 So far I can see very little reason to upgrade.

Legacy provides the best genealogy database I know of, and they ask so
little of me. They provide the free version for those who cannot afford
expensive software. They respond to our pleas for help. And I feel they
should be paid for their efforts.

Other programs update more often, and at higher prices. We get continual
free updates. The price for the upgrade is about like taking your family to
McDonalds. I think that years of excellent software is worth more than
McDonalds.

I could probably come up with more reasons.

So, although my resources are limited, and I don't go to McDonalds, I do
upgrade each time it is available.

I have 7.5 and 8 (De Luxe for both) on one computer - I have left the main
file with 7.5 until I have played with 8 to see what (if any) problems
there are. So far I have had a couple of hangs but in all I am loving the
new features - so many new bells and whistles to make life a little easier
by the looks of it. The share feature alone is worth its weight in gold to
me. I have no intention of moving my main file to 8 until I have thoroughly
tested it with my test file - it's purely for safety reasons!

RE: [LegacyUG] Clock Alarm feature

I also noticed a problem with the current time displayed  on the Alarm Center.  
It was 12 hours off - displaying PM when it should have been AM.  I thought it 
might just be mishandling the AM/PM indicator.  I switched to 24-hour clock 
(Option 4.8) and all seemed well.  This morning I switched back to the 12-hour 
clock and it seems to be OK.  I’ll have to check again in the 12 o’clock hours 
(eg 0030 and 1230) and see if the problem reoccurs.

I even managed to get Legacy to crash trying to turn off a Potential problem - 
not sure exactly what I did, now though, and it has'nt happened a 2nd time (but 
I have turned more off)

It seems strange to me that if I hover over the PP icon I get options to change 
my overall settings, but not to mark that particular possible problem as not an 
issue. Especially the gaps, there are loads I'd like to be able to switch off 
quickly; I know they're not a problem without clicking to see the details.

So many I may just turn off reporting for the gaps, good idea, but the numbers 
used just don't work for much of my tree. I wish I could change them, e.g. at 
one time most of the working class in England (i.e. most
people) were expecting a child when they married, so less than an 8 mth gap 
between marriage and 1st child's baptism was probably the norm, certainly very 
common. At other periods or classes it was rare, hence being able to the change 
from 8 mths would be useful.

Re: [LegacyUG] PP causing crashes

2013-11-27 Thread Teresa Goatham

If only genealogy were that simple! It can be very difficult to work out
who events belong to.
This is especially the case with earlier English burial registers, where
there is often nothing but a name, especially for a man (women were
often described as wife of ... or widow).

So I have found the burial I believe to be of my ancestor Nathaniel
Smith in 1681, but I could easily have got it wrong. If I subsequently
find additional info. suggesting that it was a different Nathaniel (it
was a name used repeatedly in the family) I don't wish to lose site of
the fact that I have evidence that he died before his wife - who died in
1692. Hence I have both events / sources attached to Nathaniel on my
tree. (And he is far from alone in being like this)

I would be grateful if you would explain the meaning of sting in the tail.
During testing a played around quite a bit with FS and noted quite an

[LegacyUG] Child List Indicator Bug

Here's one I think is a minor bug.

Have an individual with more than one spouse, children by at least one spouse, 
but no children by the preferred spouse.  In family view, where individual is a 
child, the child list indicator shows that the child has descendants (plus 
sign).  So far so good.

However, on the pedigree view, if you hover on the parent of the individual, 
the pop-up child list shows the individual with only the spouse indicator, 
apparently not looking beyond the preferred spouse to determine if there are 
further descendants.

Legacy will be delighted with your undoubted loyalty, you have not given me
one reason why I would spend money to upgrade.

For me, I need to see technical improvements, and/or, additional functions
which I need - not the same as mere additional functions!! As it is, V8.0
does give this, especially with Event Sharing, the return of the 5 sourcing
options, the loss of which was lamented by many of us, the improved Family
Search option (although I recognise the caveats with family trees) and I
really do like the new design options, and much more.

Are there things which I would have liked which are not there? Sure but
there is sufficient there to raise my interest.

 So far I can see very little reason to upgrade.

Legacy provides the best genealogy database I know of, and they ask so
little of me. They provide the free version for those who cannot afford
expensive software. They respond to our pleas for help. And I feel they
should be paid for their efforts.

