Hi,
I made a start error when entering dates in a lot of my family records, so
there's a number of formats for the same date.
After doing what I should have done in the 1st place (RTBM!) I made
selections in the OptionsCustomiseDates screen, and am following the

Hi Barry - I haven't tried this but you could investigate exporting then
importing - worst case using a gedcom, but preferably to another Legacy file
(so that all the non-standard data is kept). I suspect that with any export the
date is only sent in one format, and the date display can then be

Barrie,
If you have dates entered in a form that Legacy does not recognize as a
date there is a search that will list all the bad dates.
Go to Search Find Miscellaneous searches tab.
There is a selection there that will search all bad dates.

Can someone tell me how to change the CHR for Christening to Baptism?
Somehow all of my Baptisms have changed to Christening when I moved my
file to my laptop. I am on vacation and I cannot find the info in the
help files.

Do RINs get re-used when you delete an individual? I just deleted 2 unlinked

That is a great tool and I am very pleased to find something else to help me
keep my data consistent.
I would like to know where and how others record information without dates
where only an age is known. Such as; died in infancy or died at age 18.
Thanks,

Surely others may have the same problem... Some of my ancestors
were of a church that only Christened shortly after the birth of
a child. Baptism didn't take place until perhaps years later. I

For me, I just deduct the age from the year of death and use about eg. 1888
less 18 gives Abt1870. With respect to died in infancy, personally I would
leave the date blank, change the 'living' to 'dead', enter the place of
death (if I know it) in the location field, and add a note in

I always put this early Christening in the approp. fields in the

that way the Christening date and place can be used as an approx. birth

Is that report open in Preview or did you create a PDF file and have it
open in Adobe Reader?
If you have it open in Preview you should NOT be able to switch back to

For the avoidance of future problems it is best to treat only dates as

If it was an Anabaptist church (one of several denominations which

Dear All,
I would like to put some family tree details on Facebook, limiting it to a

Unless they fixed it, I don't think you can. I've been trying to do it for
several months and the Facebook internal program just isn't there anymore.
You used to be able to upload a GEDCOM only. Now you have to enter
everything in all over again. Not worth it to me.
I wish they would fix this.
I have created an Event: Adult Baptism, which includes anyone who 'chose' to be
baptised. Half of my family was infant baptised, most of the others adult; some
who had both done.
