Re: [LegacyUG] Citing Personal knowledge

Ed, There is a SourceWriter template for Personal Knowledge. If you use Basic Sources, you can enter something similar. I include whose knowledge and how they know or think they know - ie something that enables you to evaluate the knowledge. eg: If my brother tells me he's a grandfather again on

Re: [LegacyUG] Help, please

Barbara, One way to check whether any recent data has been added to the file in Legacy\Data is to do a search on the modified Date Search - Find - Detailed Search Tab Individual - Modified Date - after - [enter your date here] Apart from the people you've been looking at to see what is going on,

[LegacyUG] Help, please

I have been using Legacy for years, and although still using version 6.0, because I haven't done any serious research work since I was using that version, I thought I was very "on" to how the backups work. In my mind, there is an "on the fly" backup that puts data in

Re: [LegacyUG] Help, please

Oh dear. I am even more confused. Even though I have been using computers since the mid-80's and consider myself fairly tech savvy, sometimes I wonder what made me think I could successfully use and understand a program so robust as Legacy. I want to be very careful with what I do next,

Re: [LegacyUG] Help, please

Barbara, With Legacy open you can find out where your file is stored. Open the file menu and at the bottom it will show a list of recently opened files and their path. You can also open the About Legacy and the General tab and it will also under file information it will show the Family File
