Other organization systems are described at http://legacynews.typepad.com/legacy_news/organization/index.html.
If you've already got a system that works well for you, I would stick with it. If you have a system that you'd like to share with others via Legacy News, send me an email. Thanks, Geoff Rasmussen Millennia Corporation [EMAIL PROTECTED] www.LegacyFamilyTree.com -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Kay Fordham Sent: Tuesday, August 22, 2006 9:57 AM To: Legacy User Group Subject: [LegacyUG] Organizing your Research Keith: I struggled for years trying various filing systems which did not work for me. I finally decided upon the system outlined by Geoff Rasmussen on the Legacy Site and am in the process of setting it up. With over 1000 MRINs in my database (and growing) the prenumbered sets on the market would be a costly option. I am using plain old cardstock and Avery index tabs with computer printable inserts. The tabs are labeled 16221 S-101 1" clear. There are 25 self-adhesive tabs to a package. I ordered 25 packages and the cost was $44.75 - this would make the unit price $1.79. I cut them and the inserts in half (there are now 1250 labels) and hand number them. You can also print them on the computer. I was only able to find this specific label on the Office Depot website, but there may be other sources in your area. My process is obviously more labor-intensive and the end-product not as professional looking as it would be with the prenumbered dividers, but it works for me.
