Re: [LegacyUG] Legacy 10?

2022-01-24 Thread Cathy Pinner 

Chris,

It's some time since I tried out RootsMagic direct import of Legacy. It 
was with RootsMagic 7. It made a mess of a number of things including 
sources. I got a much better result using a Gedcom. I recall another 
beta tester reporting a better result using a Gedcom as well. His 
concern was not with sources.


So for those wanting/needing to move on from Legacy, I suggest you use a 
gedcom for the transfer or check very thoroughly. How well direct import 
will work will depend on which features of Legacy you use. I use a lot 
of them so I'm not thinking of changing software.

Interesting that their website says "Roots Magic can directly import 
data from PAF, Legacy, TNG or Family Origins. It also imports GEDCOM 
files .". That would imply that it can access the Legacy database 
and should be able to copy the media links.


BUT, their support site says that you need to generate a GEDCOM from 
Legacy and import that.


So, which one is correct?

If RootsMagic is installed on the same computer and your images linked 
in Legacy remain where they are, there will be links included in your 
GEDCOM file used to move your Legacy data. Once imported into 
RootsMagic, this program will find the images, based on the links. If 
you then, at some point, move or rename these linked images, you will 
encounter the same situation as you would in Legacy. RootsMagic, like 
Legacy, only links to the images.

I know this is off topic, but when you migrate from Legacy to Roots 
Magic, is there a way to transfer everything, meaning what's in the 
Media Gallery? The only way I know how to transfer to another platform 
like Roots Magic is a gedcom and from what I understand, media does 
not get included.

Yes, that is the platform I'll be using.  RM8 seems to be a 
significant improvement over RM7.  Its global search and replace 
feature will allow me to easily correct the spelling errors caused by 
the lack of unicode support in Legacy.

When I created my RM 8 File by importing from my Legacy 9 file, all the media links were broken. But, I discovered that it’s easy to reset all the links ... With the file open in RM 8, select the Media tab from the left. In the Multimedia window, elect the 3 dots on the right (next to the trashcan), select “Fix broken media links, then point RM to parent folder or drive where the media files here.

There will be links to the images. As long as you don’t move your images
that are linked to Legacy, RootsMagic will find them, once you import your
DEDCOM into RootsMagic. This is assuming you are installing RootsMagic on
the same computer hard drive where your Legacy resides.

I imported my Legacy 9 database into RootsMagic 8.  All the linked media
came along with the imported data.  I did not export my Legacy data to
Gedcom, but instead used the import feature of RM8.  It has import
functions for most major software packages like Legacy and Family Tree
Maker.

If RootsMagic is installed on the same computer and your images linked in
Legacy remain where they are, there will be links included in your GEDCOM
file used to move your Legacy data. Once imported into RootsMagic, this
program will find the images, based on the links. If you then, at some
point, move or rename these linked images, you will encounter the same
situation as you would in Legacy. RootsMagic, like Legacy, only links to
the images.

Re: [LegacyUG] Legacy 10?

2022-01-24 Thread Gloria DeSousa 
I know this is off topic, but when you migrate from Legacy to Roots Magic,
is there a way to transfer everything, meaning what's in the Media Gallery?
The only way I know how to transfer to another platform like Roots Magic is
a gedcom and from what I understand, media does not get included.

Re: [LegacyUG] Legacy 10?

Yes, that is the platform I'll be using.  RM8 seems to be a
significant improvement over RM7.  Its global search and replace feature
will allow me to easily correct the spelling errors caused by the lack of
unicode support in Legacy.

Re: [LegacyUG] Legacy 10?

2022-01-24 Thread Mary Ann Latko Groetsema 
Just to close the loop on my question regarding unicode and Legacy, I
received this response from Legacy Customer Support...

*We have not been told the full features of Legacy 10 and you are correct;
nothing is set in stone.  That being said, I am pretty confident that full
Unicode support will not be in Legacy 10.  Full Unicode support would
require a complete rewrite of Legacy using a different coding base.  I have
not been told of any plans for a full rewrite in Legacy 10.*

So it looks like I need to migrate my tree to another platform...
