[LegacyUG] Slots for number of children
I've got an ancient version of Legacy, version 4. Am ready to update and have a question on version 7's ability to list the number of children in a family. v4 has the same number of 'slots' for every family in the entire database. You can change it...but the change affects ALL the families. I have some with upwards of 14 children which squeezes names in a small listing, any more are on an extra tab. Those families with few children show mostly unecessary blank spaces. I need to be able to show a rare few familes with 14, 15, 16 or more children with others having only 2, 3 or 4. I need the family page display to be sized accordingly. Will v7 offer me this option ?

[LegacyUG]Tollarance - was: New Family Search Access

The way JLB worded the message may have been in jest or in a completely different tone than you made it out to be. Without knowing this, we shouldn't be so quick to judge.

Re: [LegacyUG] Slots for number of children
Hi Meg, I think you are talking about on screen view? In Legacy 7 for the Family View, you have a new choice of Best Fit. You find it at Options Customise - View Tab - Child Columns on Family View. You can select one, two or three columns - as you could I think in version 4 - as well as Best fit Best fit changes the number of columns depending on how many children in the family. You'll still need to use the slider to get the next screen if you have a family with more than 15 children.

RE: [LegacyUG] Slots for number of children
Penny, You can globally set the children's columns in Version 6 to 15. The difference in Version 7 is that there is a globally setting of best fit which sets each individual page. As has been said for over 15 siblings the scroll bar will still need to be used.

RE: [LegacyUG] v7 Error 400
Hi Sherry, Thanks for this fix. I copied the earlier version of vsocx6.ocx to my c:\Windows\System32 folder, and it appears to have made Legacy 7 work! (BTW, putting the file in that folder is a different instruction than the directions on the website for error 400.) Also, what should I do with my newer version of vsocx6.ocx (which didn't work with Legacy 6 or 7) but which presumably other programs need? For the time being I've set it on my desktop, so as not to overwrite it with the earlier version.

If saving the vsocx6.ocx file from our website to the c:\Windows\System32 folder doesn't solve the problem, then you need to save that file along with the Legacy.exe.local file to the c:\Legacy folder. Normally that solves the problem and should work for v7 was well as v6. The key is having the legacy.exe.local folder in the c:\Legacy folder along with the vsocx6.ocx file. Thanks for using Legacy.

What was the version number for the vsocx6.ocx file before you tried the fix this time? Finally, when replacing DLL or OCX files, sometimes they need to be manually registered. Follow these steps for Windows XP. 1. Once your Window's operating system has loaded completely, click on Start and then click on Run. 2. Next you will input in the Run field a command that tells your computer to register the DLL or OCX file. You will need to input specific information including the path and the file name. The following is a template for the command: regsvr32 \FileName.dll It is important to note that path is the actual location or directory of where the file is located. Filename is obviously the name of the DLL or OCX file you will be registering. Below is a sample command: Regsvr32 C:\Windows\System32\example.dll 3. Once the command is input into the Run field correctly, press Enter. Once the DLL has been registered, you should receive a confirmation in the form of a pop up box. This message will list your newly registered DLL file and confirm that is was successfully registered into the registry. There may be a similar issue if you need to try the second fix with the msvbvm60.dll file. However I would wait to hear from support before trying any of the v. 6 fixes with v.7. It may be a similar problem but need a different file version than that posted for v.6.

Re: [LegacyUG] convert FTM to Legacy
According to FTM 2008, the Legacy data file can be directly converted to FTM wihtout going through the GEDRCOM process, as can the files of several other genealogy software programs. However, when I tried it, nearly 300 records from a 6,200 record file did not make it to FTM 2008. The people at FTM had no other solution than to go through the GEDCOM process.

