[LegacyUG] missing tags
Last week I got a new computer and successfully loaded Legacy and my family file on to it. However, can anyone explain why this is now called 'Hatchell%20Master(1)' and not HatchellMaster as before? I have tried saving it as HatchellMaster but it reloads the first named file. I also loaded the new version of Legacy from the Legacy Home page but now my Tags are not shown anywhere. Also the ancestor colours no longer seem to be changeable. Can anyone explain whether this is due to the new version of Legacy (mine is now 7.5.0.149 Deluxe Edition) or something that has happened with the changeover to a new computer. I used the Windows 7 Easy Transfer to move files across.

Re: [LegacyUG] missing tags
Elizabeth, Whilst I am unable to know how your file name apparently changed, or did it? '%20' is the code for a space so do you actually have 2 files in your folder one being Hatchell Master and the other HatchellMaster, and as Mike suggests, are you now seeing the wrong one?

Re: [LegacyUG] missing tags
Yes, it should be a space - I think that's one problem solved and I've changed the name, removing the space and saved it over the new name so now, hopefully, it is one again. I just hope that any changes done since last week are in the database. Doesn't explain why tags aren't being shown. I've tried again to 'show' tags but they just aren't there. I have ascertained that the correct ones in use are highlighted to be shown. I cleared all tags and re-tagged the descendants of one person using no.1 but it just doesn't appear on the family view page. Any ideas, please?

Sounds like you didn't move any of the files that contain your settings over to the new computer. I used the Windows 7 Easy Transfer to move files across. I guess it wasn't so easy. -- Dennis Kowallek (LTools/Custom Programming) http://zippersoftware.com/ltools/index.htm http://groups.yahoo.com/group/ltools NOTE TO LUG USERS: Use plain text if you want me to read your post.

Re: [LegacyUG] missing tags
Elizabeth, I, too, recently purchased a new computer and downloaded a new Legacy and restored my database from my backup (external HD), and I discovered that Tagging is turned off by default. Go into Customize and it's on one of the first two or three tabs. --Paula in Texas Researching: Adair Baker Beasley Benson Betz Bigley Blagrave Burton Chapman Clement Clough Coppernoll Costine Daulton Dinwiddie Doody Ellis Exline Field Floran Floyd Gates Goodale Gordon Gump Hale Harbaugh Hind Hopkins Hughes Hurdle Jones Klein Koyle Laswell McDonald Misner Passwaters Pelton Roberts Roche Ryburn Sanford Short Singer Sullivan Weller Williams From: Elizabeth roobee...@gmail.com To: LegacyUserGroup@LegacyUsers.com Sent: Wed, February 22, 2012 8:30:05 AM Subject: Re: [LegacyUG] missing tags snip Doesn't explain why tags aren't being shown. snip 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] missing tags
I have had no problems doing it the same way as Elizabeth did. Admittedly, I am having to reset some things, but I didn't have that many things set and it is really good for me to review all the things that are available to set. On the other hand, I have my old computer on the card table next to me, so I could copy over a user file if I really need to do that. I believe that when I restored from the backup, the program recognized the database needed modifying to run in .149 and took care of it for me. BTW, I did a cursory check of some of my highly-cited sources / fields, and they seem to be okay. Will be reading the rest of the problems posts now... --Paula in Texas Researching: Adair Baker Beasley Benson Betz Bigley Blagrave Burton Chapman Clement Clough Coppernoll Costine Daulton Dinwiddie Doody Ellis Exline Field Floran Floyd Gates Goodale Gordon Gump Hale Harbaugh Hind Hopkins Hughes Hurdle Jones Klein Koyle Laswell McDonald Misner Passwaters Pelton Roberts Roche Ryburn Sanford Short Singer Sullivan Weller Williams From: Dennis M.
