I agree that Legacy is not "accountable"; I'm just trying to make it appear so that some users don't get the wrong impression when their reports start spitting out strange information (all due to the user's carelessness). Regardless, Legacy will surely get the blame from them. How does that saying go...garbage in, garbage out.
That being said, let's go ahead and see if Legacy is even consistent in this not-accountable-for-user-carelessness. Open up a Notes Window for any individual. Make sure there is nothing entered or visible in the notes window. Now, let's carelessly click on SAVE. Did Legacy go ahead a save a blank note record? No! The Notes Icon still remains grayed out meaning there is nothing there. Legacy was smart enough to realize that the user did not type anything in the window and even though SAVE was clicked, Legacy did not create any file data. Why does it create something out of nothing if that window happens to be the Marriage Info window? This is not an earth-shattering event in the overall use of Legacy. I just think it's some programming code that can be cleaned up to make for a better user experience with the program.