Re: [LegacyUG] Availability for download for pre-qualified V7 folks?
Yet another availability question I'm afraid. Qualified folks who purchased the CD version have been receiving their copies of V7. Now you say that folks that are not pre-qualified (because they bought V6 earlier than the qualifying date for V7) will be able to purchase an upgrade starting next week. What about those of us who do qualify for the free V7 but purchased our V6s through the website? I have not yet received an email indicating that I can download my copy of V7. Didn't Millennia say that All users who qualified for free V7 would be able to get V7 before it was opened up for general purchase?

Re: [LegacyUG] Slots for number of children
Very true, Ron. However, my point was aimed at my pleasure in that global setting in v7. Before, I **had** to choose one or another: either my larger-families could be seen without scrolling, but left only-kids scrinched into one little corner on our pages; or scrolling to find find any number-12s and 14s. I wasn't happy with either choice. Best fit is so much better to look at while making it easier to navigate and I'm enjoying this new feature! (Luckily, I have precious few instances of more than 15 kids born to one set of parents.) Penny You can globally set the children's columns in Version 6 to 15. The difference in Version 7 is that there is a globally setting of best fit which sets each individual page. As has been said for over 15 siblings the scroll bar will still need to be used.

What was the version number for the vsocx6.ocx file before you tried the fix this time? Finally, when replacing DLL or OCX files, sometimes they need to be manually registered. Follow these steps for Windows XP. 1. Once your Window's operating system has loaded completely, click on Start and then click on Run. 2. Next you will input in the Run field a command that tells your computer to register the DLL or OCX file. You will need to input specific information including the path and the file name. The following is a template for the command: regsvr32 \FileName.dll It is important to note that path is the actual location or directory of where the file is located. Filename is obviously the name of the DLL or OCX file you will be registering. Below is a sample command: Regsvr32 C:\Windows\System32\example.dll 3. Once the command is input into the Run field correctly, press Enter. Once the DLL has been registered, you should receive a confirmation in the form of a pop up box. This message will list your newly registered DLL file and confirm that is was successfully registered into the registry. There may be a similar issue if you need to try the second fix with the msvbvm60.dll file. However I would wait to hear from support before trying any of the v. 6 fixes with v.7.

[LegacyUG] Source Detail (using Legacy 7)
Hi, I am a SPLITTER with my sources having a master source for each family in each census. I have NEVER used the source detail. With the new SourceWriter I am experimenting with LUMPING having just one master source for each census year. My problem. in the source detail I added the detail text with all of my individual family's census details.(ie name, age, profession, etc for everyone in the household).

Re: [LegacyUG] Error 3021in Ver 5
Glen, I had the same error in Legacy 6 Deluxe version. If you feel you have all Windows and Legacy updates, and your File/Maintenance check repair gives no errors, my quick fix was to deselect the reusing of abandoned RINs. I kept that setting for at least a month. When I changed the option to reuse abandoned RINs, I never saw the error again. I have a 'vast void' in knowledge of computers programs, but my hunch as to the cause of the error was simple. Every individual in my family file was entered one at a time . (No downloaded gedcoms) I deleted very few individuals, producing very few abandonded RINs. Perhaps some Legacy update somehow interfered with the program's search for abandoned RINs, finding none, the error 3021 was produced. There are other reasons for the 3021 error than just reusing the abandoned RINs. The above was more of an easy way for me to ignore the problem, not solve the problem.

RE: [LegacyUG] Source Detail (using Legacy 7)
Angela, I'm not a splitter and have never tried to work out how to source this way. However it looks to me as though highlighting the Source in the list and clicking edit will give you what you need. Otherwise if using the Source Clipboard, again click edit and at the top of the page it says Select or Change Master Source and that also should do it. It maybe that someone with direct experience in splitting can help you better.

Several Ways! The easiest - go to yourself. Then go to Tools - Set Relationships. Now you r relationship to everyone will show above their name in the Family view. Or you can go to Tools - Relationship Calculator for a more detailed look to anyone in your database. This one can be printed too.

