[LegacyUG] Load Source Clipboard / Legacy 9

[Arnold Sprague]

This afternoon, I wanted to add a source from the "Load Citations 
from Disk" option. However, the "Load Source Clipboard" was blank. I 
was unable to "Select the Source Clipboard file you would like to 
load." Numbers one through ten appear on the left, but the names of 
the ten sources are gone.


What is the name of the file name that maintains these sources?
Is there a way to bring back files that are gone or empty?

Help and thank you.

Re: [LegacyUG] FW: Warning about MyHeritage / OFF LIST / Personal Emails

[Arnold Sprague]

John, Cathy, and CE,
I would like to voice my complaint that 
this message, with the Subject line, "Re: 
[LegacyUG] FW: Warning about MyHeritage / OFF 
LIST / Personal Emails" has been hijacked and 
changed into something far different.

Those of us interested in the original thread have been thwarted.
"...Having difficulty deleting 
MyHeritage from my computer" was not even close 
to the existing discussion. The responders should 
have, at least, changed the subject line to something relevant.

a pop-up message says “The action can’t be 
completed because the folder or a file in it is 
open in another program”. All my other 
programs were however closed. Could the problem 
be that Legacy keeps a connection to MyHeritage 
in order to conduct the background website 
searches on family trees? I cannot think of any 
other program that may be using MyHeritage. It 
was previously pinned to the taskbar but not 
now. Any help would be greatly appreciated. My 
computer uses Windows 7. I have deleted 
MyHeritage on the “All Programs” list but it 
cannot be deleted as noted above. John

Norton has it place and it kept vigilantly up to

I would suggest running a good anti-virus (Not Norton) in safe mode,

John,
Contact MyHeritage direct.
There are phone numbers and I think email is
supp...@myheritage.com

Others have had refunds on complaint. MyHeritage 
tends to renew subscription without advance 
warning.  Their support has improved though seems to have some way to go.


On the other hand, as Jennie says, it may not have been MyHeritage.

I had not used a MyHeritage subscription for a very long time

still on my computer. I was short of time and am not tech savvy so
I clicked on the software update to protect my computer from

I do not recall ever receiving software update notices from

I am disgusted with MyHeritage and fear that they will eventually
corrupt Millennia / Legacy. When I have time, I will try to delete
MyHeritage software from my computer.
Be warned!

Re: [LegacyUG] Customizing "My Toolbar"

[Arnold Sprague]

THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU.
I have been wanting to make this request for weeks.
In addition to what you are asking, I would like to be able 
to put up two "Set Relationships" icons; one for my wife and one for 
me. I include both our lines in one file for simplicity and often 
need to jump back and forth between her line and mine. I know that 
lots of Legacy folks strongly prefer separate family files, but how 
else could you find out that your spouse and you are cousins???

Thank you, Dave N.,
  Arnold

Hello folks,

Being immersed in DNA analysis I'm continually needing to Set
Relationships for different individuals.  To do this I access the
Tools tab which contains a Set Relationships icon.
I would prefer to add a Set Relationships icon to My Toolbar, but
that icon does not appear in my customization options as an available
toolbar button.

Is there a way to add Set Relationships to My Toolbar?

Thanks for any suggestions.

[LegacyUG] Uncheck the "Show all Events" box by default

[Arnold Sprague]

When I click on the Sources icon in Family View, the "Show all 
Events" box is checked by default. Since I use but few of the many 
Sources available in Legacy, I would like to be able to see only the 
Sources I use for each individual. Is there a way to have the "Show 
all Events" box *unchecked* by default?

I've looked, I think, at all the options in "Customize Legacy."
Thank you.

[LegacyUG] Two sources / Two sets of parents

[Arnold Sprague]

I have a Sarah Baldwin ( - 1669).
Source A shows her father is Sylvester Baldwin.
	I now find that Source B shows her parents are Richard Baldwin and 
Isabell Harding. This is probably the realistic parentage of her.
	How do I handle this? In her Notes? "Alt. Parents" would be nice, 
but I do not see a way to do that.

Thank you.

Re: [LegacyUG] How to source a ,docx document

[Arnold Sprague]

Anthony,
I think that Henry T. Peterson came closer to answering my 
question when he sent an example of what the Legacy master source 
would actually look like.
Perhaps you might address the part of my question of the 
document being updated annually and potential change of editor. Would 
I thus need a new master source for each year reflecting the *annual* 
update, for example? Or is what Henry suggested more than sufficient?

Thanks,
  Arnold

I need to source a .docx document. It is available from the Murphree
Genealogical Association's website
http://www.murphree.us/ .
The document can *not* be used on-line due to its size of 5.4 MB and
length of 3,818 pages.
On the website, the document is referred to as the Murphree
Genealogical Association Database, (July 2015 Edition). As to the
author, we are shown this: "This official MGA database is available

Bruce Jordan, and the Murphree Newsletter Editor, Linda Jordan."
Further, we are told, "Because of the massive size of the database,
it will be updated only annually, so additions will not be made immediately."
So, I know it is a word document, it is updated annually, and
the people putting it together may change.

I would like to have some help on how to source this document. It is
an invaluable resource for my wife's family.
Thank you.

Re: [LegacyUG] Creating a web site

[Arnold Sprague]

Gary,
#1. This is a public list and requesting a private reply 
deprives the rest of us who can learn from the responses you receive.

