such as a birth date but no location. Then I'll find just the location

I'm thinking of moving this kind of note to the Research Notes,

I'm thinking about all the detail and overhead that it will generate in the

Hey smithrmp...
I, too, am learning the best way to record information in the
database, and like you, started over when I bought Legacy,
re-entering all of the information I had from an earlier program.
Even now, however, I still am learning on the fly thus having to
update or correct information
Welcome to the crowd - I too have spent the better part of the past 1-2 years
correcting and changing records. Its been a long hard road, but I'm beginning
to see some organization to my files with backup and sources. The review has
been most enlightening as to correcting wrong paths, etc.
are using to record
information this way. Thank you.

information that turns out to be incorrect just so you know. So, that's
kind of similar. I don't

the lesson CDs. I think I'll go back and check.
