Re: [LegacyUG] Change Surname Spelling
Because I use the Swedish Language while doing most of my work in English, The alpha list SORTS the extra 3 characters in the right Swedish order, so I would guess once a cyrillic alphabet language is added to the list of available choices, it will know the order. Have you offered to be on the team of helpers to create the coding, since the attitude seems to be, get the characters AND the reports completed at the same time. For some added recently there was a team of volunteers checking the product so dialets/languages unknown to the staff can eventually make it onto the list. I also use Spanish, French and German; but they sort Swedish (most frequent use of the 'extras'. I still need Polish, Ukrainian, Beylorus, Lithuanian, but I am saving learning them until implemented by others. Rich in LA CA --- On Mon, 3/30/09, Dennis M.

It's just that the Name Index (index line) was designed around the English A-Z characters plus no surname and the two angle bracket categories (for everything else). Because the OP's surnames don't begin with A-Z and don't fall into the no surname category, Legacy dumps them into one of the angle bracket categories. The problem is that the user of the web-page has to know that to find these names they need to click on the angle bracket. P.S. I think there is a bug here because some of the OP's surnames like ZILLI are not showing up under the letter Z (see http://www.bc-cola.com/ftree/ped/Names27.htm). So my guess is that the special chars are confusing Legacy as far as the Name Index is concerned. This is a definite bug that the programmers will have to acknowledge.

Re: [LegacyUG] Fw: Problem with Mapping - Follow-up
One of the reasons can be that the programmers in their wisdom had decided that the center of the balloon indicates the correct spot. As the balloon has a point people think that the point of the balloon points to the correct spot. That is normal behaviour, I think. I complained many times about this problem. As far as I know the staff and programmers donot think it is worth to change the indicated spot from the center of the balloon to the point of the pin. In my opinion this is a very major bug, but they think else.

RE: [LegacyUG] Run time error '5'
Christopher, Are you familiar with the Registry? Is your install log missing from the Legacy folder? In your email you do not say, only imply :-). It is not difficult to delete Legacy from the Registry but I only advise on how to do it with people I am sure have sufficient knowledge and, of course, it is entirely at their own risk and I accept no responsibility for any outcome. What version are you running and do you have Legacy Charting installed?

She told me to uninstall and reinstall. I tried this, but I continued to have this problem. It got to the point where I did not use Legacy on my main computer, and just used it on a separate machine in my bedroom. Since that time, I have once again subscribed to the UG and noticed that many people were trying to uninstall/reinstall and finding that the program would not reinstall because of the missing install file. That appears to be my problem, and from what I understand, the fix requires some editing in the registry files. Can anyone tell me what this fix is? Thanks much.

The first thing is for you to be able to use it. If you start with an individual in, say Family View, and click the Mapping Icon then the program will automatically try to put the pins into the locations associated with this person. This can be quite inaccurate and it should be noted that it only reconises modern locations, The next thing to note is that one cannot move the pins and it is necessary to move the map, and then put your curser in the correct place and right click. But this cannot be done in the screen displayed when you click the mapping icon; you need to click Resolve. This takes you to the same screen as ViewMaster ListsLocation and here you can move the map and set the location as described above. Using the zoom in and zoom out helps to manipulate the maps.

If you look at the third paragraph in my e-mail you will note I mention stripping the Registry of Nortons. The problem is that you never get it all, they seem to have the ability to insert files that cannot be removed or are named in such a way as to have no connection to Nortons. I can find my way around the Registry without any problem and am experienced in removing programs in this manner I am not the only one that has come up against this problem, I have been in touch with others on forums with the same problem and they all concurred that a format was the only way to get rid of all Nortons files in the registry.

I have no wish to start a discussion on which is the best anti virus program but from my observations I have found Nortons cause more problems than they fix and if it was my computer I would remove Nortons and use another program to see if the problem is fixed. The one difficulty I have found is that Nortons is difficult to remove and even after stripping the registry there is still stuff left behind and formatting the hard drive and re-installing evrything again is the only way it can be done.

Yes, but the point I was trying to make is the programmers at Millennia have only indirect control over how your location is represented on the map. The co-ordinates are given to MS, along with requirements for the size and colour of the balloon, and VirtualEarth obliges with where it thinks the balloon should go - and, which part of the balloon represents the location. I agree. It would be logical to everyone if the point of the balloon pointed where the co-ordinates said it should. But this is Microsoft. When have they ever been logical in what they do as a business? Remember, VirtualEarth is really intended to be a business tool. The fact that we can stick pins in our own maps is not that important, because it won't earn Microsoft any money. -- Regards, Mike Fry Johannesburg.

