Ron I smiled when I read your email and Dick's. I go back a ways too---1982, Family Roots, Apple IIc. Before that it was exclusively stubby pencil and paper. The 1982 days saw the barest of bones for a computer genealogy program---but, oh my, it was SO much better than that ole stubby pencil. I

: [LegacyUG] Legacy - What is it for? I think it would be good to incorporate X10 capabilities in Legacy so that when you're working in the wee hours, the lights could be turned on in the den and the coffee maker could be turned on to keep me awake. It might also be good to be able to program m

I use Legacy as a tool. It records my data. It does not do everything I want but that is OK and I do not have a problem with that. I just use other tools that suit me. The impression I have is that Legacy is in danger of becoming similar to a Swiss army style knife that has so many blades and

I too support Legacy remaining a pure genealogy program. However for me that includes a) the ability to export its reports to a wordprocessor for further editing (which it does) b) and - because it has become a accepted part of genealogy programs - much improved charting capability Jeff -

I agree too. However for me that (along with your "includes") would include: a) web page generation (needs some improvement). b) single event attached to multiple individuals. c) separate the program files from the user files. i.e. put the program in "Program Files" and put the user files in "My

a) web page generation (needs some improvement). Agree, but I haven't found any family history program that gets it right (which is why I'm writing my own) b) single event attached to multiple individuals. Yes - one of the features I miss from my time using TMG c) separate the program files fr
