Hint: Whenever you see something in Legacy that you want more info on, hover your mouse pointer over it until the "TIP" pops up. to enable them; "Show Popup ToolTips "Help is available on many features in Legacy as small popup help strings called ToolHelp. When this feature is enabled, holding the cursor over a button or other area on the screen for about a second, causes the help string to display. You can set the amount of time to hold the cursor over the feature before the help is shown. "These options can be set from the Customize screen reached by choosing Customize from the Options menu and then viewing the General tab." -- Gene Young Researching Young, Harer, Cox & Sallada With Legacy Family Tree http://myyoungs.atspace.com/index.htm 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).