Other programs update more often, and at higher prices. We get continual
free updates. The price for the upgrade is about like taking your family to
McDonalds. I think that years of excellent software is worth more than
McDonalds.

I could probably come up with more reasons.

So, although my resources are limited, and I don't go to McDonalds, I do
upgrade each time it is available.

Carl

RE: [LegacyUG] open file Legacy8

I see what you mean.  I set mine the other way (always use Windows) and now 
there does not seem to any way to get back to the original setting. The F1 on 
Open File only brings up help about the Family View screen, and I see nothing 
in Customize to affect this setting.

As you said, when you hover over a pp icon, you get options to change
settings. Do the Shift-Right Click and then go to the Gaps tab.  There you
can change the soon or long after marriage, and how soon or long between
children to be flagged as a problem.

I even managed to get Legacy to crash trying to turn off a Potential

2nd time (but I have turned more off)

It seems strange to me that if I hover over the PP icon I get options to
change my overall settings, but not to mark that particular possible problem
as not an issue. Especially the gaps, there are loads I'd like to be able to
switch off quickly; I know they're not a problem without clicking to see the
details.

So many I may just turn off reporting for the gaps, good idea, but the
numbers used just don't work for much of my tree. I wish I could change
them, e.g. at one time most of the working class in England (i.e. most
people) were expecting a child when they married, so less than an 8 mth gap
between marriage and 1st child's baptism was probably the norm, certainly
very common. At other periods or classes it was rare, hence being able to
the change from 8 mths would be useful.

Re: [LegacyUG] Legacy 8 Installation - GLBF797.tmp

2013-11-27 Thread John Magyari

Windows 7 sp1 Memory 6 meg Intel Core i7
No Antivirus installed
Legacy 8.0.0 build 353

I uninstalled Avast and the same error still exists preventing installation.
So Avast was not an issue here.

Installation aborts after screen
Skipping file
...\dao360.dll
Then GLBE253.tmp has stopped working

Legacy 7 and Legacy 7 Beta never had this issue on this machine.

Each attempt Temp name changes.

What info do you need, to determine why installation aborts and is
unsuccessful?

I only have one file. I always work in that one file. No risk of individuals 
being duplicated across a number of files with some files developing different

one file for sharing purposes.

RE: [LegacyUG] open file Legacy8

Sherry,

I don't think that is what Randy was referring to.  He was talking about the 
action of the File-Open File function.  By default, it asks if you want a list 
of Legacy Files or to use the Windows File Manager.  It also has options to say 
always use one or the other.  The problem is once you've chosen one of those 
Always options, you seem to be stuck with it.  There's nothing under File-Open 
File or under Customize to change or undo the selection.

I did find that Restore Legacy Defaults will reset the function of File-File 
Open.  However, that also wipes out any other customizations.  Tried getting 
around that by saving my customizations before resetting to Legacy defaults, 
but when I then restored my User Defaults, it also returned the File-File-Open 
action to the locked in mode.

An alternative that might work is to save customizations on a section by 
section basis, excluding the General Settings, then do a global reset to Legacy 
Defaults, and then restore each section of customized settings, and manually 
reset the General Settings.  This of course assumes that the File-File Open 
option setting is saved and restored with the General Settings even though 
there is no function to set/reset it on the General Settings list.

Randy,

Another workaround for you might be, with Legacy closed, to go to Windows file 
manager, find your .fdb file and double click it.  It should open in Legacy.  
Thereafter, it should be on that Legacy File List that your File-Open File 
function is locked in to.

RE: [LegacyUG] Legacy 8 Installation - GLBF797.tmp

2013-11-27 Thread Don Hanson

John,

Many anti-malware programs have ‘memory resident’ components. Uninstalling is 
only part of the process. The computer must be restarted after the uninstall 
for memory to be cleared of those components. Still others, are written to 
protect against malware uninstalling or disabling the program. Still others can 
not be removed using the ADD/REMOVE PROGRAMS in control panel (Avast! being 
one) For those you need to use a special uninstall program. You can find the 
one for Avast! on their website: http://www.avast.com/uninstall-utility. Be 
sure to follow the directions on that page, which includes starting Windows in 
Safe Mode before starting the utility and restarting the computer. Only then 
will you have uninstalled Avast!.



