Why not just start building a location database of our own? Seems all we need is: PlaceName-Long-Lat
Put into a 3 column spreadsheet and doing a two level sort on long and then lat would show every name associated with any particular long/lat- right? Get as many other legacy users, even others who use other programs, as possible to contribute their locations, add in the GEObase locations and you've got a great start. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Wendy Howard" <[email protected]> To: [email protected] Sent: Tuesday, January 19, 2010 3:34:51 PM GMT -06:00 US/Canada Central Subject: Re: [LegacyUG] GEO Updates Coming? Hi John, > All I am looking for is the ability to add manually, more place names > to the GEO list Such a thing has been mentioned at least twice in the past few days - did you not see it?! Under this very subject line, I posted yesterday: "Dave Naylor told us how to do this yesterday under the subject "Customizing Location Format". You can read his post at http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/msg01482.html if you missed it." If this doesn't work for you, please let us know what you did and where you had problems, so that we can try to help you further. :-) Kind Regards, Wendy Howard -- Kaiwaka, Northland, New Zealand http://freepages.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~wendyh65/ <http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/%7Ewendyh65/> 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 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
