Precisely! My rule (and this is for predominantly-UK places) is type from left to right, from the smallest unit (parish) to the largest (country). Use as many components (read commas) as is necessary. And then let Legacy sort the list from right to left. I largely ignore the Geo-DB except for getting a hint of where certain parishes or villages or towns are geographically, then I ignore what it gives me. The Geo-DB is too 'modern' for most UK places from the early-20th century and earlier. -- Regards, Mike Fry Johannesburg (g) 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).