You may then be able to install Legacy 8. But…if you are installing from a 
download, not a CD, it’s possible that the downloaded file is corrupted. If 
installation fails after fully deleting Avast, download the installation file 
again.

I run Avast and I just installed Legacy 8.  No problems, no warnings.  It may 
not be the simplest anti-virus program to use but, as with all software, the 
more you learn about it the better it appears to become and the easier it 
becomes to use.

[LegacyUG] Shared events

2013-11-27 Thread Brant Gibbard

Has anyone had a chance to experiment with Shared Events, and if so, what
was your experience with it. I am particularly interested in seeing how
gedcom export is handled. To the best of my knowledge gedcom does not
intrinsically support shared events. What happens when a shared event is
exported to gedcom? Is a separate event made for each participant?  I ask
because I publish my data through TNG, and I would like to have some idea as
to whether shared events will cooperate with my scenario.

 Subject: RE: [LegacyUG] open file Legacy8

 Sherry,

 I don't think that is what Randy was referring to.  He was talking about
 the action of the File-Open File function.  By default, it asks if you
 want a list of Legacy Files or to use the Windows File Manager.  It also
 has options to say always use one or the other.  The problem is once you've
 chosen one of those Always options, you seem to be stuck with it.  There's
 nothing under File-Open File or under Customize to change or undo the
 selection.

 I did find that Restore Legacy Defaults will reset the function of
 File-File Open.  However, that also wipes out any other customizations.
  Tried getting around that by saving my customizations before resetting to
 Legacy defaults, but when I then restored my User Defaults, it also
 returned the File-File-Open action to the locked in mode.

 An alternative that might work is to save customizations on a section by
 section basis, excluding the General Settings, then do a global reset to
 Legacy Defaults, and then restore each section of customized settings, and
 manually reset the General Settings.  This of course assumes that the
 File-File Open option setting is saved and restored with the General
 Settings even though there is no function to set/reset it on the General
 Settings list.

 Randy,

 Another workaround for you might be, with Legacy closed, to go to Windows
 file manager, find your .fdb file and double click it.  It should open in
 Legacy.  Thereafter, it should be on that Legacy File List that your
 File-Open File function is locked in to.

Thanks Kathy and John.  I had no earlier data to use to check this out.  Sounds

Re: [LegacyUG] Legacy 8 Installation - GLBF797.tmp

John,
I suspect that the initial failed install is now blocking your PC from
installing Legacy.
GLBF797.tmp is not the installer. It is a temporary file created by the
downloaded installer program on your PC. If it is still sitting on your
PC, find it and delete it.
Then try restarting the installation with the Legacy8setup.exe file that
you downloaded. You might even want to start by downloading a new copy as
the copy you have may be incomplete.
If this does not work, then I suggest you contact support directly for
additional help.

Re: [LegacyUG] PP Alert Details Hang [was: Legacy 8]

Ron,

There is a problem with PP Alerts and Legacy hanging. It does not
happen for everyone. Only my GR build showed the problem.

I discovered that, if I renamed the USR file in [My Documents], the
problem goes away. This tells me that it is a conflict between
various settings.

If have forwarded the issue to developers.

Are you using the Free Avast AV or the Avast Internet Security? I

Re: [LegacyUG] open file Legacy8



Randy,
Legacy 8 has lots of flexibility with respect to files.
The first thing you need to do is go to option 12.5 to reset how you
select a new file.
I also have a lot of files. I have them in a folder on my D drive. That
is where I expect to find a file. So... I set Option 6.1 to that folder
and that is where Legacy always starts with the navigation.
Option 1.2 controls which Family file to open when you start
Legacy.
Now... do you see the big L in a circle on the top left? Click on that
and you will see the list of the last 10 Family Files that you have
opened.
Does this answer your question?
john.

Re: [LegacyUG] Delete 7.5?

2013-11-27 Thread Carl Cox


Carl,

Whilst I agree with your praise for the Legacy program, and I am sure that
Legacy will be delighted with your undoubted loyalty, you have not given me
one reason why I would spend money to upgrade.

