RE: [LegacyUG] Playing documents
Bryan, You CAN hit options then play to get the document to open but why not just double click the document? I have a lot of pdfs attached to my file and I just double click.

RE: [LegacyUG] Playing documents
“PLAY” sounds OK with me, if you think about what “Media” was (is) when this option was first added. This option when first added to most family research programs was for audio and video, so those one needed to play them.

Fits right in with the concept that under Windows you have to click on the START button in order to SHUT-DOWN.

Re: [LegacyUG] Playing documents
Or going to the Google Play Store for ebooks or productivity apps. It seems play is becoming the term for all media, even text documents. --Charlene On Sat, Dec 7, 2013 at 11:08 AM, Brian L.

Re: [LegacyUG] Playing documents
Bryan, That doesn't seem normal. Are you attaching a Doc or Pdf as a Picture, Sound, Video or File? What is your Windows default program to open Doc? PDF? Legacy 7 or 8? -- Richard Van Wasshnova On Fri, Dec 6, 2013 at 7:07 PM, Bryan Pratt brya...@slingshot.co.nz wrote: I always found it odd that if you add a DOC or PDF or similar to an individual’s info or event page that you had to click PLAY for it to open.

Re: [LegacyUG] Playing documents
It is perhaps too early in the morning for me, but I am having trouble following this thread! play seems reasonable to me since Legacy cannot open these files they need e.g. Adobe,.Office etc. I.e. additional software.
