The IGI is an index (International Genealogical Index). It is not any sort
of real record - marriage, birth, or death.. You could create a Master
Source, IGI if you like, or you could just use the IGI as a pointer to
further research. I, myself, do not use the IGI as a source.

Jess - Thank you for your help. I've just looked at all my family files and
more than half I've never converted to Ver. 7. My understanding then is I
don't have to gedcom those that haven't been converted, but after I've
gedcomed the rest that are in Ver. 7 I should delete them as files?

Hi,
The starting date September 13th, there is no class on October 13, and it
ends on October 20th.
Yes, please publicize the class. If we get a large response, we may do
other sessions either then or at a later date.

If you still have your last back-up file from Version 6 you can use that to
restore Version 6.
Whether you delete files is your choice. Personally I would keep them but
perhaps rename so that it is clear they are from v7.

Other than using a word processor I cannot think of a way of doing this.

May I suggest you retain your existing data files as they are - put them
away somewhere safe, even the ones you think haven't been coverted to
the v7 format - and you work with copies of those files? Then if things

You're correct with regard to XP, but the Bibliography option does not show

Thomas - Ron and I have exchanged screen shots, which are different.
However, I believe the difference is definitely NOT Vista vs XP, but rather
whether you have the Source Writer or Basic Sourcing turned on. I use basic
sourcing and do not have a bibliography option in the Publishing Center.
I guess it's supports to do the job correcting the html/text. It is not
my job to police te the correction if the text/html correction is
needed. I do apologize for stepping out my bound.

Have been uploading all of my pictures to my website but realized the
only ones needed are the PREFERRED pictures. Is there a way to make a
list of file names that are chosen in Legacy as Preferred? Such a
list would allow uploading ONLY the preferred - saving a lot of time
and space!
Thanks
You are mixing terminology here. The IGI does NOT include the PRF and AF
databases. When you do a search at familysearch.org all the databases are
searched (unless you specify otherwise). The search result screen is broken
into sections for the different databases. The records for the IGI, PRF,
The next time a manual is written it would be nice if Bibliography were an
index item with instructions on how to be sure it's included on reports.
I'm also not certain that the word Bibliography is in the Help Screens
listing.

Nicely worked out, Elizabeth!
It had not entered my head that different options would be available for the

Thank you very much! That did the trick. I'm surprised that none of the
Legacy staffers came up with the solution to this problem.

You are absolutely right. The problem is that many people refer to records
at FamilySearch as IGI and don't distinguish between the different
databases. New researchers, especially, often don't realize they need to
