You can always set Legacy's locations to sort from largest entity to smallest entity. i.e. country to city. Then it doesn't matter how many positions you enter. I enter as many positions as are necessary for my needs. For example, if all I know is Los Angeles, California, that's all I enter. Since LA can be the city or county, I don't add any extra commas because I wouldn't know where to place them. I certainly wouldn't lose sleep about trying to force a location name into 4 positions (or 3 in my case since I don't enter a country if it's USA). -- 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
