Re: [LegacyUG] Book Printing

2019-10-10 Thread Cathy Pinner 

Jane,

In a Book Report, the text with the vital event information has the 
Individual Profile picture next to it. So the question is where would 
you put the vital event pictures without creating white space that can't 
be filled by the user? That so far has been the unanswerable question 
for decades.


When you attach a picture to a Custom Event, it's the user's choice how 
many notes they add to the event to fill up the white space.

Why would they be treated differently?

Vital events are those shown on the Individual Edit screen, Birth, Bapt/Chr,
Death and Burial. Those are treated differently from the events you enter
into the person or marriage event lists.

 Trevor,

 Look at the Report Options for the particular book you are wanting
 to create.
 Click the Report Options button
 On the Include tab you'll find Addr. ...
 On the Notes tab you'll find checkboxes for these notes.

 However, you can't include vital event pictures in a book.
 They are included, if chosen, in an Individual report or Family
 group report.
 If you want them auto added to a book, you need to link them to a
 custom event instead.

Re: [LegacyUG] Running compact family file

2019-10-10 Thread Chris Hill 

Hi

I would not run a Compact unless I was told that it was needed, 
which seems to be your case if Check/Repair asked you to do it. In that 
case, the report that Check/Repair produces might give an indication as 
to why. Your run times seem to be slow, but it would depend on the size 
of the file and your PC.


Just for a test I have duplicated my live database, currently 24676 
KB for 12000 people, and then compressed it. That only took a minute or 
so and reduced it to 23304 KB so it only got a 5% reduction.


Regards

Chris

Thanks for your advice, Chris.  I am such a novice at the ends and outs 
of Legacy, I panic when something weird happens.  I’ll stay away from 
Compact Family Records from now on.

Hi



That is good to hear. The Compact, ignore my earlier email, should not 
remove any information. All that it does is to compress the various 
tables to recover space that had been used by deleted entries.




Basically, Access never overwrites space that had been used by deleted 
records. It always just adds new data at the end.




I would not normally expect to use Compress unless I had been deleting 
a lot of records.

I set this in motion after a Check and repair told me to. There was an 
error (the number of which I cannot remember).  The little blue circle 
has been spinning for nearly 30 minutes. A drop down box, half of 
which I can’t read, tells me this can be time consuming, and that 
terminating can be .what? That part is off the screen.


How long will this take? At the very top left corner Legacy (not 
responding.)


Thanks for any advice.