Evert 2009/3/30 Dennis M. Kowallek kowal...@iglou.com: Because the OP can already enter the special chars in Legacy, and the web pages display them just fine. It's just that the Name Index (index line) was designed around the English A-Z characters plus no surname and the two angle bracket categories (for everything else). Because the OP's surnames don't begin with A-Z and don't fall into the no surname category, Legacy dumps them into one of the angle bracket categories. The problem is that the user of the web-page has to know that to find these names they need to click on the angle bracket. P.S. I think there is a bug here because some of the OP's surnames like ZILLI are not showing up under the letter Z (see http://www.bc-cola.com/ftree/ped/Names27.htm). So my guess is that the special chars are confusing Legacy as far as the Name Index is concerned. This is a definite bug that the programmers will have to acknowledge.

RE: [LegacyUG] Run time error '5'
Christopher, The install.log file most of the time is not missing. The messages says The install.log file cannot be opened or something like that. It's a problem with the uninstaller and we believe it's been fixed in the latest build. However uninstalling is not required for the repair of Error 5. You just need to delete the .usr files and then reinstall with the most recent build of Legacy v7 (or the final build if you're using an earlier version of Legacy). No registry edit is needed. With Legacy closed, go to the c:\Legacy folder on your hard drive. Delete the install.log file. Then go to the c:\Legacy\Backup folder and delete any files there with the word install in the file name. Reinstall Legacy with the latest build from our website and you should have no problem uninstalling Thanks for using Legacy.

Re: [LegacyUG] Fw: Problem with Mapping - Follow-up
Folks - My issue is not about which part of the balloon points where. I am very familiar with Microsoft VirtualEarth and use it regularly.. I am well aware of how to resolve the coordinates. The problem is that while using the Map my Family feature, many of the locations listed in the box on the left-hand side of the screen had the balloons placed hundreds of miles from the actual location. This occurred with some families and not with others. The fact that hundreds of locations were affected told me something was amiss. Jack Earnshaw's response (see below) caused me to take another look at some of the families - and he hit the nail on the head regarding unresolved locations. All it takes is one location with a ? and some of the other locations are adversely affected. For example I am now looking at a family with 16 locations in the left-hand box. The top location has a ? in the Lat column. When I highlight Milwaukee, Wisconsin in the box the active balloon is on Hot Springs, South Dakota. Mousing over the balloon brings up the Milwaukee location with residence date. The active balloon for Hot Springs, SD, is in New York. The active balloon for Brooklyn, Windham County, Connecticut is in the middle of South Dakota. Again mousing over it brings up Brooklyn and a 1847 marriage. I don't believe this is a Microsoft problem since the balloons are all placed properly at locations listed in the left-hand box. It would appear that Legacy is assigning the family events to the wrong places when Microsoft is unable to verify one or more of the locations. I now know how to rectify this situation. Thanks, Jack, for helping me resolve the issue. And, thanks to the others who have responded. Kay I reported this as a bug some time ago but got back the unable to reproduce the problem answer.

Hi Sherry, As it turns out the balloons are in the right place for those that I have viewed (except for Boston, Suffolk County, MA, showing up in Suffolk, England - your advise of not entering the county will fix this).

Re: [LegacyUG] Problem with Mapping
I find this string strange. I just checked the mapping of my current home, which I located by getting the latitude and longitude from another (non Microsoft) mapping program, and the lower point of the balloon show right on my roof in the bird's eye and aerial views. Looks good to me. Art Seddon - Original Message - From: Jack Earnshaw To: LegacyUserGroup@legacyfamilytree.com Sent: Tuesday, March 31, 2009 6:34 AM Subject: RE: [LegacyUG] Problem with Mapping Kay I reported this as a bug some time ago but got back the unable to reproduce the problem answer. What I was finding was that choosing an individual and then clicking the Mapping button brought up the correct list of locations and then it tried to resolve on the map all those places that hadn't yet been resolved. This is where it went wrong. The places it picked all were within the list of locations on the left, BUT the coordinates and balloon were allocated to the wrong place. E.g. if there were 4 locations A, B, C and D and that B, C and D had not been resolved before i.e. placed on the map then it seemed to place location B at the point on the map for location C, similarly for location C it might go to the place on the map for location D. This didn't always happen, but very frequently. Now I try to ensure that the places have been resolved properly before I go to mapping. But I will always go down the list to make sure that the locations are shown at the correct place on the map. Going to the location list and getting places resolved that way seems to be OK, it is only when this occurs on the fly by using the Mapping button Jack Legacy User Group guidelines: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/Etiquette.asp Archived messages: http://www.mail-archive.com/legacyusergroup@legacyfamilytree.com/ Online technical support: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/Help.asp To unsubscribe: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/LegacyLists.asp

