Charles, A couple of simple things to do to make sure that Legacy can see the Geo Location Database. Close Legacy, reboot your computer, then start Legacy back up. If that doesn't work reinstall the current update from here. http://www.legacyfamilytree.com/DownloadUpdate.asp Michele

Legacy's date field is just that - for dates. You can include the time in the date field but you will get warnings about potential problems and age calculations can't be done. I usually recommend adding the time to the Notes for the event. Sincerely, Sherry Technical Support Legacy Family Tree

Pat, I have a lot of births and deaths in Germany and their birth and death certificates include the time. I think it is interesting information so I definitely want to include it. I use the Birth Notes and the Death Notes to record this. To the right of the birth or death field you will

I use the Medical tab in notes to record such information, as well as physical description, when available, and any medical conditions noted in census or other documents. On 11/30/2014 9:59 AM, Patrice Maza wrote: Hello from France, I use legacy 8 from a gedcom created by Heredis. The time

Hi Pat, There isn't a particular field for Time of Birth or Death in Legacy. You may want to submit a suggestion for it to be added. (See the Home Tab in Legacy for a link to submit suggestions). When known, which I don't for most people, I put it in the Birth or the Death Notes which are

And then there are, for Christians, First Communion, Confirmation, etc. But these, like the others, are probably better handled by creating an Event. Ordination, for instance, is an adult rite, which is included in the Legacy list of Events. Marriage is too, and, although important for

Hi Syble, Risking answering you again. If you make an event for DNA match using the fields as you like, then you can choose to show that Event on Family View. I don't have any DNA data but I can imagine I'd use the Description field to say Matched to X (line). Will that work for you? Cathy

Syble, I am curious. What exactly would you like to see on the Individual’s Information screen and Family View DNA wise? yDNA and mtDNA value sets are much too long to try and display there. Are you wanting to see the haplogroup? If you are wanting the haplogroup you could easily enter it

Dawn, I've migrated from TMG to Legacy over the past few months. I looked at the same programs that you have, but chose Legacy as my main program. At first the lack of flags (Legacy calls these tagging) and the lack of accent colors bothered me. While improved tagging would be great, I no