Re: [LegacyUG] V7 Legacy - mapping outside USA?
Thanks, Cathy and everyone who responded. I checked out Virtual Earth and it does provide excellent aerial images of the regions that interest me. Looking forward to trying this in V7. 2008/5/25 Cathy [EMAIL PROTECTED]: Hi Kimberly, I have very few USA locations. How well Virtual Earth is mapping the locations you've entered into Legacy varies. Virtual Earth works on current location names so it is much worse at automatically mapping an historic location. There is an option to ask to have all locations without coordinates automatically mapped. I haven't and wouldn't because Virtual Earth likes guessing and often guesses wrong. Any location that already has coordinates is simply mapped to those coordinates. If on looking you decide the pin is a little misplaced and would like to reposition it, you just right click on the spot you want and OK the shift. I understand that the coordinates given in the Legacy 6 Geo-location list are not as precise as VE but it's something I never used. Like Google Earth, VE varies in how close you can zoom in to various places. In London you can get a Birds Eye view and look at each side of a building from about 20m. For the place I grew up near Margaret River in Western Australia (how times change, when I was growing up it was the poor relation and anyone who wanted to complete high school had to bus to Busselton, now it is known for fine wine around the world) you can only zoom to 2km in Aerial view but with the map view you can go in and see the street names. So if you want all your locations resolved automatically, it's not so good, even for the USA. If you're prepared to get to know the locations and zoom in on the map or Aerial or Bird's Eye view, you can put the pin wherever you want across the whole world. However depending on where, you get more or less help. Looking at Africa - most of Africa you only get aerial from 2.5km whereas the Island of Mauritius can be viewed from 150m much better than where I live in the Perth Hills. Cheers, Cathy At 08:12 PM 25/05/2008, you wrote: All the talk about V7 mapping has me wondering. How well will it work for non-USA locations? How *does* it work? Will it use the coordinates I have entered? How will it handle coordinates that seem to map to the middle of the ocean? (Land masses that show up on satellite maps but are missing from other maps.) I ask because I've been disappointed before with mapping features of other software. If they do anything at all, they tend to move my locations at the next recognisable higher level location which is not helpful. Thanks.

RE: [LegacyUG] v7 features I like best ... SourceWriter is among them
Elizabeth, There may be several reason for using RINs but my main two are (in order): 1) Legacy created web pages have the RIN as file name in their Pedigree webpages 2) Both on other types of legacy web pages and where there is a large number of individuals with the same names and similar dobs (or other vital information), one can often only be ceratin of getting the correct one by using RINs.

Re: [LegacyUG] v7 features I like best ... SourceWriter is among them
Not sure if this is what you are talking about, but - In the master name list you can just click on a name and then select the edit tab on the right hand side. There are also tabs to add/change events/notes/sources and edit father/mother and marriage (family tab). You can do this in V6 (I don't have v7 so I'm not sure how it is different). I never realized I could do this until I tried it after seeing Don Cook's post. It's a great capability.

Re: [LegacyUG] Source Detail (using Legacy 7)
Hi Angela, I can't imagine never having used Source Detail ;-) What you are missing, I think, is the Source Clipboard. You can load a Master Source plus Source detail onto the Source Clipboard and then use that to attach both to any other event or individual. If you've already entered the source detail for someone, you go to their Assigned Sources screen and highlight the Master Source and Source detail line you want and use the Copy to Source Clipboard button. For more information on using the Source Clipboard check out Help and/or the Training Videos.

Re: [LegacyUG] v7 features I like best ... access individuals from Master Lists
JLB, I'm thinking you are correct. The Master Lists are accessed by selecting 'View' in the top toolbar. Master lists such as Location, Source, Event Definition may be viewed, but in Deluxe Ver 6 you can't edit the individuals generated from this screen. You can edit individuals when accessed by using the Name List (an icon in an upper tool bar). Might be what Don was referring to. Can anyone using Ver 7 confirm this editing directly from the Master lists? If it is included it sounds most useful.

