Re: [LegacyUG] LEGACY 8
All programs have 'unresolved issues'. :-) It is entirely your choice whether you download Legacy v8 and start looking around now, or wait for a later date to do so. If you're undecided about spending money on an upgrade, use it in the free Standard mode for a while before making up your mind. As has already been said several times now (most recently earlier today), Legacy v8 installs itself in a different location to previous versions, so it is possible to have both v8 and whatever you're using now (v7 in your case) running at the same time. Just don't try to open the same file in both programs - make a copy to open in v8 so you can still open the original in the older version. Kind Regards, Wendy Sid Ross said the following on 11/03/2014 4:38 p.m.: I am currently using legacy 7.5 and was considering an upgrade to Legacy 8. It would appear that v8 still has a lot of unresolved issues. Should I go ahead and upgrade or wait several more months be fore transitioning to v8. Also with respect to the manual, I agree that a PDF corrections update should be made available much the same way as the military updates it's technical manuals.

First of all, an 'upgrade' implies a replacement of what you've already got. Because it can be installed alongside Legacy 7.5, Legacy 8 should be regarded as a separate product. So, I would download the standard version for now and get to grips with it using copies of your own data. Then, when you're satisfied that it's stable enough for your use, purchase the upgrade and unleash the premium features. I would still not make Legacy 8 my main program until I was happy that the premium feature were at least as effective as their 7.5 counterparts. Only then would I move across to using Legacy 8 full time, but I'd still keep 7.5 around in case of problems. -- Regards, Mike Fry Johannesburg (g) Legacy User Group guidelines: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/Etiquette.asp Archived messages after Nov. 21 2009: http://www.mail-archive.com/legacyusergroup@legacyusers.com/ Archived messages from old mail server - before Nov. 21 2009: http://www.mail-archive.com/legacyusergroup@legacyfamilytree.com/ Online technical support: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/Help.asp Follow Legacy on Facebook (http://www.facebook.com/LegacyFamilyTree) and on our blog (http://news.LegacyFamilyTree.com).

Now click Save. Make sure that you select 2. APPLY THE CHANGES TO A NEW COPY OF THIS MASTER SOURCE. You don't want to accidentally pick the first option or you will overwrite the one you already have and then you will have a mess.

RE: [LegacyUG] Question - Cemetery or Tombstone as the source?
Slightly tongue in cheek but my favourite quote at the moment is from Geoff - 'What have you got in your hand?'. The answer in this case is a photograph so that should be the source and the source detail self evident. Cemetery burial records would be another source. Just a thought.

Re: [LegacyUG] Legacy failing to recognize my email address
Pat, Your email address should have nothing to do with downloading updates. You do not even need to provide an email address to download updates. If you are getting an invalid email address notice when trying to log into the Family Tree Webinars site, that means that the email address you are trying to log in with is not the same email address you originally registered with.

Re: [LegacyUG] Legacy failing to recognize my email address
Pat, Do you have a Family Tree Webinars subscription? Most of the webinars are only available for a brief period (I believe 7 days or less) after they have been presented. Registering for a webinar does not mean that you can watch the webinar anytime you desire unless you do have a subscription. By the same token, if you do not have a subscription, then you cannot use your email to log into the Family Tree Webinars site. You will only be able yo view the webinars that are currently free for viewing.

RE: [LegacyUG] Question - Cemetery or Tombstone as the source?
Graham, Thank you. I considered this approach. My concern is; If I take a couple of photos of a monument, say to get a closer shot of each spouse, do I end up having a bunch of sources, say Pic01.jpg, Pic02.jpg, and Pic03.jpg? Are individual photos my sources, or is the collection of photos gathered together from one cemetery trip and stored together (digitally) my source? If I went this route, I would cite my source as a photo album of tombstone photos and have a photo album for each cemetery. That is how I store them now. My hierarchy on my storage drive is Country - State - County - City - Cemetery Name - Date I believe that photos are just a method of transcription. They can limit some types of errors.

Re: [LegacyUG] Legacy failing to recognize my email address
Pat, Thank you. Initially may I make it clear that I do not know why you are hitting the download problems. I can, therefore, only suggest what I would do under your circumstances, rather than give a proven resolution for the problem. I would start by forgetting about updating and consider a complete reinstall. To this end I would uninstall v. 8.0.0.358. I have thought quite a bit about this, as I realise that it is the only working version of v 8.0 which you have. Nevertheless, I think it would be advisable. It will not affect your data etc. which is now stored in your documents. Then download the full version of the current version (v 8.0.0.414) from the web. It will ask for your email address (any will do) and do let it download until complete – keep an eye on the progress, and if it stops leave it until it restarts. Then install. Please let us know the outcome.

RE: [LegacyUG] Duplicate ID Numbers Software Problem?
Curious. I tried on my database which is about the same size and it only found 12 duplicates and all seem to be correctly identified. The duplicated id shows in the title line of duplicates window.

