RE: [LegacyUG] queston re: RIN numbers number of individuals
Hello Laird I have successfully downloaded the latest version of Legacy7.5 and that seemed to fix the problem. Number of individuals now equals the highest RIN. Thank you!

RE: [LegacyUG] queston re: RIN numbers number of individuals
Hi Norma, It seems odd if your largest RIN is smaller than the number of people. I really don’t see that actually happening as each person has to be assigned a number. If the number is larger than the number of people – that is normal, particularly after some adding, deleting, merging people. The RIN’s are not necessarily in a complete sequence. My highest RIN is 446678059 – I have quite a large file, but not that big J I just renumbered the RIN’s in my file and now the highest number is just over my name count. If you don’t use the RIN’s for another purpose, then you could try the renumbering as well, but I don’t think there is anything to worry about.

And Like Cathy said make sure ALTERNATE and MARRIED names are not ticked under the name list OPTIONS. My name list has 18,767 individuals and HelpGeneral Information matches. I do have a lot of unused RINs so my highest RIN is 18,843, 76 higher. Of course I have the reverse of you. I don't see how you can have more people than RINs. In the name list, click the # button at the top left of window to sort the list and then scroll down to the bottom of the list and verify the highest RIN is lower than the other counts.

Re: [LegacyUG] queston re: RIN numbers number of individuals
Hi Norma, One explanation could be where you are getting the number of individuals from. If from the Name List, if you include alternate or married names, the number reported is really the number of names in the list and not the number of people in the database. Otherwise, you might want to try File - File Maintenance - Check/Repair A person can't be entered twice and have the same RIN. The duplicate would have another RIN. The RIN is the computer's way of keeping track of a particular record/person.
