[LegacyUG] Mapping Gedcom Tags to Legacy

Greetings all, I have been working with exporting Gedcoms of late and I have examined the Help file regarding Gedcom tags. I have been unable to find what I am looking for. I am wanting to match (map) the Gedcom V5.5 tags to where they are found in Legacy. Many instances are obvious such as, B

Stuart, I would have thought NATU would be an indication if a child was Natural or not, but even though I do have plenty of Natural relationships in my database, I don't have that code in my GEDCOM or LEGACY export file. None of those four codes appear in my export file. ASSO seems like a witness

IMHO, based on what you said ASSO is, Legacy does not have a parallel name. Legacy does not have an illegitimate tag, because "that is the parents fault?", not the kids. That title matters more to church and legal groups. If you export to Legacy including those tags, they will be created as tags in

Hi Rich, I'm not sure if you are talking about the NATU tag when you mentioned illegitimate or if you were referring to LEGA, but I think NATU is what you are referring to. There was a thread I commented on a few months ago where I mentioned all of the people in my GEDCOM were imported with the ch

Debbie, Stuart wanted to know the Legacy equivalents of these tags. He seemed to know what they were in GEDCOM format. I think the programmers will have to answer, if no one else has studied them and can comment on their findings. Susan On 12/18/06, Debbie Blanton McCoy <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote

Susan, Did you look at the page Debbie sent? It explains what the tags mean - no more guessing and getting it wrong. No need to get the information from the programmers. It's clear that 3 of them in Legacy are possible Events NATU - Naturalisation MARL - Marriage Licence LEGA - Legatee of will

Geetings again all, Susan, you are right. I am aware of all the Gedcom tags and I wasn't expecting an answer on what the tags should contain. My question is, has anyone mapped, that is taken all of the Gedcom V5.5 Standard tags and linked them to the appropriate data entry point in Legacy. I

Hi Stuart, If they're not in the Event list, make them. You can make them during the Gedcom import. Start the import and then click Customise. On the Items to Import screen that comes up - read the Help page under the Help button. This tells you how to use: Map to a Recognised Tag button and Cre

Cathy, Thank you for your quick reply. My OP clearly sought assistance with exporting to Gedcom V5.5, not importing. Since your reply, I have checked again the tags available for export using the Legacy setting for V5.5. None of these tags, and these are only examples of many, are not included

Sorry Stuart, You'll have to ask someone else. I know very little about Gedcom and currently little interest in them. I assumed since you had various tags, you had the Gedcom. If you are trying to make a Gedcom, I have no idea. I don't quite understand making a Gedcom with information you haven'

remember Gedcom, and especially 5.5 is a program created by committee. They did a good job, but I don't know if there is even a plan to update the current version. I don't edit them now. I just wanted to show how my custom tags come out in G55. Many programs allegedly accept some of them and a few