For me, I need to see technical improvements, and/or, additional functions
which I need - not the same as mere additional functions!! As it is, V8.0
does give this, especially with Event Sharing, the return of the 5 sourcing
options, the loss of which was lamented by many of us, the improved Family
Search option (although I recognise the caveats with family trees) and I
really do like the new design options, and much more.

Are there things which I would have liked which are not there? Sure but
there is sufficient there to raise my interest.

Ron Ferguson


My comments had nothing to do with the new bells and whistles on an upgrade,
just that the laborer is worthy of his hire. We still get support from
Legacy, with or without the upgrades. I have no idea how the company is
doing financially, but I think the cost is less than most other programs,
and keeping them in business seems worthwhile to me. If I recall correctly,
my first taste of Legacy was around $50, and for my use of the program it
was well worth it, even though I am on a very limited budget. Others may see
it differently.

Carl

Sherry,
I don't think that is what Randy was referring to. He was talking
about the action of the File-Open File function. By default, it
asks if you want a list of Legacy Files or to use the Windows File
Manager. It also has options to say always use one or the
other. The problem is once you've chosen one of those Always
options, you seem to be stuck with it. There's nothing under
File-Open File or under Customize to change or undo the
selection.
I did find that Restore Legacy Defaults will reset the function of
File-File Open. However, that also wipes out any other
customizations. Tried getting around that by saving my
customizations before resetting to Legacy defaults, but when I then
restored my User Defaults, it also returned the File-File-Open action
to the locked in mode.
An alternative that might work is to save customizations on a section by
section basis, excluding the General Settings, then do a global reset to
Legacy Defaults, and then restore each section of customized settings,
and manually reset the General Settings. This of course assumes
that the File-File Open option setting is saved and restored with the
General Settings even though there is no function to set/reset it on the
General Settings list.

Randy,
Another workaround for you might be, with Legacy closed, to go to Windows
file manager, find your .fdb file and double click it. It should
open in Legacy. Thereafter, it should be on that Legacy File List
that your File-Open File function is locked in to.

The Legacy Shared Event Gedcom export is standard in the
sense that it is virtually identical to what Roots Magic does. We have
tested that RM Gedcoms with shared events can import into Legacy and vice

The problem for us TNG users is TNG. TNG does not support Shared Events.
I and others have raised the issue on the TNG Users list, but he has not
committed to implementing shared events. Until he does, I feel I cannot

I ask you and other on this list who use TNG to raise the request with

that two desk top apps have the functionality and implement Gedcoms the

Re: [LegacyUG] import Version 7 custom settings to V8

Sorry Gene,

You need to start from scratch. The customization approach is just
too different between the versions.

I work on two monitors. I opened L7.5 on one and L8 on the other and
just tried to map one set to the other.

Please note the Design menu in the top right. That is where you want
to start your customization. You control building your Toolbars from there.

RE: [LegacyUG] Shared events

2013-11-27 Thread Paul Gray

John,



Is the shared event actually maintained on export as a shared event and 
imported as such, or is it turned into separate events for each person? I 
wasn’t aware that the GEDCOM standard actually recognized “true shared events”, 
but if it does that’s a pleasant surprise. Or, maybe ‘custom’ or ‘non-standard’ 
tags are being used by both RM and Legacy.

Brant,

The Legacy Shared Event Gedcom export is standard in the sense that it is 
virtually identical to what Roots Magic does. We have tested that RM Gedcoms 
with shared events can import into Legacy and vice versa.

The problem for us TNG users is TNG. TNG does not support Shared Events. I and 
others have raised the issue on the TNG Users list, but he has not committed to 
implementing shared events. Until he does, I feel I cannot use this important 
new functionality.

I ask you and other on this list who use TNG to raise the request with TNG and 
maybe if enough people ask, it will get on his radar. Considering that two desk 
top apps have the functionality and implement Gedcoms the same, it would seem 
like it is something he should do.

It seems strange to me that if I hover over the PP icon I get options to
change my overall settings, but not to mark that particular possible problem
as not an issue. Especially the gaps, there are loads I'd like to be able to
switch off quickly; I know they're not a problem without clicking to see the

So many I may just turn off reporting for the gaps, good idea, but the
numbers used just don't work for much of my tree. I wish I could change
them, e.g. at one time most of the working class in England (i.e. most
people) were expecting a child when they married, so less than an 8 mth gap
between marriage and 1st child's baptism was probably the norm, certainly
very common. At other periods or classes it was rare, hence being able to
the change from 8 mths would be useful.

