[LegacyUG] Setting Birth Location for tagged individuals

Hi I was wondering if anybody can help with this problem. I have a large number of tagged individuals that I want to set their birth location to be the same. At the moment I cannot see any way to quickly do this other than editing each individual separately. I am able to use Microsoft Access and

Re: [LegacyUG] Former generations users

Hi Judy, I used Generations EasyTree for many years before switching to Legacy 7. One reason I chose Legacy was its similarites to Generations in how data is presented (the interface.) But Legacy has so many wonderful features that Generations never had! The biggest tip I have for you is to l

RE: [LegacyUG] Computer Crash - Lost Legacy Program:

That's a coincidence! My main data drive crashed Monday. Fortunately, I keep an external drive exclusively for old and new data where I also keep my current genealogy data in case the main data drive dies. I've been down this road so many times before because you can't trust computers. I would

Hi Jackie, Welcome to the list. Yes, I switched from TMG 7 to Legacy 7.0 Deluxe, and I would definitely "NOT" switch back to TMG for a variety of reasons. I had been using TMG for about 15 years. Although it is a daunting task to clean up all the records, the finished product is well worth the ef

[LegacyUG] Legacy vs. TMG

Please don't boo me off the list yet. I used Legacy 4 and liked it. Then I switched to TMG because at that time I thought it was better. I took a look at Legacy 7 last night, and am thinking of switching back. Except for all the data entry work. I do realize I can import some, but there will st

[LegacyUG] Event Narrative Format

When printing a Descendant Report, I have the Events (with custom Notes) for an Individual listed as bullets or numbered. What's odd is that there is a blank space between the events *except* for the first two events in the list. I know there have been "format" problems if there are carriage re

Hi Ellen, I find the best way to e-mail Legacy reports is to print the desired report as a PDF file, saving it to disk, and then attaching the generated PDF file to my outgoing email. Garry -Original Message- From: k...@legacyfamilytree.com [mailto:k...@legacyfamilytree.com] On Behalf O
