File merging seems to have produced erroneous links with both Legacy 6 and Legacy 7. Under Legacy 6, I found duplication of parents with children linked to only one set. That was picked up by either noticing doubled spouses on the Family Screen, or that the tree could be traversed one way but not the other. It was fixable by appropriate delinking of the childless parents.
My last merge with Legacy 7 similarly produced a tree traversable down but not up from files lacking that feature, stopping at a parentless individual, but with no other information or apparent tool in Legacy to fix it. (No duplication of child or parents.) Accordingly, I exported a gedcom to GRAMPS, where the individual showed up with two parent sets, one correct and the other two "Unknown". It's trivial in GRAMPS to delete the bad link, so I did that and returned the genealogy to Legacy 7 via gedcom with the problem found fixed. No change appeared in the individual count in GRAMPS or Legacy, nor did it earlier in Legacy 6, and "File Repair" fails to fix this. My questions: Is there a way to search Legacy 7 for this kind of problem? Is there a way to fix the parent duplication one in Legacy 7? kb Legacy User Group guidelines: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/Etiquette.asp Archived messages after Nov. 21 2009: http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/ Archived messages from old mail server - before Nov. 21 2009: http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/ Online technical support: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/Help.asp To unsubscribe: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/LegacyLists.asp