Re: [LegacyUG] Effect of Master Source Overrides and Preventing Disappearing Details in Subsequent Citations
Connie, Glad I could aid your comprehension of how it is working. Your 3 methods make sense. Regarding the cases where the citations are not footnotes but rather all grouped together: I was informed on Sunday by Technical Support that This source citation problem has been logged in our bug tracking system and reported to the programmers as issue 0002201. The fix for this problem will be included in a future update to the Legacy program. I do not have a time table for release of updates. Ward - Original Message - From: Connie Sheets clshee...@yahoo.com To: LegacyUserGroup@legacyfamilytree.com Sent: Monday, March 30, 2009 2:14 PM Subject: Re: [LegacyUG] Effect of Master Source Overrides and Preventing Disappearing Details in Subsequent Citations Ward, First, thanks to you and Ron for the reminder about Ctrl+i. I also realized after posting that it is not just the Subsequent Citations capability that would lead me to choose Sourcewriter+Override instead of Basic; it also allows for a properly formatted Bibliography. I misspoke when I indicated I was seeing a difference in the handling of Subsequent Citations in the most recent build; I had forgotten that I had moved details from the fields that disappear on subsequent citations to a field that always appears. And _thank you_ for your 4 groupings concept; that has helped me tremendously in comprehending how Legacy is working and how I can work with the templates to get the kind of Subsequent Citations I want. I still agree with you and Jenny that I am baffled by why the programmers would choose to design a system where an Override at the Master Source level makes the Details fields useless. Not logical (or apparent) at all. Perhaps there is some technical reason? If that is the case, a Warning type message when one overrides a Master Source would be helpful. In any event, there are, it seems, three ways to get Subsequent Citations that meet my needs. I haven't been overriding Master Sources since our conversation in December in the hope it was a bug that would be fixed, so this is based upon experimentation with only a very few of the templates. 1. Construct a Master Source Override with No Details (e.g. ArtifactsPrivately held, where the one detail field available is one that apparently always disappears on Subsequent Citations). This may require fudging on what goes in which field of the Master Source. 2. If I can live with the way the Master Source itself prints in Subsequent Citations, move details from a field that disappears into a field that always appears. (No override). Example: Marriage recordsFound in government recordsMarriage registersCreated at county levelOnline database template: I moved citing Tazewell Co. Marriages, Vol 1, p. 37 from the Credit Line field to the Item of Interest field, so that I now get a subsequent citation that reads Illinois Secretary of State, Illinois Statewide Marriage Index, 1763-1900, database entry for William F. Reid - Elizabeth Holland, citing citing Tazewell Co. Marriages, Vol 1, p. 37 instead of Illinois Secretary of State, Illinois Statewide Marriage Index, 1763-1900, database entry for William F. Reid - Elizabeth Holland 3. If I do not wish to live with the way the Master Source prints in Subsequent Citations _and_ I want details _and_ I can't make a Master Source Override alone meet my needs, then I must override at the Details level and check the box Use this customized Subsequent Citation in reports. That was the only way I could construct the following Subsequent Citation: Illinois Statewide Marriage Index, 1763-1900, entry for William F. Reid - Elizabeth Holland, citing citing Tazewell Co. Marriages, Vol 1, p. 37 As best as I can figure out, you can achieve almost any subsequent citation you want with method #3, though it is time-consuming if you need to use the same format multiple times but with many varying Details. Using Clipboard then editing the Detail in the more free-form Detail Override screen helps a bit. Are there other ways I haven't figured out? (This of course only relates to Footnotes in narrative reports; Endnotes in such reports plus Family Group Sheet, Individual Reports etc. still do not have Subsequent Citation capability, which I assume is still a bug? Or have we also been told that is also by design?)

[LegacyUG] General Notes VS. Events
What is the general concensus regarding where to put general information - Notes or Events? A lot of the items I put into events has written data to explain the event, but it is a bit awkward to have to refer to the event statement to read it. Should entries such as a census comment be placed in General Notes or as an event? If in the event field, the entry under the individual is pretty stark '...He was in the1870 Census...' or some similar feature. Likewise, if the obituary is entered as an event, the entry under the individual states '...He was buried...'. I would appreciate some input from others as to which place is most commonly uses to put general data like, birth, death, marriages, obituaries,etc. Bob Legacy User Group guidelines: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/Etiquette.asp Archived messages: http://www.mail-archive.com/legacyusergroup@legacyfamilytree.com/ Online technical support: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/Help.asp To unsubscribe: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/LegacyLists.asp

RE: [LegacyUG] Run time error '5'
Nope, no Norton programs on my system. Here is the sequence of what occurred: I downloaded 7.0.0.90. (Either shortly before or shortly after installing 7.0.0.90, I also installed Adobe Reader 9). Legacy seemed to work properly for several days, but I had not tried to print. When I tried to preview/print a report, Legacy froze and could only be shut down with Ctrl-Alt-Del and End Process. (No error message appeared). After trying several other things (deleting .usr files, etc.), I tried to uninstall Legacy. It appeared to uninstall, but I later discovered Legacy was still on my computer and operational (except for my print/preview problem). It was at this point that I discovered the install.log file was no longer on my system and I could not uninstall Legacy. The only way I could remove Legacy from my system was to delete it from the Registry. I then reinstalled, and it was at this point I got Error 339 when trying to print/preview. I fixed that by following the Legacy online instructions for downloading the affected .ocx files (vsprint8.ocx and vspdf8.ocx if I'm remembering correctly).
