Legacy is NOT LDS based. It does however contain a lot of LDS related information to support those users who are LDS.
To record a couple who did not marry link them as husband and wife but on the marriage info screen you can indicate that this couple did not marry. There are also wording options on the marriage wording tab that can change the wording for reports when a couple did not marry. Legacy does not support same sex couples. To enter the couple you will have to falsely indicate that one member is male. If you have MS Access there are steps you can do to change that male to female but then there are implications where other utilities in Legacy such as a check repair of your database will undo that change. This web site includes instructions on that work around, if it still exists. I have not tested the link recently. http://www.moss-fritch.com/legacy.htm Brian Customer Support Millennia Corporation [email protected] http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com We are changing the world of genealogy!
