Thanks for the offer Maureen. I'm ke6wxb...@gmail.com I am such a novice with Legacy I wonder if I made a good decision (to convert my files from FTM to Legacy.) I am really looking for a class that teaches how to use the sources when they are already entered, as notes, in some made up format. This all came from PAF and that was converted from a data base program written for the Commodore Pet computer back in 1987.
1. I started in genealogy to help a friend test his Commodore PET software. 2. I found PAF when I changed from Commodore to IBM (pc) computers. 3. PAF went through several upgrades and during this time my notes were established. I switched from PAF before ver 2.2 to FTM because of the nice charts. 4. FTM for Windows started on floppy disks)and as it progressed to more modern versions, the note "TAGS" were getting in the way of the sources, 5. Now I am trying to use the "sources" and edit the notes to a narrative report so I can print my genealogy with backup and pictures. As I said before, maybe switching to Legacy wasn't such a good idea; and I should have stayed with FTM. For some reason, I got the notion in my head that there were classes and seminars available on the use of Legacy. I would travel to a seminar but I have not located one so far.
