Re: [LegacyUG] Legacy Users Classes

Listers, One of the functions of my Gen Soc was to have Legacy user classes [ way back when Legacy began]. After those ceased, I did Legacy tutorials when it was my turn to 'sit the Genealogical Library'. So, check with your local Gen Soc and see if someone is willing to set up classes for

[LegacyUG] 'Bits and Pieces'

Hi Leonard, Nice... Here is what I mean, I had no words to describe what all the 'core' files for Legacy were, so I made up my own description. Here are the files in the drop box. Crosley-2May2017.FG Crosley-2May2017.H1 Crosley-2May2017.H2 Crosley-2May2017.ldb Crosley-2May2017.TC

Confused, I don’t have a “bits and pieces” file. I have Data, eBooks, and Media folders. Should I add one and then something else to backup my #? Leonard ­ _ Leonard J. McCown, Irving, Texas

Re: [LegacyUG] Hashtag file

Hi Linda, I just looked at the 'bits and pieces' of my legacy file that live in my dropbox - There is a file with the extension 'hdb' In one of my backup files it is smaller than a newer one in which I have increased the # of hashtags I am using. This might be the file you are missing.

Yes, Denise. I'm using the basic source tool. What FamilySearch does is exactly what I would like to see the other database services and sources of information use. Maybe some of them will someday? Thanks for your comments, though! Gene === On Wed, May 10, 2017 at 11:57 AM,

Thank you Brian, but what I wrote is accurate. In the Basic Source, the Source Detail text box of the Detail Information tab, there is a limit. Many of the source - citations written for FamilySearch documents cannot be recorded unless shortened, such as : "United States World War I Draft

Denise, The source text in all sources Basic and SourceWriter are allowed to contain 1,000,000 characters. You may be confusing the "Source text" with the Source detail field which is limited to 255 Characters or the Publication Facts field which is limited to 248 characters. Long citations

Re: [LegacyUG] Citations from Hints in v.9?

Ian, Your issue of the sibling list containing both siblings and children (which is a problem only for females by the way) is a known issue with Legacy 9.0. According to the problem tracking system this will be fixed in the next update. Brian Kelly On 10-May-17 10:47 AM, Ian Thomas wrote:

Using the new version, in the family view, I've found, at least in my case, what may be an issue. Wondering if anyone else had had this? For example, using a wife for whom I never had parents before, when I right click on the "add father" or "add mother" - the window that opens is the
