Hi Jay, No, not really. What I was hoping for was a simple option switch to turn off the export of url links that the user can add through the Media Gallery. The GEDCOM code for a url link is:

Oh, thanks for the 'reminder' on how to open a GEDCOM file. After retiring from the military in late 1983, I spent nearly 30 years working on the technical side of Silicon Valley's high tech industry so do have a 'bit' of experience. I actually began moving 20 years of paper genealogy to computers (CPM+, later DOS, and much later Windows) after beginning in the computer industry many years ago. > I think the problem is in the gedcom imports on your other programs. <sigh> Wish I had a dollar for every time I've heard that during the nearly three decades I worked in Silicon Valley. The number of senior managers, developers, tech support, project managers, product marketing, etc. who have told me at one time or another that they handle 'this or that' and everyone else is wrong is staggering. Anyway, thanks for your response, Denise --------------------------------- Denise, I think the problem is in the gedcom imports on your other programs. Legacy always uses the same place location for linked images and that will will output the same in any resulting gedcom creation. What OTHER programs do with the same place images might be the problem you see.... Here is an example of some gedcom data (Always open a gedcom in a special text editor program line Notepad++ to properly see the data) You will see the same image is always outputted the same way..... --------------------------------------------------------------------- Legacy 7.5 gedcom output pieces 1 EVEN 2 TYPE 1940 Census 2 DATE 1940 2 PLAC Hudson Falls, Washington, New York, USA 2 OBJE 3 FORM jpg 3 FILE c:\wamp64\www\genealogy\census\census1940\z_cen_1940_ny_washington_hudson_fa lls_ed43_page26.jpg 3 TITL 1940 Census Hudson Falls, New York Page 26 3 _SCBK Y 3 _PRIM Y 3 _TYPE PHOTO 1 EVEN 2 TYPE Education - Elementary School 2 DATE 1942 2 PLAC Kaukauna, Outagamie, Wisconsin, USA 2 NOTE Holy Cross grade school class of 1942 3 CONT Glenn Wilpolt in 3rd row 2nd from right (#22) 2 OBJE 3 FORM jpg 3 FILE c:\wamp64\www\genealogy\photos\holy_cross_school_1942_eigth_grade_class_list .jpg 3 TITL Holy Cross Grade School - 1942 3 _SCBK Y 3 _PRIM Y 3 _TYPE PHOTO 1 EVEN Kaukauna Times Search entire gedcom lists all links to the same image.