Re: [LegacyUG] v7 features I like best ... SourceWriter is among them
I just realized that he is not talking about the name list but other master lists like source and location . For example if you go to the master source list, select one and click on Show List you get a list of names. In order to change anything you need to tag the list or record the RIN and navigate to change the individual. There is no select capability. I have often thought that it would be a good feature if you could make changes from the master list, as suggested If this is what we are getting in V7 - that's great.

Hi Denise, I'm not sure I'm right, but I keep my files on a FLASHDRIVE and then also have a place to save them on my laptop and another on my desktop. I also use a 500GB hard drive to back important files on. This is probably over-kill, but I hate loosing my work . . . With a flash drive you can also take it to Research places and download things like a Family History Center. Good luck I'll be watching to see what others are doing, too.

Re: [LegacyUG] Re: What Happened With Rootsweb Transfer to Legacy
A little late, but my 2 bits: The suggestions below still make sense, maybe if I reword them: You need to check for 2 things: 1) Did the missing data get exported into the GEDCOM 2) If so, what was it tagged as, so you can figure out how to get Legacy to import it To check for item 1: Figure out one or two of the items you know did NOT make it into Legacy Make a copy of the GEDCOM (call it xxx.TXT instead of xxx.GED) Load the xxx.TXT file into a text editor (Notepad, Wordpad, even MS-Word) Do a FIND on a unique word that's in one of the items that did not make it into Legacy. If its in there, then look along the left edge to see what FTM called this info, what field name it was given. If it is not in there, then FTM did not export the info into the gedcom. You may be able to modify FTM's export function?? To do item 2: Assuming the missing field(s) are in the GEDCOM file: Start Legacy's import, and select the xxx.GED file When the GEDCOM Import screen comes up (the box with the big Start the Import button) - instead click the CUSTOMIZE button at the lower left Look in the UNRECOGNIZED ITEMS box, look at the ITEMS NOT TO BE IMPORTED box, and even look at the IMPORT THESE ITEMS list - try to find the field name (from #1 above) and make sure it gets mapped to a NOTES field (or to whatever field you want it) Note that you might want to put something into the box on the bottom right (like ***CHECK THIS*** or some such thing). I'd suggest doing item #2 to a NEW Legacy file first. If it works, make a backup of your existing Legacy file. You now have 3 Legacy files: A) The new import that contains your missing notes B) Your working Legacy file C) A backup of your working legacy file. You SHOULD now be able to merge Legacy files A B together so you get the notes and keep any new info you've added. If it messes up, restore your working file using the backup. Hope that helps.

I appreciate your thoughts. The problem is not with Rootsweb, but rather the info transferred from Family Tree Maker 2006 via Gedcom to my Legacy program. I still have the data from the transfer date on the FTM files, but some of the notes did not get passed to Legacy in the transfer. I was able to fix those that I know about by creating a FTM Genealogy Report into Microsoft Word and then copying it for transfer to my Legacy file. Time consuming, but it worked. I worry about those I don't know about, but once they are detected, I will do the same process again. Where there is a will, there is a way.

I do not know what Rootsweb includes in it's downloads, nor in what format, but if it is a Gedcom then you can have a look at it in Notepad and see if the notes are there. If so it would seem that Rootsweb may call them something else for the Gedom and you would need to check put unrecognised items into the Notes field - that wording may not be exactly right. You can then download into a new Legacy file and merge where necessary. If there are no Notes in the Gedcom then they haven't been downloaded. Again, I don't know if Roorsweb allows the download of Notes, or you may have to state exactly what data you wish to download. To answer your point about pressing a button - I'm afraid not.

Silence is the essential condition, the vital ingredient for all that is created. It is a power in its own right. The artist starts with a blank canvas - silence. The composer places it between and behind the notes. The very ground of your being, out of which comes all your thoughts, is silence. The way to silence is through meditation. When you arrive in your own silence you will know true freedom and real power. Take a minute and listen to the silence within you. Be aware of what disturbs it. It could be anxiety, anger, worry, bad memories, etc. When you are aware, you will know what is draining your creative power, and you will know what needs to change...on the inside...
