I was looking at the list of pictures in my C:\Legacy\Pictures folder and am
thinking about adding sub folders. I know about linking the pictures but am
wondering if adding extra folders is getting a little too pedantic am I
better off with a long alphabetical list?
I have all these pictures
Brian,
Just out of interest, why do you suggest a General ToDo? I too use ToDos for
this purpose but the Individual ToDo, my reasoning being that I am looking
for specific information relating to an individual.
I cannot see a problem with your suggestion - just wondered why that choice.

Erica,
Re: sub-folders, this is really personal choice, the limit is governed by
Windows not Legacy and is very, off hand I'm not sure what it is as I
usually create another folder when I find searching a folder, or selecting a
unique name a bit of a pain.
The recommendation re file names still
I use the general notes to write biographical narratives and I use the research
notes to document my theories, things I am working on, negative results, things
like that.

In the context of the original post there is no one special to create a
To Do for. He wanted to know how to record sources where nothing was
found about anyone in his file. I agree that if you were searching a
source for a particular person and found nothing a To Do for that person
would be the

It is largely a matter for personal preference whether you divide your
pictures into sub folders or not. I do keep files in a set of sub
folders, mainly because I inherited the system from a cousin. She had
her photo files organized under her 15 siblings names. I kept that
structure and added new
Brian,
Advanced set living works from the youngest to the oldest and identifies
those who are dead from that data. However, this does mean that some can be
missed where there are missing dates from the younger generations. LTools
has a routine which works from the oldest down thus catching at

Marli,
Wow! In the past, I have printed this sort of thing, as well as put it into a
.txt file (to be pasted later). Then I figure out what all information for whom
is included, then set up a source (using clipboard), paste all this into the
source Text, then enter data for individuals and apply

I had this problem when I first transferred my data file to Legacy and began
using it. I found a way without issuing a separate report. What I did was the
following:
1. click on the Index tab.
2. Click on the Customs button located near the upper, right-hand area of the
page.
3. Select
Sherry,
I know that the notes are correct. They printed correctly in previous
versions. I am not sure but I think that the added lines have just appeared in
7.5.0.112.
For example, here is one of the notes on an event as copied directly from the
screen:

I have a few questions about sourcing that I'm sure many of you can help
me with.
1. When you cite a newspaper article as a source, do you attempt to
always document where that article can be found, either online or in a
person's possession? And do you always provide the specific http URL
Hi Jerry,
I think the best you can do is to document where you found it. If it changes
and you know then you could change your information too. If you don't know then
I don't think there is much you can do. Even 'official' repositories change
location and name from time to time.

Your issues can be simplified considerably by remembering that it’s generally
not customary to cite repositories for published items that are widely
available, and records online are also considered “published.” With hard to
find items, however, I do include the repository in the
