Re: [LegacyUG] Documents

[2needles]

I include my file number in the description for each of my media files in 
Legacy. When I print a report, i will have to look up which one, I get bullet 
points of events with a thumbnail of the image and the file number as a caption.

I use Evernote and tag each document with the people it connects too. I find it 
a faster way to find all the documents and files related to an individual. It 
also serves as off site backup and I have access to it from any device. I can 
save files for off line viewing.

Re: [LegacyUG] Documents

[Cathy Pinner]

Gary,

You can get a list from the scrapbook for a particular individual.

It really depends on whether the media is attached to the individual or 
to a source.


To see all media attached to a particular individual minus any media 
that may be attached to one of their sources click the Gallery icon on 
Family View or their Individual Information screen and from the drop 
down list at the top move up to All. The All is hidden :( so you may not 
realise it's there.

I store all my documents in the format -mm-dd (if known)

have a birth record, marriage record, death notice, and a will. These
would look like this:
1910-01-28 Brown,Henry (990) - birth cert
1932-07-13 Brown,Henry (990) - marriage cert

What I've been mulling around is something for Henry Brown (Legacy ID
990) that would include his INDIVIDUAL sheet, or FGS, with any
documents associated with his ID #.

Thus, what I'd like is a 'container/report' for Henry Brown (990) his
INDIVIDUAL SHEET, (or FGS) with all 5 of these documents in it.

The only solution I've come up so far would be to manually create a
separate 'portfolio' for each individual in my database that would
contain this information.

I did take a look at CLOOZ and it looks like it might might have some
promise. AND, the scrapbook option needs to be checked out further.

Then again perhaps, my idea is a pie in the sky and fool hardy and

One or both of those should help. With the print from the

How are you wanting to use these scanned documents?

What format have you used for these scanned documents? Are
they scanned as a graphic or are they in PDF format or a
combination of formats?

Are you wanting to combine all of the documents pertaining to
each individual into a single file, with the first page being,
for instance, a printout something like the Legacy Individual

this be geared toward a printed hard copy or something that

Re: [LegacyUG] Documents

Gary,
You can see from the responses that we're not sure what you want to do.

If you want a list of all media linked in Legacy and who it's linked to, 
then in Legacy go to View - Scrapbook choose your options and then click 
Print Media File List and on that next screen make sure you at least 
check "include description of what media is linked to"


If you want a list of everything you've scanned, then you need a 
program/utility that will print a directory. It's awhile since I've used 
one. In Windows 10 I find I can copy a list from File Explorer and paste 
it into something after I've copied something else from my clipboard 
extender program. I use Spartan from http://m8software.com/ but I'm sure 
the free version would work as well. But that's only the filename + 
path. So you'd probably want a proper utility. Karen's Directory Printer 
was one of the best and worth trying - but I'm out of date.


One or both of those should help. With the print from the Scrapbook in 
Legacy, you'll see you can just choose a tagged group. With thousands it 
would probably be more helpful to print for particular family lines.
Note if you get inspired to change filenames, you permanently break the 
link in Legacy. The only way to change filename and not break the link 
is to use the Legacy Picture Centre to rename. That only works for image 
formats.

Re: [LegacyUG] Documents

You can create a "Scrapbook" (View ribbon) and include all graphics
you've linked to in your Family File. However, if you've linked
document files (doc, PDF, xls), those can't be printed ou.

Also, from Scrapbook, you can print a Media File List so you can see a
list of all the files you've linked to.

[LegacyUG] Documents

[Gary Crull]

I've been doing genealogy for over 35 years, having gathered a vast number
of documents - birth/death/marriage certificates and licenses, obituaries,
wills, probate info, newspaper articles etc -  some original, other's
secondary.

I computerized back in the dark ages of personal computer technology (early
70's) with an IBM PC Jr and a floppy disk, two if you could afford it!
Thus, NO availability of storing anything on the computer. As technology
advanced and scanners became available I scanned everything I had collected
to new computers with ample HD's as well as adding new scanned information.

I was a late comer to LEGACY having used 3-4 other software products that
went out of business over the years forcing me to upgrade to newer
products. My last upgrade a few years back was to Legacy (v7.0) and I love
it having kept updates to the present V9.0.

My problem, question??

I have several thousand scanned documents stored on my HD that I have
linked to individuals in my Legacy database. Is there any way of preparing
an output document that would show the individual AND any/all supporting
documents gathered over decades of collecting? I'm not inclined at this
stage of life to even attempt transcribing this supporting information in
to any templates available in Legacy!

Suggestions are welcome.

Re: [LegacyUG] MyHeritage - not free

[Dennis Murphy]

Amen Pauline; automatic renewals should be outlawed. I guess they think we
are all too stupid to check credit card statements. Perhaps it's just
another covert method to separate folks from their money in this all too
capitalistic society. Now even the internet is a bad as TV with pop-up
commercials to BUY, BUY, BUY. Genealogy used to be an enjoyable pastime;
thank you corporate America for ruining it. Go buy another politician and
leave us alone!
