Re: [LegacyUG] Repeating info & Direct Line
Or even easier if the data is the same for the same field that was used for the previous person entered, then just left-click on the word label for that field and it will enter the info that was used before. If it is different data but used previously then you can do the Right-click to get the menu. The left-click will work for other screens as well such as the events screen, which comes in handy when you are doing multiple entries of the same event for different people. Open the events window and then just left- click the word label for each field and it will use the previous events data for the same field.

Have a look in the Help file under Shortcut keys - perhaps the program already has the options you are looking for.

Re: [LegacyUG] Repeating info & Direct Line
Gwen, if you are using the Deluxe edition, you can copy and paste lots of things with the clipboard. Do you know how to use that feature? It's not an F key. It's the white block with the up arrow in it.

Re: [LegacyUG] Repeating info & Direct Line
Gwen, When you say "Family page," do you mean the "Individual Information" window which opens from the Family View? If so and if the location is in the same field for the second family member as it was in the first, then you can click on the button "Repeat" found just above the "Exclude from Potential problems" button on the "Individual Information" window. This will repeat the same information found in the same field from the previous person's window.

Re: [LegacyUG] Repeating info & Direct Line
Highlight the location you want to use again, right click and choose 'copy', then you can right click and choose 'paste' whenever you find another place that the locations needs to go. It will stay in your clipboard until you 'copy' something different to the clipboard. I don't know if you could use the F keys for that; I imagine that it is possible but I think it would be more work than doing it this way.

I know you can start typing but often you might have several St George address's and need to go through them all to get the right one. Also is it possible to get a printout for a Direct line of a family only so I can sift out the ones I need info for. I am finding it hard to do this and wonder if there is an easy route for it.
