I agree, totally! :-) I'm always nervous of forgetting that I've used a particular tag before I go to use it for a new task. So before starting to use a new tag, do a search to make sure it really is unused... Press <s> to start a new search (or click on the Search icon, or press Ctrl-F, or click Search > Find in the menu) Look for - Individual Where Tag - x Equal To Tagged Clear List before this search Create List If it comes back with a list of names, that tag is being used for something already. Clear the tag, or pick another (and repeat the search on that tag). If you get the message "No records were found that match the search criteria" then that tag is currently unused and you can use it with confidence. Hope this helps. :-) Wendy 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 Follow Legacy on Facebook (http://www.facebook.com/LegacyFamilyTree) and on our blog (http://news.LegacyFamilyTree.com).
