It sounds like you entered the burial as an Event/Fact instead of as the standard Burial event. As such Legacy doesn't know that this is a posthumous event. The only solution is to use "Exclude from Potential Problems..." on this individual. Or enter the burial info in the place Legacy expects to find it. As far as Obituary, Death Notice, etc., you must use "Exclude" to get around the problem. You could go to http://www.legacyfamilytree.com/suggest.asp and suggest that they implement a way to mark Event Types as posthumous. -- Dennis Kowallek (LTools) http://zippersoftware.com/ltools http://groups.yahoo.com/group/ltools 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
