This is true. However, the programmers add an option under Options > CUstomize > Data Entry to deselect automatic sorting of Spouses, Children and/or Events. There's a link underneath that customize option to explain how the new sorting works. We're hoping for a secondary sort in the future. Si

On the face this sounds really good. But concerning the auto-sorting: I sometimes like to sort my events by the event type first, then by date. For example, I'll put all of the EDUCATION ones together, and all of the RESIDENCE ones together, etc. This can help me to find gaps in information. Wi

Great things are afoot! Will Legacy 8 override/replace Legacy 7? Will there be any way to compare 8 & 7 before making the conversion? For example - can 7 & 8 both be installed on the same computer or will there be a way to use a split screen view? The past flexibility of Legacy may be an impediment

Hi Brian You said ... "Legacy 8 will not transfer the event sentences for custom events from Legacy 7 because the sentence structures and rules on what is used have changed so drastically."