Re: [LegacyUG] Duplicate ID Numbers Software Problem?
I applied the RINs preceded by RIN- to my database of about 5,000. I had used the ID field years ago when inputting data on my maternal grandparents descendants from a report created by a cousin at a family reunion so there were some manual IDs in the file as well, it was a spreadsheet and I used the line number for each person as their ID number. A duplicate ID field search found 296 duplicates. The first dozen I checked were all valid duplicate ID numbers because the spreadsheet had both husbands and wives on the same line number.

The 220 set count include MRINs where the ID was set as well as the 160 individual RINS. The Sample database has 60 marriages and 160 people for a total of 220.

RE: [LegacyUG] Source Citation; multiple sources on clipboard
Thanks Cathy and Jenny; I get it now. . I somehow missed those 2 points, the right click on the source/save, and the copy to source clipboard at the bottom left. That helps immensely to be able to copy an assigned source to re-use for a specific family. I was using the prompt for detail, I understood that part, just was using the wrong save button and thus was losing my typing entries, and not the copy button at the bottom! I appreciate your time to help Sincerely, Pam -Original Message- From: Cathy Pinner [mailto:genea...@gmail.com] Sent: Sunday, March 09, 2014 11:37 PM To: legacyusergroup@LegacyUsers.com Subject: Re: [LegacyUG] Source Citation; multiple sources on clipboard Hi Pam, I haven't seen the presentation but I think you misunderstood unless there is a change coming that Geoff has and beta testers don't have. You can avoid having all the sources added if you have prompt for detail checked - but once you cancel that's it - the rest of the sources on the multiple source clipboard are not attached. Try it out on the Sample database or some other test database. I think the multiple source clipboard is an abomination and I wouldn't use it for anything - in fact I can't think of a case in my own research when it could be useful. So I use the single source clipboard constantly. How do I change back to another source without retyping? If I know I'll want to use it again soon, or it is a source I often use, I SAVE it and then LOAD it to the clipboard when I want to use it again. 10 sources can be saved in this way. If I didn't realise I'd want it again and so haven't saved it, then I find the person where I used it and go to their Assigned Sources page. Highlight it and then use the Copy to Source Clipboard button on the bottom left of that screen. If you haven't got Prompt for Detail always checked, you will need to then click the triangle of the Source Clipboard if you need to make any changes to the Source Detail or change the Recorded Date. However, it's worth updating. The cautious wait a few days after the release of a build. If there's any real problem, it will be followed within a day or two with another build.

Anyway, it looked like, from his demo, now?  we can pick and choose which of the 5 sources on the clipboard we want to “sourceâ€, instead of them ALL being pasted at once. . is this new since the lastest build(s)? Or did I misunderstand him? What he showed (e.g. select one source from list),  doesn’t work for me, ( I am using the build from March 9, is that build 367? (not listing correctly in my download but that is another issue). It still pastes all sources to whatever event or person is applicable where I am working. So did I misunderstand his demo . .or I’m not doing it right?  I know they’ve been working on this issue, but hadn’t read about any changes. . .if this is not true, how do people handle having to go back to another previous source WITHOUT pasting/copy/retyping multiple lines of information?). I know I could make a SEPARATE new master source for everything, (I do it for census items,  it’s not that hard to redo w/ cut/paste w/ census information)  but for individual family sources,  I was trying to combine sources that are similar and easily copy specific data(e.g. a specific case or ID #, multiple line items) relevant to that particular family or situation, instead of adding thousands of similar master sources, just to prevent having to do a search and find and retype of the same source again later, when I already have it detailed for another family member. (not sure if I’m explaining myself very well. . feel free to ask for a better explanation)   I also  tried double clicking  on the previous (duplicate) source,  for example, for that previous family member in the  individual assigned source detail line, brings up the source, but that doesn’t save to the clipboard(would that be an easier change from a programming standpoint than changing the multiple source function on the clipboard?) Or, how do other people do this differently? I can figure out my own workarounds if there isn’t a better way, but wondered if I’m missing something. Or, maybe, if this is as shown in the seminar, I just need the newest build?

[LegacyUG] Recording changes of residence
I'm trying to get some ideas for recording changes of residence for an individual. Similarly, though not the same, how might we record knowledge that a person lived at address A in year Y? In Legacy's Master Event Definition List are some possible event names (Land, Property, Immigration, Emigration), though I don't quite like any of them for reflecting either a change of residence within a country or that we know the person lived at address A in a given year. The Census event would seem fine for indicating the latter based on a census, but that is too specific and is rather arbitrary just to handle knowledge of a person's location based just on a census source. I added a Residence event to the list, but I am not particularly happy about that as it doesn't address a move. Any good ideas for handling this? Am I missing something?

