John,
Thanks for the info. FYI, copies of the subject files are also
in:
Program Files (x86)\Legacy8\_AppData\Misc\
I was making my changes in this (wrong) folder!
After modifying the files in the correct folder, everything is
working properly now.
Thanks so much!

Subject: Re: [LegacyUG] Legacy 8 and GeoExtraCodes.txt and GeoStateCodes.txt
files
Marion,
They have not changed.
The ones installed for the base ones are good to go. The -alt files you create
will be dated as you create them. Just never, never change the base ones. All
changes in the alt.

Small query - should the date of the files be updated to 2013? I have
downloaded V8 and also the Geo codes etc. but when I look under the
[MyDocuments]\Legacy Family Tree\_AppData\Misc it is showing a 2012 date for
Country Codes, a 2005 date for County codes. a 2008 date for Extra Codes and a
2008 date for State Codes.

John,
You just have to know where to put them. ;-) They work fine. I have
been using them every day.
They go in [MyDocuments]\Legacy Family Tree\_AppData\Misc
Have you installed the GeoDB successfully?
OK?
