Hello, I am new to Legacy, having changed from Brothers Keeper. One feature BK had does not seem to be available on Legacy, it may be but I may not have pressed the right buttons. After I have entered a spouse, who is named for eg. Alexander Paton and he gets his own number I then discover later he is the Alex Paton who is already on the database with his own number and is a 1st cousin to his wife. Then with Legacy I have to do a merge. With BK as soon as a name is entered a window pops up showing all similar names asking if the person we are trying to enter is one of those people. If the person shows up, one then just has to highlight the name and click enter. You may ask how we would know if we have the correct person, well, we may have has the original Alex married to a Sarah Unknown born at a particular place in a certain year as derived from a census and other information, say with a child of an unusual name. Is there some way I can set Legacy to do the same thing? Thanks, Pam
