Thanks Ron. Good to know some of my sanity's intact! By the way, have you noticed when minimizing (vs closing) certain screens other than main ones, they seem to disappear rather than appear on the task bar at the bottom & there's no way to close out those screens remaining open? Which means I have to do a restart. Thanks, Nick. ----- Original Message ----- From: Ron Ferguson To: [email protected] Sent: Monday, April 23, 2012 11:50 AM Subject: Re: [LegacyUG] ADDRESSES VS LOCATIONS
Nick, Yes, you are correct. For this reason, many of us put the full address in the Location Field. We may have other uses for the Address Book, for example I only use for details of my living family, strangely enough, otherwise known as an Address Book, where I come from!

As I understand it, a location is any information prefaced by "in" or entered in the Place field of an Event. An Address is not a location & will, therefore, not appear on the Masters location List &, therefore, cannot be mapped. For example, I have an address where my grandparents lived. If I enter this as Marriage Info it will not appear on the Master Location List. If I add it as a unique location to the List, it will not link to any people. However, if I add it as an Event ie Residence & put the address in the Place field, it will appear. I guess there's no way to tell Legacy to include all addresses in the Master Location List. I assume I should use the address field only for current info. on living relatives. Any help you can give is appreciated. Thanks, Nick.
