch make it easy to show that Legacy has several paths where the 
internal workings of Legacy perform an automatic “combine/combine with” 
function that ignores the values for Latitude and Longitude. Perhaps the 
easiest way to see this function in action is to find a new family using the 
FamilySearch feature of Legacy that has children born in the same location.  
Use the “this is the same Person as mine” and “Share” option to download to 
your file one of the individuals and the event using a location of interest.  
Then go to your Master Location list and the location of interest.  Look at the 
list of individuals using that location. Go back to FamilySearch and download 
(share) another person and event that uses the same location.  Return to your 
Master Location list and the location of interest.  The list of users of the 
location now includes the newly downloaded individual (an automatic 
“combine/combine with” for the location).
Similarly editing the names for a location from the Master Location list so 
that saved location names are now identical with those of an already existing 
location will cause a location merger even though the Latitude and/or Longitude 
differ.  The new Lat/Long are discarded in favor of the older existing ones.
If you desire more information, let’s correspond directly – off list.

Bill,  I know about the one where I select the two locations to be combined, 
but this thread made it sound like there was some internal logic that 
automatically combined locations.  Or maybe I was reading it too late at night?

[William Hoff]

I've looked for a duplicate location search just last night. Could not find so 
went thru manually. I'm certain to have missed some. Tried verifying as I went 
but then lost the map. Some days it goes not pay to get up.

RE: [LegacyUG] Event "location" somehow got changed

[Michele/Support]

Gene,

It is okay to ask tech support questions on the list because the answer might 
be a simple one liner but anything that might require some back and forth 
dialog is better handled by sending a message to supp...@legacyfamilytree.com 
<mailto:supp...@legacyfamilytree.com>  :)  Also, if you ask something on the 
list and it doesn’t get answered then send an email.  Either we didn’t see the 
question because we aren’t monitoring the list 24/7 or it is too involved to 
try and answer here.

RE: [LegacyUG] Event "location" somehow got changed

[Michele/Support]

Brian,

I appreciate this post.  This is exactly what is happening.  Gene also sent a 
ticket in so we are working on it behind the scenes.  Sometimes when you think 
Support isn’t paying attention to the LUG list they really are.  One thing 
people don’t realize is that not all of the techs watch the list and those that 
do only watch when they can.  Our main job is answering the support tickets 
that come in.  The LUG list’s main purpose is so that Legacy users can talk to 
each other answering questions about how the program works, tips, tricks, hints 
etc.  It isn’t a forum to handle complicated tech support issues.

I would suspect that as we read these messages, several of Millenia’s support 
people are banging away at their keyboards trying to see if they can recreate 
the issue. If they can’t recreate the issue, then they’re probably trying to 
figure out what user errors would cause the problem. When one support persons 
thinks they’ve got it figured out, they’ll probably forward the resolution to 
another support person to confirm the problem and proposed solution. So let’s 
give them some time and see what happens.

I had this happen the other day but caught it straight away and wasn't sure 
what I'd done. Just one location changed to a new location I'd just entered. 
The new location was a birth location. The location that changed was the death 
and burial location for that person and for everyone using that death location. 
I know I made a mess of the new entry and edited it a few times as I found out 
more about the location. I was also having some computer problems and Legacy 
crashed a couple of times so I put it down to that.

I've now restored an earlier image of my computer and all seems well again.

Re: [LegacyUG] Event "location" somehow got changed

[Howard Cady]

I have noticed that when editing locations that my current option selections 
and version of Legacy V8 (the latest) has an automatic internal 
“combine/combine with” feature that sometimes creates unexpected results.  I 
have not determined what particular set of matches causes this automatic 
combine, but I am not using the conventional US 4 place location convention and 
I do know that mismatched lat/long entries do not prevent combining.  This 
might be the cause for others to have unexpected event changes.

Re: [LegacyUG] Event "location" somehow got changed

[Jess]

I had this issue as well, and honestly thought I was crazy! I had at least a 
dozen people with burial location of Bellvieu Cemetery, Benton, Bossier Parish, 
Louisiana. I know this because I was going from a book and can source every one 
(it is a family plot). I went to print a list so To make sure I photographed 
all of them when I went, and it only gave me three people.

I had this happen the other day but caught it straight away and wasn't sure 
what I'd done. Just one location changed to a new location I'd just entered. 
The new location was a birth location. The location that changed was the death 
and burial location for that person and for everyone using that death location. 
I know I made a mess of the new entry and edited it a few times as I found out 
more about the location. I was also having some computer problems and Legacy 
crashed a couple of times so I put it down to that.

I've now restored an earlier image of my computer and all seems well again.

No, no clean-up, no merging, nothing like that.  In fact, I've been working
on a totally different Legacy file for the past month.

Re: [LegacyUG] Event "location" somehow got changed

[Stratton]

When it was suggested here to clean up the locations, I started to do
this. By merging some locations, I merged two different cities together.
What a mess, 71 people from one city to another city of 3 people. What
to do? I shut down "Carbonite", but it is so fast so that did not work.
Now what? I had BACKED UP the file 4 days earlier. So open that up, look
for the 3 people. Get that information. Change the city for the 74
people to the original city for the 71. Create a new location file for
the 3 people. Delete them from the 74.  Bottom line: Be careful.  And
definitely MAKE A BACKUP OFTEN. I must tell myself that over and over
and over ..

[LegacyUG] Event "location" somehow got changed

[Gene Wheeler]

I'm using the current release of v.8 and have been for months.  I just
happened to notice that the location for the burial of both of my parents
was changed to the same incorrect cemetery.  The correct cemetery has been
part of their records for years, and now, somehow, they BOTH got changed to
the same incorrect cemetery.  Any idea what gives?  It makes me wonder how
many other records got changed without my knowledge.
