Kathy, No, not all the FHCs have Legacy installed on their computers. The director of the FHC where I volunteer didn't know that it was available and only knew of Roots magic's availability. The director was willing to add Legacy which I also use and I suggest the free, standard version to patrons to use and make their own decision for their personal use.
I was told on this list that a site license was available to the FHCs for Legacy. However, when I used Legacy's web form to request a site license, I received back an error message. So, I then wrote to the Sales department asking for a site license and provided in the email all the info they required on their web form. That was over two weeks ago. As of this past Saturday, they had yet to respond to our request. So, as much as I'd like to get Legacy on the FHC's computers, we're waiting for a response. I work there on Saturday mornings so will check again this coming Saturday to see if we have a response yet.

Is that not so in your area? Where are you? They even have it installed in Salt Lake. My father in law is the director of the regional FHC in Las Vegas so I will recommend that to him as well if Legacy is not 'standard' in all FHCs; I just assumed......
