Re: [LegacyUG] Search and Replace in Source Detail, Name, Text/Comments
>From the main menu select Search->Search and Replace, or just type Ctrl-H. Then clickk on the field that says Surname and scroll down the field to the Notes field you want. This will do a global replace.

Re: [LegacyUG] Search and Replace in Source Detail, Name, Text/Comments
Thanks Christopher, without the explanation I would have got nowhere! For your information that is Source Detail Text/Comments. If you Search & Replace using Citation-Text you will be able to change them all. Ron Ferguson PS please use Plain Text on this list. _ New Tutorial: Embed Blogger RSS feed into your Website http://www.fergys.co.uk Includes the family tree for Alan J Grimshaw http://www.fergys.co.uk/Grimshaw/ For The Fergusons of N.W.

Re: [LegacyUG] Search and Replace in Source Detail, Name, Text/Comments
Christopher Barttels wrote I have been entering a ton of German church records recently. When I enter these records, I am usually entering text/comments into three fields; name, birth and baptism. This morning I noticed that one of the words I have been entering, "coningum" is actually "coniugum." This is in the name field, in relation to the parents. When I try "Search and Replace", I can't seem to find the correct "Find Where." You either want Citation-Text or Citation-omments, depending on where you actually typed the word. (Legacy sometimes abbreviates Master Source and Source Details to "Source" and "Citation" respectively.) -- Jenny M Benson Legacy User Group guidelines: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/Etiquette.asp Archived messages: http://www.mail-archive.com/legacyusergroup@legacyfamilytree.com/ Online technical support: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/Help.asp To unsubscribe: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/LegacyLists.asp

In the Family View, I click on the icon for "Show List of Assigned Sources", which brings up "Assigned Sources For:" I click on "Name" then click "Edit Detail", which brings up the "Edit Source Detail", and then click on the tab for "Text/Comments". This is where I am trying to change hundred-plus occurances of "coningum" to "coniugum." I hope this helps. Sorry for the confusion.