You can find the list of recent files in one of two places, depending on
the choice you made for the style under the design setting in the upper
right, For Office 2007 styles the recent files are, as C.G. said, found

choice you made for the style under the design setting in the upper right, For 
Office 2007 styles the recent files are, as C.G. said, found by click the big 
L. For the Office 2010 style however the recent file list is found on the 
System menu item.

Sorry, no option to pin favourites to the recent file list though.

[LegacyUG] Extra icon for Add Person

2013-11-27 Thread Richard Van Wasshnova

My iconic menu bar has 2 identical icons for Add Person except the first
has no drop down menu so is unusable. (Win 8 standard) I don't see a way to
remove the useless icon.

Re: [LegacyUG] PP Alert Details Hang [was: Legacy 8]

2013-11-27 Thread Brian/Support

The clicks all work for me in 8.0.0.353. I tried both with Legacy
8.0.0.353 running in Standard Mode (Where Potential Problems lists are
not available) and in Deluxe.

In standard mode the click brought up a Deluxe only feature screen
telling me potential problem lists are a deluxe feature. Right click and
Shift right click brought up the screens to either exclude the problem
for the individual or the main setting screen to change the criteria for
the entire file.

In Deluxe mode the click produced the potential problem list instead of
the deluxe feature screen.

The problems that I checked were:

1. a gap problem, child born more than 48 months after previous child
(called from the PP indicator on the child in family view)
2. Burial date before death date (called by clicking on the PP indicator
for the person as husband in main family view)
3. an event date after death date. (called from the PP indicator in the
event list)

 As you said, when you hover over a pp icon, you get options to change

 So many I may just turn off reporting for the gaps, good idea, but the

 e.g. at one time most of the working class in England (i.e. most

 between marriage and 1st child's baptism was probably the norm, certainly 
 very common. At other periods or classes it was rare, hence being able to the

RE: [LegacyUG] Shared events



Paul,
The shared event Gedcom tags are proprietary tags. Gedcom 5.5.1 knows
nothing of Shared Events.
Many vendors have agreed on certain standard proprietary
tags. Agreed may be too strong. They look at how other vendors handle it
and mimic the same implementation. You see on several features outside
the standard. 
And most vendors - including Legacy - tweak their Gedcom import depending
on what software is the source of the Gedcom. For instance, Legacy has a
lot of special code for importing Family Tree Maker Gedcoms as they are
so different from the standard. The source is embedded in the
Gedcom.

Is the shared event actually maintained on export as a shared event and

wasnât aware that the GEDCOM standard actually recognized âtrue

âcustomâ or ânon-standardâ tags are being used by both RM and

Brant,
The Legacy Shared Event Gedcom export is standard in the
sense that it is virtually identical to what Roots Magic does. We have
tested that RM Gedcoms with shared events can import into Legacy and vice
versa.
The problem for us TNG users is TNG. TNG does not support Shared Events.
I and others have raised the issue on the TNG Users list, but he has not
committed to implementing shared events. Until he does, I feel I cannot
use this important new functionality.
I ask you and other on this list who use TNG to raise the request with
TNG and maybe if enough people ask, it will get on his radar. Considering
that two desk top apps have the functionality and implement Gedcoms the
same, it would seem like it is something he should do.

2013-11-27 Thread William Boswell

Same here.  I've used Norton AV products for years (currently Norton 360) and 
had no problems with Legacy 7.5 or with the new 8.0.  No problems with 
installation or use.



I stay away from the freebie AV programs.  Symantec who produces the Norton 
programs is a reputable company.



When I installed Legacy 8 Deluxe this morning, I didn't let the installation 
put it in Program Files.  I put it in the root directory of my C drive like I 
did with Legacy 7.5.  I also have Windows 7's User Account Control turned off 
which can interfere with a lot of programs.

I've used Norton's since day one on the internet and never have any problems 
downloading reputable programs like Legacy.  Just downloaded Legacy 8 and again 
it went smooth as butter.

