I am currently using Legacy 8 with the latest build. I am having an issue with the living indicator. Recently for some unknown reason all of the living people in my database are set to deceased (no death information is entered for them) whereas before they were set to living. I realized I can change each person individually however my database contains over 40,000 people which is very time consuming. Does anyone know how I can fix this easier? I cannot find a setting to revert all people without death dates to living. Russ -- Russell G. Strong P. S. Check out Legacy Family Tree today!
