I have discovered that when there are <tab> in an event field vs, the (hidden) character Legacy considers this as not a duplicate? I am using Legacy Ver 7.5
Sourced from the same original gedcom and exported to a gedcom that was used in another Legacy ver 7.5 file, then that file was exported out as a gedcom and being imported back into the original gedcom This persons record was not changed and still shows the last modified date of 1/3/2012 But is not merged as a duplicate because the one event has <tab> Name:<tab>Frederick Dressen Arrival Date:<tab>6 Jul 1858 Birth Year:<tab>abt 1804 Age:<tab>54 Gender:<tab>Male Ethnicity/Race-/Nationality:<tab>Dutch Place of Origin:<tab>Holland, Netherlands Port of Departure:<tab>Le Havre, France Destination:<tab>United States of America Port of Arrival:<tab>New York Port Arrival State:<tab>New York Port Arrival Country:<tab>United States Ship Name:<tab>Wm Nelson vs the event from the other record Name: Frederick Dressen Arrival Date: 6 Jul 1858 Birth Year: abt 1804 Age: 54 Gender: Male Ethnicity/Race-/Nationality: Dutch Place of Origin: Holland, Netherlands Port of Departure: Le Havre, France Destination: United States of America Port of Arrival: New York Port Arrival State: New York Port Arrival Country: United States Ship Name: Wm Nelson Strangely, both files show the last modified date and time stamp exactly the same, but they have different intellishare numbers. Just thought this 'might' be considered a bug. Personally I would like to see them automatically merged, but mabe others might have a ?reason? why they would not want them merged. If there is any workaround to have Legacy automatically ,erge these, let me know.
