Re: [LegacyUG] Geo Database
No. It should be accessible to anyone who has the link. I use this all the time, when I want to share documents, photos, etc with someone else. It's better than attaching a file to an email, as it keeps the size of the email down while still giving the recipient access to the file. You can share one file, or you can share a whole folder, with just the one link. This article tells you more about it - https://www.dropbox.com/help/20?path=sharing_files_and_folders Click on the link, and when the page comes up in your browser you should see a button to download the file. Click on that, tell your computer where to put the file (into your Downloads folder is fine unless you want to put it somewhere else for your own reasons). Then carry on with the install as instructed originally (run/execute the file, I expect). Hope this helps. :-) Wendy Margaret Gagliardi wrote on 7/03/2015 16:24: Do I have to join Dropbox in order to get it?

Re: [LegacyUG] Geo-Database
It took a bit of work but I put the Geo database I have used for years with all my alterations into Legacy 8, and it works perfectly. The Geo-base that comes with 8 (you must download) is HUGE and full of places that you don't want. I simply removed the new Geo-database and copy-pasted all my old files. I have windows 7 but this works for earlier versions Hit windows Key + E to open explorer (you can use search for Geo-database to find it or MyDocuments]\Legacy Family Tree\_AppData\Misc Then replace the database On 2/7/2014 7:02 AM, Dale McIntyre wrote: I use the Geo-database from Legacy version 6.0.0.118.

Re: [LegacyUG] Geo Database error
Randy, I am sure that there are lots of errors like this. Legacy obtained the GeoDB sources a number of years ago and they were the best available at the time. Think of the data as Modern, semi-historical. All of the English towns seem to be listed with their more or less historical counties, even if those counties no longer technically exist. Also, know that you will see spelling differences between Bing, GeoDB, and Wikipedia. Sometimes, you just need to accept that the location data you get is just clues and you have to research the locations a bit yourself. My Australian friends like to tell me that Australia does not have counties. Yet, I do find historical records to counties or districts. Adelaide is a city, but it is also a district that encompasses lots of town, villages, neighborhoods. Sometimes you just have to be flexible... What is important is that you create your own standard for how locations are to be represented in your family files and then stick to it. Do not jump around calling the same place by a dozen different ways or spellings. john. At 03:32 PM 12/3/2013, Randy Clark wrote: Vaasa was in Länsi-Suomi province Finland.

Thanks Russ. Works a treat. I should have read the manual! Terry From: rgstrongge...@gmail.com To: LegacyUserGroup@LegacyUsers.com Subject: Re: [LegacyUG] Geo database Date: Fri, 1 Feb 2013 02:27:14 -0500 Terry, Have you gone to OptionsCustomizeOther tab and at the bottom is a button Database Maintenance under Geo Location? When you click on it a window will open showing the path and instructions on how to create it and what you have to do. Basically if you purchased the Download Only version of Legacy then you must Create it and then import it into the database you create. If you have the CD-ROM version then follow those instructions.
