The exact file formats available vary a bit from report to report. 2. the inability to find an individual in the file searching through all text fields (I have a lot of information in the "events" (facts) fields but they are not searchable at once nor is the "notes" searchable at all) Connie says: Legacy has very powerful search features. Yes, Notes and Events are searchable. Coupled with the tagging feature, and searching with up to 3 conditions, you should be able to find most anything you want fairly easily. 3. the inability to have "events" (facts) contents included in my reports, Connie says: Yes, you can include Events in your reports, or not, as you choose. You can also mark some events and notes as private and exclude just those specfic events or notes from printing, or not. Again, great flexibility is available. 4. and the data in my gedcom files now created and posted on my Rootsweb page is there but is jumbled up (it looks okay in the program but not on the internet). Connie says: You can create webpages directly from Legacy; no need to use gedcom unless you're talking about something like Rootsweb's Worldconnect project, Ancestry's Public/Private Trees, or a TNG page. I've never had a problem with gedcom jumbling up anything when I export from Legacy, except some sources created with the SourceWriter feature (rather than the Basic Source format). That is mostly an issue with the outdated GEDCOM format and happens in most, if not all, programs these days that have templates for creating Evidence Explained style source citations.
