Re: [LegacyUG] miss labeling of individual
Cathy I think that is the magic answer….namely, clearing relationships before re-setting them. I just did my test child once again with an unknown gender. The part that I don’t like is that when viewing this unknown gender child in Family View, he/she defaults to being called a SON by Legacy. Well, what else could you call a child with an unknown gender. It’s either SON or DAUGHTER and one or the other is going to be wrong. The programmers made their 50-50 choice and call he/she a SON. I then cleared relationship and re-set them once again. No change as expected to the unknown gender child but still called a son. I then changed the gender from unknown to FEMALE. Now here is where the OPs problem comes up. If you only run re-set relationships without clearing them first, this daughter will remain being called a SON. However, if you clear relationships first and then re-set the relationships, then the daughter is now correctly identified as DAUGHTER in the Family View. So you are correct. You must/should clear relationships first. I have to admit that I have been very lax in this. Probably because the time involved in re-setting relationships on my very large file takes so long that I didn’t want to involve another step in the process. But clearing relationships takes only a second or two. I don’t think there is any bug in the program. It’s just that when users cut corners in using the tools of the programs, then the results can be unpredictable. Memo to self / Clear and then re-set !

Re: [LegacyUG] miss labeling of individual
I think you stumbled upon a slight bug...at least in my opinion. I started by adding an unknown gender child to myself. Strangely, Legacy shows the relationship to me as a SON as I view the unknown gender child. So that's the start of the bug. I then changed the gender from unknown to FEMALE. That person continued to be shown as a SON (or an Uncle in the case of your example). I even reset the relationships and it had no effect. The female child remained listed as my SON. That is a bug.

Re: [LegacyUG] miss labeling of individual
Hi Donna, One of the things that Legacy used to do with unknown gender is to put the name in italics. I am not sure if Legacy 8 does it, but you might want to take a look at your index and see if there are any names in italics. Glad that you got it fixed though.

In family view, is the radio button selected for male or female. If male, click on female radio button. On 9/2/2016 4:20 PM, Brian Kelly wrote: Have you recalculated the relationships?

Re: [LegacyUG] miss labeling of individual
This might be a place where "Check/Repair" is in order. Do a backup first. As Mike has indicated, run set relationships after you first do a clear relationships.

Re: [LegacyUG] miss labeling of individual
Hi Donna, Here is what Legacy has to say: [From the Legacy Help File] Changing Gender If you find that you need to change the gender of an individual, (if, for example you or someone else set it incorrectly when entering the individual) it is easy to do. The procedure, however, depends on the situation: If the individual has not yet been linked to a spouse, simply open the Information screen for the person and change the gender by choosing the appropriate M or F setting just to the right of the Title Suffix field. If you have already linked the individual to a spouse, you can swap the genders of the two individuals by choosing Swap Husband and Wife from the Edit tab of the Ribbon bar while the desired couple are displayed as the main Husband and Wife on the Family View or highlighted on the Pedigree, Descendant, or Index View. (If either the male or the female is linked to more than one partner, the swap cannot be made. You will have to unlink the other partner(s), swap the gender of the current couple, and then make the necessary gender changes to the other partners before linking them back in.) I hope this helps, Martha -- LegacyUserGroup mailing list LegacyUserGroup@legacyusers.com To manage your subscription and unsubscribe http://legacyusers.com/mailman/listinfo/legacyusergroup_legacyusers.com Archives at: http://www.mail-archive.com/legacyusergroup@legacyusers.com/

Re: [LegacyUG] miss labeling of individual
Hi Donna, When you look at the person in the 'family view' is she on the right side? If you inadvertently added her in on the left side, Legacy would automatically assume she was a male. If so, I think you can unlink her from the family as a son, then relink her as a daughter.