Gene,

Are you using the Free Avast AV or the Avast Internet Security? I
believe the problem is with the Internet Security version only. Some
of the secondary Windows issues are only appearing with Win 7 and above.

Re: [LegacyUG] Shared events

Cheryl,

In principle I don't think that the circumstances under which shared events
are being used is little different to yours.

However, if one wishes to transfer the shared the events to a (non-Legacy)
webpage then a GEDCOM is most likely to be used. Hence the importance of the
GEDCOM question - no transfer and the data is not published.

Well that is certainly wierd. Just checked mine again also, and it is now the 
correct time. Other beta testers couldn't see the problem even though I 
submitted images as proof; but that has been seen before where there is a 
problem others are unable to duplicate. We do our best amongst the frustration. 
Will keep an eye on it though, but all seems good now for me as well.

[LegacyUG] Run-time error 2147024726

2013-11-27 Thread lio .

Not sure if this is right place, but good to know if it is happening to anyone 
else.

I just clicked on the Legacy Home tab. Nothing was listed under Legacy News, 
but there a sentence telling me I had to be connected to the internet (my 
computer is always connected). I clicked on that sentence and received the 
error below as Legacy crashed/closed. This is the second time it has happened 
(two different computers):

Run-time error '-2147024726 (800700aa)':
Automation error
The requested resource is in use

After this I reopened Legacy 8, and Legacy News on the Legacy Home Tab was 
populated properly.

Re: [LegacyUG] Shared events

2013-11-27 Thread Dave Johnson

If you use Shared Events for Census records, and you transcribe the Census
Record as Geoff Described in his Webinar, you may not be satisfied with the
result.  It appears that any event that is shared cannot be modified.  It
appears that there is only one occurrence of the shared event.  So if I
want to highlight the head of the house in his/her Legacy record, and I
want to highlight each individual in the family in their Legacy records,
you cannot used a shared event.

At least that is what I have learned after trying several times.

You are correct Dave.  You are able to e.g. modify a shared event for one of
the children and that modification then affects all others who have the same
shared event.  However, you are able to use roles in combination with shared
event and thereby get closer to what you are talking about.

I use shared events alot in my family tree.  I really love this function
combined
with roles.

[LegacyUG] Children with 'double 's's????

2013-11-27 Thread elizabeth

I can't find what this means in the help file...

Some of the children for a man who was married twice have a symbol at the
end of their name that looks like 2 Ss on top of each other. It's a
'squiggly' looking thing,

I have tried unlinking the wives and children and reconnecting everybody
but no matter what I do that symbol is still there.

Can anybody tell me what it means and how to fix it?

Re: [LegacyUG] Options Selections

Kay,

In general, you want to read the help to see if
that give more information about the options.

Tagging - Yes, turn it on. I am surprised that it
was not on from the start. It has always with L8 been on by default.

FamilySearch Integration. I turn it on for the
cases where I want to look at the FamilySearch
module for more clues. When it is on, you will
see small gray left and right arrows next to
names in Family View and Pedigree View. If you
never intend to use FS, leave it off. You can
turn it on later without hurting anything.

RE: [LegacyUG] Shared events

Paul,

We can attach multiple copies of events in Legacy 7 using the
clipboard. But each of those is a separate copy, so if you want to
edit one, you have to edit them all.

A shared event means one copy that gets attached everywhere.

Think of the example of a census listing. The head of the household
would get the original event. Then you could share that event with
all of the other members of the household. But, you not only share
the event, but also assign a role that the other person plays - eg,
Family Member. You could also share it with someone who may not be in
your family file, like a boarder, servant etc who was in the
household, as a Member of Household. You could also share it with
the census enumerator. You can add notes specific to each sharing.

Baptisms, Weddings, and other such vital events can be shared.
However, you cannot share an event with a family, only individuals.

I created a Custom Event called Family Event. I used it for a
person's birthday event. I attached pictures from the event and did a
write-up in the notes about the event that shared it with each of the
people attending.

It's sounding as if others using it in some other way that my mind

Thanks.

Re: [LegacyUG] Children with 'double 's's????

 If I  am not mistaken (which is a big if), it means that they have no 
children.  I have two children and three step children.  Only one of those has 
the symbol you mention and he and his wife have no children.

