Thank you, Alan. However, does this only affect the order in printing out reports? I tried this but it does not bring my #1 choice up to the AKA line on the family view. The AKA I first entered is still the one that shows up there. Georgia Yes, it is possible to arrange AKA names

[LegacyUG] Date Calculator

2008-06-25 Thread Georgia
I am still using Version 6. I just discovered that the date calculator will not accept a death date of 29 February. Does Legacy not believe in leap year? I kept thinking I was entering the data incorrectly but realized that 29 February was unusual. When I tried 28 February, all was well.

My question is how do you decide which of the various names one has is in the main entry and which are AKAs if you did not know the person? I have relatives who sometimes use a first name, sometimes a middle name (in the census) and I do not have birth records for them. I also have a great
