Thank you Linda, I agree with all that you said. If you think this is bad, you should join the "RootsMagic 8 " groups on Facebook. WOW !!!

Bottom line - if Legacy doesn't suit your needs find another program that does, rather than complaining endlessly!!

Send your needs to support, request, or wherever it should go. The purpose of this mailing list is to help others learn to USE legacy as it is. This used to be a very active list with lots of "how do I..." and I learned a lot about the program from this list. I am not a fan of social media and do not like Facebook. And that is my choice. For me, and I would guess the majority of the users, Legacy does exactly what they want; and perhaps even more, because they haven't yet learned all the capabilities of the program. It is a wonderful genealogy database program,and it is reasonably priced. It comes in , what?, about 35 languages and I'm sorry if your ancestors come from one of those area with the unique character languages. There are other options for you - use those programs and then complain to those companies about their inadequacies. Most of us don't want/need a program that prints great, great aunt Mary Elizabeth's spouse's parents and all his siblings and their children in reports. Please go to the trees online that are trying to get the universe all in one place. Or, open Word in the keyboard language of choice and write your own reports. You could even use a typewriter with the manual special language keys used like for physics or geometry equations back in the 50's and 60's. I am not a name and BMD collector. I do family history, and Legacy allows me to fill in all those events of a person's life; a place to keep the stories; the sourcing options are extensive. I can add all kinds of pictures and videos. I love the chronology report to see where I'm still needing to do research on a person. It's perfect for getting to know your ancestors. I even use the Research Guidance! What I like best about Legacy is: I still get to do the thinking - there are so many options on every screen. The program and computer do not make those decisions for me. I am responsible for the data, I am responsible for the backups, how many, and where they are. So, for the sake of the majority of Legacy users, please, stop this constant whining.