Re: [LegacyUG] Legacy Version 8.0

2013-11-27 Thread Wendy Howard

Elizabeth,

You can install v8 without affecting v7, so you can download v8 Standard
and take a look at it before you make a decision about upgrading to deluxe.

Do make a copy of your database before opening it in v8 - the file will
be converted to a new format, so once you've done that you won't be able
to (easily) revert.  There is a prompt about this when you first go to
open the file, so all is not lost if you forget to do this first - as
long as you read and choose your option carefully at the time.

This is what I've done while I'm waiting for my Deluxe code to arrive.
Good to have it in front of me to see what others are talking about on
the list, if nothing else.

I like Sherry's suggestion of watching the new videos, and will be doing
that later on today once I've done some real work.  Have been catching
up on the 90+ posts on LUG while I have my breakfast, but time now to do
other things before I can come back and have another play with it all.  :-)

Kind Regards,
Wendy


Sherry/Support said the following on 28/11/2013 7:12 a.m.:
 Watch the Legacy For Beginners: video and the What's New in Legacy
 8.0 video on our website www.LegacyFamilyTree.com  Training  View

 That's a good way to see what v8 is all about.

RE: [LegacyUG] Delete 7.5?

2013-11-27 Thread Brian L. Lightfoot

I'm agreeing with all your observation and am left wondering why this wasn't 
called v7.6 instead of v8.0. Maybe I'm a purist at heart but in the past 
software marketers seldom increased a full digit unless it was a radical 
redesign especially of the user interface. And I would doubt that the 
incompatible database format would warrant such an incremental increase because 
I believe that's been done in the past without a full digit increase.

But regardless of those minor things, version 8 is here and time to enjoy it as 
written.

Carl,

Whilst I agree with your praise for the Legacy program, and I am sure that 
Legacy will be delighted with your undoubted loyalty, you have not given me one 
reason why I would spend money to upgrade.

For me, I need to see technical improvements, and/or, additional functions 
which I need - not the same as mere additional functions!! As it is, V8.0 does 
give this, especially with Event Sharing, the return of the 5 sourcing options, 
the loss of which was lamented by many of us, the improved Family Search option 
(although I recognise the caveats with family trees) and I really do like the 
new design options, and much more.

Are there things which I would have liked which are not there? Sure but there 
is sufficient there to raise my interest.

Re: [LegacyUG] Shared events

Dave,
I do not know how Geoff teaches that you transcribe a census event...
But, as I publish my research using TNG, I have to consider how the
Gedcom will export and import. Until TNG supports Shared events, I cannot
use them in my research.
As a result, I transcribe the census listing into the notes field. When I
export to Gedcom, I select the options to keep embedded codes, convert
them to HTML format, and make space strings web
friendly.
That said you, if you are doing this just for reports and want to use
shared events, you do this
1/ Add the person to the share
2/ Assign a role, create new role if needed.
3/ Then edit the Role where you can add a specific note relative to that
person in that role. You could copy the census transcription note to that
note and highlight it as you need.
Note that you have flexibility as to which or both notes are to be used
in sentences.
Now, if Geoff is teaching to put the transcription in a source, then, no,
I do not think you can do what you want to do.

[LegacyUG] Upgrade Email Question

2013-11-27 Thread Pamela Wile

Hello,



I'm patiently waiting for the email with the key for the upgrade.  I'm not
in a rush, but just wondered what the subject line will be.  I'm receiving
hundreds of emails from this list and don't want it to get buried and maybe
accidently deleted.

 I would be grateful if you would explain the meaning of sting in the tail.
 During testing a played around quite a bit with FS and noted quite an
 improvement as time went one, and I ended up quite happy with it.

What I was trying to say, slightly facetiously, was that the integration can be
a bit of a double-edged sword if used inappropriately. What we had was a novice
(in terms of FamilySearch experience) who might have blindly jumped in and wound
up corrupting their prized database with data from FamilySearch that was
mistakenly assumed to be relevant to them.

The two-way flow of data needs to be carefully controlled. I still only work
from what I can see on FamilySearch. I never upload my carefully researched data
to FamilySearch. I also find it tedious having to deal with each duplicate
separately because of the plethora of different extractions that the LDS have
done. There must be a better, simpler way of handling this aspect.
