Hi,
Have uncovered a problem that locks-up Legacy which was caused when I made
a error entering a To-Do item for an Individual's information screen.
Here's what I did:

2. Forgot to enter a anything in the Task Needing to be Done
I am a recent convert from FTM to Legacy and trying to clean-up my sources.
I don't understand how or why to use the Source Type. If I have a
master source of Census 1900 New York and cite the county, page number
etc for details, they why do I need to enter census as the type? It

Using the program Animap, I collected the information

each state separately, as background timelines, with
the counties creation dates as Events. I have done

I also have a set of encyclopedias,
In my own setup, with 25000 people, and a splitter, I

Tom,
I had a similar problem when I first downloaded Legacy 7 with details not
printing on reports. It resolved itself when I bought the deluxe version and
updated to 7.0.0.53.
Just tried to replicate your problem but couldn't. Did it with a little source

The problem you reported has been tested and is confirmed. A report has

I suspect that the reason the word Death is printed is that the SS-5
is cited as a source on the Death fact for the individual.
