I have been using Legacy Family Tree since 2002, but I have never used Legacy Research Guidance with any success. Today I noticed the Research Guidance interface seems to have been improved in the current version of Legacy, so I continued trying to test it to see how it works. Searching on my father-in-law, whose records I know well, it brought up a menu with 6 linked databases, and I browsed in three of them before running into a problem when I tried to "save".
I was in Legacy Research Guidance, clicked on the Ancestry World Tree linked database on the menu bar, and a dialog box came up and asked for a Ancestry.com password, which I was able to provide, and then I continued searching, but when I decided to try out saving a record, it wanted to "save" to a tree on Ancestry.com. I could not find a way to save to my Legacy Family File, which was open, on the desktop PC that I was using, and through which I had used Legacy Research Guidance to get to this record. It would seem reasonable to be able to save to the Legacy family file that is in use while using Legacy Research Guidance. Is that not how it is supposed to work? I hesitate to ask a question about this complicated topic, but, having never gotten this far with Legacy Research Guidance, I thought there might be some simple answer that would be well known to those LUG users who use the Legacy Research Guidance feature, and that I should ask if there was something simple that I had missed doing.
