This is a user's group for LEGACY and its add-on programs. This is stated in the second sentence of the Legacy User Group Guidelines at http://www.legacyfamilytree.com/Etiquette.asp (the link is on the page where you signed up to join the group)
The group was not created to promote other programs or for questions about using other programs. It was created for those "how-to" questions when you can't find the answers or figure out something The message about FTM (and your promo for AQ) should have gone off-list. Think about it - if you were selling Coke products, would you like someone to be promoting Pepsi on your website or mailing list?? The programmers are busy programming and don't follow the lists like they used to. In the Support section of the Legacy Home tab, you can send Support questions for technical support and Suggestions for new features or enhancing existing ones. Use that form if you wish to suggest Unicode or some other new feature. Sherry On Wed, May 3, 2017 at 1:30 AM, David Picken <[email protected]> wrote: > I support John’s way of thinking.
