Re: [LegacyUG] Set relationships problem
Hi Mary, Did you reset the relationships after you entered the new people? It doesn't happen automatically in v7.

Re: [LegacyUG] set relationships
When I enter a person, I have a field I call relationship that I complete when I enter a person. I set this field to show on the Family view. That way I don't spend time researching people who are not related; and I can tell at a glance who/how the person is related to either myself, my husband, or our granddaughter. Don't mean to complain, but I do miss the v6 method. I have to use the Relationship Calculator for my husband's and granddaughter's relatives anyway so now I'll have to use it to do mine. Thanks for the help everyone.

Imagine the program automatically doing that every time you added a new name. I do not reset after adding every name, even if in a direct line, just every now and again when I either need to do it or just want to look at something.

Re: [LegacyUG] set relationships
But, Ron, having to reset relationships or opening the relationship calculator every time I add a new related person is very time consuming. I really miss the automatic calculation of relationships, it was a really neat feature. Seems some features could have had an option, use either v6 or v7 method, like with Sources.

RE: [LegacyUG] set relationships
Elsie, you make my point: having to reset relationships or opening the relationship calculator every time I add a new related person is very time consuming. Imagine the program automatically doing that every time you added a new name. I do not reset after adding every name, even if in a direct line, just every now and again when I either need to do it or just want to look at something. In fact, at the moment I think it's still set to my sister's husbands family for whom I've been doing some work rather than mine, which I have been working on for the past 3-4 days.

The link at the bottom of the emails does work but the archive page has bisnis-bali at its top left. Looks like the archive service is one of the possibly dubious (free?) ones that might explain some of the strange threads in the archive and maybe why spam has gotten into the Legacy list.

Re: [LegacyUG] set relationships
Yes, I see bisnis-bali as well. I still see some legacy related links, but there is definitely something wrong now. Evert 2008/9/16 [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED]: The link at the bottom of the emails does work but the archive page has bisnis-bali at its top left. Looks like the archive service is one of the possibly dubious (free?) ones that might explain some of the strange threads in the archive and maybe why spam has gotten into the Legacy list.

Re: [LegacyUG] Set Relationships
from the help (relationships: asterisks) If the relationship show is a cousin type, it will show the kind of cousin (first, second, etc.) and how many generations removed, in the form of 1C2R (first cousin, twice removed). If the generations removed are in the descendant direction, meaning that the cousin is in a generation younger than the starting person, an asterisk is shown after the relationship indicator.

RE: [LegacyUG] Set Relationships for both spouses
I think the sure as eggs comment is about right. I get about 10-20 emails from Genesrunited each day and try to go through them in order. But, Murphy's law seems to mean that they almost invariably alternate between being one of my rellies and being one of my wife's rellies. Being an idle watsit (ie preferring the computer to do slavish repetitive tasks) it just annoys me having to - go to the person being enquired about - go to RIN 1 or RIN 2 - set relationships - back to previous person each time the person is in the other half of the tree. Setting the starting person for set relationships as one of our sons does work (sort of), but then I don't know on which half of the tree the other person is on. eg is it my umpteenth cousin or my wife's (and in 2-3 places - both!) It's not critical, but I think it could be helpful to show the relationships to the family rather than one individual. Failing that having a macro facility might reduce the typing/clicking.

RE: [LegacyUG] Set Relationships for both spouses
Thanks to all who suggested this solution. Seems to be the best (or only) one at present. Now, if I can remember how to change the releationship from 9th cousin 5 times removed for my son into ??? for me I'll be happy. Except that the solution doesn't tell me if the connection is to me or my wife, and with several duplicate surnames I can still get in a muddle. There again I am usually in a muddle anyway.

Re: [LegacyUG] Set Relationships for both spouses
Hi Jack, If you have children, the logical thing is to set relationships to one of them. If not there may be another person who is related to both sides of the tree. I often set relationships to one of my great nephews as his ancestors are related to both my father's extended family and one of my mother's sister-in-law's family and so more clearly shows up why various people are in my database.
