Get a printer like the Epson 1400 so you can print on 13" X 19" paper or 11" X 17" (available at your local print shop cheap). Useable charts can then be produced. Landscape is a great way to show more information on a single sheet, especially if it is using larger paper sizes. I use a friend's plotter that will take up to 42" paper on rolls for display at family reunions and the charts are always a hit. Also you can get refillable cartridges on Ebay for the Epson as well as pigment ink in bulk saving you hundreds of dollars over a single year, effectively paying for your printer in a year or two. ----- Original Message ----- From: SHIRLEY ANDERSON To: [email protected] Sent: Saturday, August 18, 2012 11:58 AM Subject: Re: [LegacyUG] Locality in the ToDo reports
I use portrait mode. I don't worry about the locality field once it is printed. The information about the individual is usually sufficient, plus the description usually has the location. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Shirley York Anderson [email protected] ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ My web site: http://homepages.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~syafam/ http://myfamilybrickwalls.blogspot.com/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ From: Bruce Jones <[email protected]> To: [email protected] Sent: Sat, August 18, 2012 1:15:58 AM Subject: Re: [LegacyUG] Locality in the ToDo reports I have been using portrait mode.

I only get the first 10 or so characters in the Locality field, which is to the right of the Category field.

For research to be done in Salt Lake City, before the country I sometimes show a name that relates to the floor(s) the material will be on (e.g. British). I also enter the film/book no. in the repository field so that all of the records that I need from a given field are together. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Shirley York Anderson [email protected] ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ My web site: http://homepages.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~syafam/ http://myfamilybrickwalls.blogspot.com/ -------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: Bruce Jones <[email protected]> To: [email protected] Sent: Fri, August 17, 2012 5:10:06 PM Subject: [LegacyUG] Locality in the ToDo reports I am trying to get the ToDo list to print out by Country. 1. I enter the locality in the ToDo as I would in other places in Legacy, and it uses the Location Master List. However, when I print a ToDo list, sorting by locality, the Locality is sorted by City instead of Country. 2. If I create a unique locality with the Country first,then County, then City, I can get the report to sort by country but cannot see the county or city as the field is too short on the report. How do I get the full Locality to print out on the ToDo report? Am I using the Locality field in the ToDo incorrectly?
