Neither have I, and I definitely advise against using abbreviations in locations, especially if you wish to publish, as very few will know what they mean, especially for states, counties, provinces. Ron Ferguson http://www.fergys.co.uk/ GOONS #5307 Confused wasbornconfu...@gmail.com wrote:

Brian, I don't think it can be done from your Legacy program - not sure about LTools though. It will be possible using Access. BTW I would have picked this up earlier, but I have been away for a few days. I gave up looking at stuff on my tablet because this list was filled with requests for

Brian, Don't you mean death date after 1839? The problem is that this will give you those who were not born before 1839. If you tag those who have an Event place for Munzesheim then this will include those who lived there in any year, so even if you then search this list for those born before
