Hi Jackie,
Welcome to the list. Yes, I switched from TMG 7 to Legacy 7.0 Deluxe, and I
would definitely "NOT" switch back to TMG for a variety of reasons. I had
been using TMG for about 15 years. Although it is a daunting task to clean
up all the records, the finished product is well worth the ef

Because they're not just street maps. You can see the countryside and

Of course old maps are invaluable but modern are not irrelevant.

Legacy 7 requires much the same although for mapping you need IE7 and I

I agree. I do not want an event driven style of database but, like you, one
that is people/family driven. I would think also that it would be extremely

Hi, Penny -- You obviously have a lot more experience with it than I do.
I tried TMG (and a bunch of others, like PAF, Roots Magic and GenBox)
before I "committed" to Legacy. It was a no-brainer for me. Legacy
was user-friendly enough that I could start using it right away, without
any tips

Thanks for the link to the PDF. For years TMG could print that kind of
chart and many more.
Hi
I am one who has used practically every Genealogy software,all have some
features that are better than others, but overall Legacy is for me , the
best. I cannot fatom all the whingers who are not even Legacy users, yet

Speaking of which does the new version of Legacy include an entry for
witnesses and can it print family trees?

to all,
My whole family switched to TMG, by Wholly Genes!
TMG is orders of magnitudes better than Legacy!
TMG handles duplicates much better!
TMG handles and sorts on aliases!
TMG has a bigger learning curve.
In TMG, you can customize your working screen(s) - better than Legacy ever will
be.
