I personally should not save importent data as a back up on a USB drive,
and especially not on an NTFS formatted such.
I changed once PC and moved several 100 photos with a portable USB HDD and
many photos were damaged, some were completely destroyed, others had
strokes and lines, or were discolor
I am wondering why a GEDCOM produced with Legacy 8 using the Gedcom 5.5
option does not use the GEDCOM tag ALIA for Alternate names?
Rather the GEDCOM file reads like this for the alternate name:
1 NAME Boy /Thornton/
2 GIVN Boy
2 SURN Thornton
This is the exact same format used for the main name
I frequently use something called printfriendly to print things I want on
the internet. I am able to delete anything that I don't want, choose which
pictures I want, etc and then choose to print or download as a pdf file.
I've found it very easy to work with. Just go to www.printfriendly.com

Why would you not scan the will and put it in a folder. Use the add media/
document, to record where you have it stored. You can leave a "note" or
create an event with the most pertinent data from the will.

Yes, Sherry, I do that too! I also find that I cannot print anything from the web as I want it. I like to remove all the ads and extraneous things from the pages, and re-format to suit me (and make it fit on one page, if possible). I will often use Word (so I can include pics) or sometimes Wordpad,
I meant to say, for direct ancestors, I include the text in the Will event
notes; same for codicils, in the Will codicil event notes. I do not put it in
the general notes.

Including it in the event notes takes up more room in your reports. If you want
cleaner, shorter reports, include it in the source detail.

Thank you so much Mike. I reformatted the thumb drive with NTFS and it worked

DUH - I didn't even think of that - thanks. I've done that for web
pages before (copy/paste them into MS Word) so I can control the page
breaks, formatting, and such. I guess since his document is within
