In the Timelines folder inside the Legacy folder, you'll find those that are installed with the program, organised by language. As you'll discover, they're just plain text files, one record per entry in the timeline together with a specific header record. Look at one with Notepad and you'll soon get the idea. As to using info from somewhere else...? That's up to you. The file format is largely a devising for Legacy, I think. So you probably won't be able to mix and match. The Help file has several topics relating to timelines. Simply type Timeline in the keyword box of the Index pane, and work your way through what it lists. -- Regards, Mike Fry Johannesburg 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).