I can, therefore, only suggest what I would do under your circumstances, rather than give a proven resolution for the problem. I would start by forgetting about updating and consider a complete reinstall. To this end I would uninstall v. 8.0.0.358. I have thought quite a bit about this, as I realise that it is the only working version of v 8.0 which you have. Nevertheless, I think it would be advisable. It will not affect your data etc. which is now stored in your documents. Then download the full version of the current version (v 8.0.0.414) from the web. It will ask for your email address (any will do) and do let it download until complete - keep an eye on the progress, and if it stops leave it until it restarts. Then install.

[LegacyUG] A simple place-name question
When recording the place of an event, we should record it as it was at the time of the event, rather than as it would be referred to today. In that case, how should we refer to the American Colonies as a group for events taking place before the United States became a nation (maybe just American Colonies?). And, at what date did the crossover from that name to United States take place? Thanks!

Re: [LegacyUG] Recording changes of residence
Roger: I enter a Residence Event for each residence. You can include the date the full address as part of the Event or in the Notes of the event. When a person moves to another location, I add a new Residence Event with the new date and new address. This becomes part of the individual's chronology or life store as to where that person lived. This information also allows you to Map Family that shows a nice graphic of where the person has lived and events have taken place. An example using Census information as the source would look like the following: 1900 Jun 20Residence:USA, IA, Wapello Co, Columbia. 1910 Jul 1Residence:USA, KS, Cowley Co, Pleasant Valley. 1920 Jan 2Residence:USA, OK, Kay Co, Vernon.

Re: [LegacyUG] Recording changes of residence
The current residence is added using the Address icon. Consider that as your current address book. Historical residences are added using the Residence event.

Re: [LegacyUG] keyboard shortcut for the Index (not Name List)
Bob, Thank you very much. I thought i had tried them all, but apparently I missed that one.

[LegacyUG] Website Creation: Event Notes Privacy Brackets
I’ve just amended the Event notes for a particular event for my website, because of a complaint about privacy issues. It’s a Military Service event with date and place filled. I’ve amended the Notes with double brackets around the offending lines, but when I create the web pages the whole event disappears. I can do that with making the whole event “Private”. But I only wish to take out the so-called disputed statement and keep the title of the event and one sentence in the Notes. Any thoughts?

Re: [LegacyUG] problem with Legacy 8, build 412 and up
A bolded name means it is on the Preferred Direct Line (when the last box in OptionsCustomize3.8 is checked). Look at the P column in Edit Children to see the + and * indicators that can appear left of a name (not to be confused with + on the right side of a name). Help filesSearchSiblings List explains What are those characters? which can also be reached with the Help button on the Edit Children window. Unchecking that option will un-bold the preferred direct line names. Apparently, the preferred direct line is stored somewhere in the database because if you again check the box, the names are bolded again without having to run ToolsSet Direct Line. I just tried both ways and the current release seems to function as expected. What is not functioning yet is the bolding in Descendant tab. Also, the preferred direct line is not bolded in the Spouse/Child or Siblings Lists in Pedigree tab but they do have the left side +. I believe that the preferred direct line names should only be bolded on all screens when the option is checked and they should have the left side + when the option is unchecked. Another check box is probably needed in 3.8 so that one box would be similar to what it is now Bold direct-line children names in lists and a box Show plus sign left of direct-line children names in lists. Then the user could select none, bold, +, or both. The important thing is that the notation would be consistent across all displays.

Seems to me I’ve seen other messages commenting that there is no way to undo this. You might be able to get around it by creating a new unlinked dummy person, do a Set Direct Line as Preferred on that person, and then delete it.

I have been all through option 3.8 in the customization to no avail. I set Use + at the end of name to indicate spouses and continued lines. the other 3.8 options are unchecked, which can cause bolding. However, some of the names in the Children lists still come out bolded, with no seeming rhyme or reason as to why they do. I have wiped out version 8 and reinstalled , to no avail. I have tried resetting options to Legacy default, to no avail. I do not believe this was occurring before build 412. Any ideas? Thanks. Chuck.

Re: [LegacyUG] A simple place-name question
By your reasoning (and apparently most traditional genealogists), what would be the location description for the place we call Boston, Massachusetts today if the event happened in 1690? or for New Orleans, Louisiana in 1802? or for Jacksonville, Florida in 1720? After working for many years with master code databases, I am very familiar with the ability to have a current code/location easily converted to how it may have been designated in some other time frame or language. A good example is how AniMap works. In the university files, it is necessary to have codes that represent various things. The code 26782 might be interpreted as Intermediate Math from 1965 thru 1973 and then the same code meant German Literature from 1974 to 1992. By combining the code with the date the computer can easily and quickly report the correct interpretation. The same logic is done regularly with locations. It is much easier and usually more accurate to specify the current location than to try to determine the right designation for a long past time frame. I believe that computer programming will evolve that will resolve this genealogical school of thought difference in much the same way that it is used in industry and education.

In that case, how should we refer to the American Colonies as a group for events taking place before the United States became a nation (maybe just American Colonies?). And, at what date did the crossover from that name to United States take place? Thanks!
