Re: [LegacyUG] Portrait Picture
Glynn, If I've understood correctly, you need to go to Options - Customise 8.9 and untick If there is no individual picture, show any other picture associated with birth, death or events. If you don't like the silhouettes when you don't have an individual picture, this is also where you get rid of them, if you do like them and don't have them, this is where you turn them on. Cathy Paul Gray mailto:graypa...@outlook.com Sunday, 25 May 2014 9:02 AM Try this. In the media gallery, I suspect the new file has become the ‘preferred’ picture (I know it’s not a picture, but) Select the photo you want, then Options then Set as Preferred. Does this work?

Re: [LegacyUG] How to find
Hi Jay, This is an interesting one as you can't search on Age at Death. I think Age of Death is something that is calculated when called rather than being stored in the database. Use the Name List Print where you can add Age at Death to the data to be included. Include at least RIN, Name of person, Age at Death. Save as a csv Open the csv in a spreadsheet like Excel. Then sort the Age at Death column. There's your people who have died at 100 or more. However this isn't going to find people still alive who are over 100. To find them, you'll also be finding people for whom you haven't a death date. On a copy of your database, you could use Advanced Set Living changing the age at which to presume dead to 100 - and get the list of people changed. Note I say a copy as you don't want to be marking dead people who are still alive. This tool picks up a mix of people including those with no dates whose surrounding relatives show they must be dead and those with a birth date that would make them 100 but who don't have a death date. It would be a good idea to run this at your normal cut off age first to limit the list to those more possibly in your target group. The default is 120. I usually lower this slightly but not down to 100. To get some but not all, there is the new Family File Statistics Tool Perhaps you'd like to put in a request for something easier. Cathy Jay 1FamilyTree mailto:1familytree@gmail.com Sunday, 25 May 2014 8:22 AM How can I create a report of persons who lived past 100? I am hoping someone may already have created one.

Re: [LegacyUG] Marriage Event Issue
Hi Wes, Two issues causing you problems I think though I'm not exactly clear what you are doing as you are giving a Marriage sentence - but that is built in but can be varied a little at Options Customise 8.7 or using the Wording tab in the Marriage Information. The normal is say Amanda married Brad (full name), son of X and Y on date in place. If you don't use the normal place to enter the marriage details, I think you'll get unexpected results. You'll still get a built in marriage sentence of some sort. So I'm not clear where you found the sentence definition you quote. Perhaps you have got into the Shared Marriage sentences for Witnesses and Clergy? Or Alt. Marriage? Wherever you are, First Issue: when you look at the Event Sentence Definitions, note that you can look at a preview for Male, Female or Marriage. I think you haven't changed it to look at the preview for a Marriage Event. Second Issue: There is currently a bug in the [CoupleFirstNames] in that it is r eturning the female name twice - in your case Amanda and Amanda - in the reports rather than on the preview. This has been fixed in the current Beta so should be fine in the next update.

No. With the later GRO Death Registrations (I have no experience of non-UK shenanigans), an age is given. An Age at Death event could be generated from that. Alternatively, generate a Death Registration event and record the age there. This has the advantage that when an actual Death Certificate is obtained, a second age can be recorded, leaving the automatically calculated age (on the Individual's window) to be calculated using the Death Date. Without an event of some kind, age at death can not be determined unless you have two dates: birth or baptism and death or burial. Even then, the accuracy of this calculation is always going to give rise to one problem or another. Baptisms do not necessarily occur near the time of birth. Burials may not happen within an acceptable period of death - coroner's inquests can be notorious for this. Given the database tables structure of the family file, it's a fairly simple programming task (for those that can) to generate an Age at Death event. At least, it would be for me :-) -- Regards, Mike Fry Johannesburg 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).

Re: [LegacyUG] How to find
Hi Jay, Did you see my solution? I haven't seen a comment on it. Far easier than all the data entry that Mike is suggesting, though, when found you may want to enter an event for those who did live to be 100. And none of that helps you find what you want NOW. Of course if you can manipulate an Access database, all sorts of things are possible but I've never bothered to learn as I can do most things I want from within Legacy. The Name List Report can include Age of Death. Creating the csv and opening it in a Spreadsheet is a simple thing to do. The way to find living over 100 is a bit round about but it should work by narrowing the group you need to consider.

Re: [LegacyUG] How to mass edit Source Detail.

Isn't that the same as the way a Master Source is used? You have the same record with multiple citations with a Master too. Think of it like an ability to have sub-sources or secondary sources. There are the occasional singular source details where you only use them once, but there are many that are used several times. In my case, it was a copy of a Bible record that came in a packet of other source papers by a cousin. The said Bible record is all on one page and lists names with marriages, but nothing else. So the source detail isn't unique, everyone listed on that page will have the same source detail. The sad part is, doing a search for text doesn't work either. If I have written Marriage only; not date nor place there is no way to search for all records that have that written in the source detail. Nor is there a way to Search using a Master Source that has the source detail text either. There should be a way, don't you think?

Re: [LegacyUG] How to find
Cathy, Your solution is the best way to currently find what I need. Like you, I can usually find anything I need within Legacy, or LTools. Thanks for reminding me the export, sometimes the simplest answers are overlooked. It does bring to mind however, that it surprises me there is no centralized listing of SQL queries that the thousand of Legacy users have created and used on their own over the years, I do remember somehow MANY years ago, I had calculated that less than 2/10 of 1 % of persons in my rather large database lived past 100, so that is why I have always set 100 as dead if older than age.

[LegacyUG] How to find persons who lived past 100?
Tools, Statistics, Longest Living Individuals, Edit Individual. Not what you want, but it shows me some problems. I just sent the following to Legacy Enhancements, legacyenhanceme...@gmail.com . Tools, Statistics, Longest Living, Edit Individual See the attachment. Then should be able to Select, go to Pedigree Chart, then FS or Ancestry, etc., to research, edit. Then go back and run the Statistics report again and repeat until obvious errors are fixed. I have one where the person lived over 1000 years! Other errors obvious. Worthwhile report. Can you add the option to find everyone who lived over 100 years, etc.? Then tag their record?

Re: [LegacyUG] Problems with locating changed image filenames
Renaming files from the Picture Center is still not working for me. When I rename a file I have to relink it to each place it was attached. I have hundreds of files I want to rename and can't possibly go through each and re-link. If no one else is having this problem I will email support. -- Kirstin On 4/16/2014 5:26 AM, Cathy Pinner wrote: The damage has been done if you've renamed photos outside of Legacy. The continual changing of folders is frustrating. The lesson is that if you have to rename photos (and I realise that over time we do need to if we've developed a system or a new system) then the best way to do the renaming is from the picture centre (Tools - Picture Centre) so that you don't lose the links. However, if you can do a bulk rename to change naming system, then that may be no help. You have to decide what is the quickest way.

That is, if I understand you correctly. when I click on Browse for the file yourself Legacy goes immediately to Folder B -- over and over again. Try seeing if somehow the default media file was changed. Go to Options Customize Locations and see what you have selected for 6.2 Default Location for Media Files. Try selecting Folder A and see if that helps you. I understand what you're saying too. There are a lot of tedious issues that come along with this. My Locations frustration was a migraine for days! Good luck and hope that helps a little bit. :) Cindy 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).
