I've had to take a break from my genealogy research for the past year or so and slowly getting back into it. During this long sabbatical, there sure have been a lot of changes to Legacy and my goodness, lots of new databases added to various websites, etc. So a few of my brick walls have started to come down and now I need to edit/update, delete, etc., many of the pictures and documents in my Legacy database. It's been overwhelming on all the information that has since become available!
Since Legacy just links to these some of these I can edit the original file (documents mostly) and those changes should show up with all the people, events, sources, etc., that are linked to that particular file, at least in theory. However, I need to change some of the captions, dates, etc. on many of these documents and pictures. For example, I have a picture, which is linked to several individuals, events, etc., that I have found more information on and would like to add that to the caption and that information be reflected on all those that it is linked to. I've tried to use the picture center to find all linked to that picture, but it doesn't seem to do what I need it to do or else I'm overlooking something. I've tried the scrapbook feature, but again, I may be overlooking something. Is there a way for Legacy to find all people, events, sources attached to a particular picture or document? And/or is there a way to change the caption on, let's say a picture, where there would be an option somewhere to change for all linked to that picture, similar to the way citations and locations does when making changes? I'm using Legacy 7.5.0.56 and Win XP. Thank you so much for your help and I apologize if this has been discussed previously as I must have again overlooked that in the archives.
