Thanks, Geoff Rasmussen Legacy Family Tree [email protected] www.LegacyFamilyTree.com From: Kathy Meyer [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Tuesday, June 28, 2011 8:08 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [LegacyUG] ADDING OBITUARIES... No, you can't do that. Another answer was sent, probably as you were typing this. Your best bet is to take that advice and use your events for this purpose. Or even as a source. For instance, you can use a general source (anything from 'obituary' to 'chicago times obituaries' -- whatever you use as general or as specific as suits your purposes). Once you choose your master source, use the source detail area to transcribe the entire obit or portions that you choose. Then attach that scan image in the multimedia section of the source detail. That's what I would do. Additionally, I could create an event of 'obituary' and do basically the same as above. Then you can copy each to their respective clipboards and attach those to all of the people that are mentioned in that obit to show that you have found them or verified them as relations. That's brief, but you probably understand and if not, just ask another question :-) Kathy On Tue, Jun 28, 2011 at 8:59 AM, Marian Seiders <[email protected]> wrote: Thanks Kathy for your answer. I wish to Scan a newpaper Obituary and put it directly into the General Notes Section fo an Individual. Is there a way to do this, and if so, could you tell me how, in easy simple steps ? Thank You !

You can copy/paste things into Notes. But I imagine you are asking about something else. Are you asking if you can insert an image of an obituary (for instance) into notes?
