Re: [LegacyUG] Locality in the ToDo reports
Get a printer like the Epson 1400 so you can print on 13 X 19 paper or 11 X 17 (available at your local print shop cheap). Useable charts can then be produced. Landscape is a great way to show more information on a single sheet, especially if it is using larger paper sizes. I use a friend's plotter that will take up to 42 paper on rolls for display at family reunions and the charts are always a hit. Also you can get refillable cartridges on Ebay for the Epson as well as pigment ink in bulk saving you hundreds of dollars over a single year, effectively paying for your printer in a year or two. - Original Message - From: SHIRLEY ANDERSON To: LegacyUserGroup@LegacyUsers.com Sent: Saturday, August 18, 2012 11:58 AM Subject: Re: [LegacyUG] Locality in the ToDo reports I use portrait mode.

Re: [LegacyUG] Locality in the ToDo reports
I solved the problem of only part of the Locality being printed. For some reason, I had very wide margins on the right and left. When I made them smaller, I got the full location.

Re: [LegacyUG] Locality in the ToDo reports
Another way I use these reports is print to pdf and then upload to my itouch (or whatever you might use - phone, tablet, etc.) Very helpful because I can pull up my to-dos and make notes, takes photos/scans. The written version works well too but depending on where you are and what you are doing, sometimes having it all on one of these devices helps when you get stumped in the area you planned to research or there are those additional research moments. Between uploading my Legacy database and my pdfs to-dos to the itouch, I really do have a lot at my fingertips.

I enter the locality in the ToDo as I would in other places in Legacy, and it uses the Location Master List. However, when I print a ToDo list, sorting by locality, the Locality is sorted by City instead of Country. 2. If I create a unique locality with the Country first,then County, then City, I can get the report to sort by country but cannot see the county or city as the field is too short on the report. How do I get the full Locality to print out on the ToDo report? Am I using the Locality field in the ToDo incorrectly?
