You can get the special characters for your language and store up to 8 in the special bar on most input screens, the one on the main is to the left of the Events/Facts box, with a blue box on it. Since My Scandinavian, Spanish and German locations all use special characters, I know once you

Paul, You do not say which o/s, if you are using Vista then the update Jet-pack bit should not apply. If you go to the Legacy Home Tab (in your program) at the top right you will see an Options tab, you can use this to stop Legacy trying to go on-line unless you specifically give it

I am glad I could help, but I do not use 'Charting' at present. You might create a new file with 'French' only and open LC with that, but it may be an unthought of idea, which becomes a bug? Rich in LA CA --- On Mon, 11/3/08, Lucy Shore [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: From: Lucy Shore [EMAIL

Another place to delete files is in the LegacyUG emails. Since they are available at the Archives, there's little reason for most people to keep the 100,000 messages that may be generated in a year (based on about 1200 messages a month in recent months). John My laptop is getting full and I'm

Thank you for your all of your input. I don't work on my husband's side too much..so there isn't all that much information. What gets confusing is the fact that our last name is Johnson..and my mom's Maiden name is Johnson. So she went from Johnson to Jacobs and I went from Jacobs

Note that you can color code a selected person's grandparent lines, so you're watching (for example) blue for your paternal grandfather, pink for paternal grandmother, etc. This is much easier to follow than trying to mentally sort multiple lines with the same last name. John Thank you for
