A *little bit* of a learning curve for me, but already LOVING Legacy Family Tree version 8 so far....
However, I'm having a wee bit of trouble getting Legacy to recognize my modified GeoExtraCodes.txt and GeoStateCodes.txt files. I prefer the words "County" or "Co." automatically added to location names as in "Peekskill, Westchester *County*, New York," and I also prefer the "old style" state abbreviations such as "Calif." for California vs. the postal code, "CA." As in previous versions, I copied the respective original Legacy text files, appended the filenames with "-Alt" as in "GeoExtraCodes-Alt.txt," and made the necessary modifications in the -Alt files. It worked fine in version 7.x, but version 8 doesn't seem to be recognizing the changes. Anything I'm doing wrong? Any help would be much appreciated. I'm using Windows 7 Premium and Legacy 8.0 full version. Kind Regards, John M. Alexandria, Va., U.S.A.
