drag the corners to whatever size you want, then hold down the Ctrl key

The first time you open Legacy after deleting the file, it will open small.
When you resize the windows, then close Legacy, the next time it should open
to the size it was when you closed it.
Thanks for using Legacy.

Thank you Jim. I regretted the tone of my message after I sent it. My
apologys to the group. I also wondered after I sent it if perhaps earlier
versions (than XP) of windows worked differently regarding remembering the
variable size settings at last exit.

When you are entering a place and the window "County Didn't Exist Then" pops
up, what do you do next?
Example: An event happened in 1640 in Salem, Essex, Massachusetts, USA
Essex County didn't exist until 1643. The State of Massachusetts didn't exist
until 1788.
Would I put:
Salem Settlement,
It has always been my understanding that you should record the location
as it existed at the time of the event, in this case, Massachusetts Bay
Colony.

I agree, but I have never seen where someone uses the colonial place naming.
All the place naming that I have seen for colonial times use town, county,
state, USA.
Can someone show me a website that use the colonial names for places?

Since I don't use the "short" placename I have long considered using "short"
placename for "at the time of the event" and "long" placename for the
current location. Wouldn't it be great if Legacy provided this option or
allowed user to relable "long and short" to "then and now"?