#2. I strongly suggest Simply Hosting
http://www.simplyhosting.net .
as a host. The price is right and the help provided is the best. I 
run two websites with them:

http://www.sprague-database.org
and
http://www.ac-family.org .
#3. If you decide to create a website, strongly consider 
buying The Next Generation of Genealogy Sitebuilding ("TNG")

http://www.lythgoes.net/genealogy/software.php
to provide a most useful graphical user interface for your visitors. 
Please note that Simply Hosting will install TNG, for free, for you. 
However, installing it yourself has its own pluses, if you are 
comfortable with big/detailed installations. For TNG user support, 
there is "a support forum, a wiki, a blog, and two mailing lists." 
TNG is large, so there is a pretty good learning curve.

Hope this helps,
  Arnold Sprague

Re: [LegacyUG] To-Do List

[Arnold Sprague]

This, too, has been my hard-learned experience when it seems 
that Legacy is locked up.
Brian is correct that an open Legacy screen is buried

Here are two tricks to make the window visible. It requires a 
keyboard and I do not have a Surface Pro3 so I cannot test this with 
any onscreen keyboard or add-on keyboard.


If you tap the Alt key that will frequently bring the current active 
window to the foreground and make it visible.


Another trick, in case the hidden window is not in the visible area 
of your display, is to use hold down Alt and tap the spacebar. That 
key combination brings up a windows menu for the active window. If 
the window is not visible the menu will appear off to the edge of 
the display closest to the window.
Choose move from the menu then you can  use the cursor keys to move 
the menu location towards the centre of the display (if the menu 
was  on the top edge use the down arrow for example). When you have 
the window positioned on screen hit enter to exit the move option.

Re: [LegacyUG] Master Source List

[Arnold Sprague]

Don,
I am an
unimaginative LUMPER. Here are some samples:
Book: Bio. - Elizabeth Sprague Coolidge - American Patron of Music
Book: Misc. - Notable American Women - The Modern Period
Cemetery: MN, Ramsey, St. Paul, Resurrection Cemetery
Census/U.S. Federal: 1910
Informant: Milstead, Claudia
Newspaper / U.S. / IL: Chicago Daily Tribune
Place / U.S.A. / MA: Billerica, Vital Records of, to the Year 1850
Surname / Phelps: Phelps Family of Amer & Eng Ancestors
Thus all
books, cemeteries, places, surnames, and on, appear grouped. Lets me do
the "quickly find" thing you mention below..

Curiosity question: How do other Legacy users quickly find a Master
Source for editing or selecting for a citation?
 
I have always prefixed my Source List Names with the File ID – ex. “2423
– 1920 US Census, Parks Bar Twp., Yuba Co., CA – Three Scott Families” –
which is also part of the attached media name – ex. 2423_IMG.jpg
(obviously I’m a splitter, not a lumper). That makes finding the source
easy, but a list of all source names, sorted alpha-numerically, looks
“helter-skelter.”  When sorted by the text after the File ID, the
source names are better organized and visually useful in finding typos
and inconsistencies in data entry.  But then it seems much harder to
find particular sources for editing or citation selection.
 
I’ve suggested to the Legacy folks that a “search by File ID” ability
would be very useful (and it would solve my problem).  But until
that happens I’m looking for ideas from other users.
 
One caveat – I can’t use source details for “primary” source information
and attached media (ie, no lumping) as my TNG website won’t “see” media
attached to source details in a GEDCOM, just the Detail Information and
Text/Comments.

[LegacyUG] Legacy Export / Source

[Arnold Sprague]

When I do a Legacy Export to make a GEDCOM file to put on my website,
the name of the source that appears on the website is what I had
entered in the "Source List Name (name to display in master source
list)." What I would like to appear, instead, is what I entered in
"Title." The rub is that what I entered in "Source List Name (name to
display in mater source list)" is for my own use and makes no sense
when it appears on my website.
Before I submit a suggestion on this matter, is there an overlooked
way for me to "customize" the source when I do an Export?
Thank you.

Re: [LegacyUG] Legacy how-to link for using voice recognition

[Arnold Sprague]

Cathy and Michele,
 Thank you for your replies.
 I was looking for the link Cathy gave below:
https://www.dropbox.com/s/508bulqmn2a8p6f/LFT-Dragon.mp4?dl=
I had come across it earlier but could not find it again. Bobby
Johnson provided a super demonstration.

 Windows 7 has free, built-in Speech Recognition. See link below:
http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/set-speech-recognition#1TC=windows-7
Note that Speech Recognition is available only in English, French,
Spanish, German, Japanese, Simplified Chinese, and Traditional Chinese.
 I will give this freebie a try and let you know if I like
it. My needs are simple: Entering a name or place, no ambient noises;
so this may well serve my needs.

Happy new year everybody!!!

I have recently become a fan of voice recognition software.
Especially after viewing the recent webinar on this subject.
At the time of the webinar I had had Dragon Naturally
Speaking installed on my computer for about 3 weeks. With a
little practice, I am now using it to enter data into Legacy
almost exclusively.

I've just completed making a short video (about 20 minutes)
demonstrating how I use Dragon with Legacy. If you are
interested in viewing this you may download it at the
following link:

Please don't expect this to be a Geoff Rasmussen quality
video, but perhaps you can get some ideas of how it can be
used.

Or the Webinar?

[LegacyUG] Set Tag Colors (Customize 9.2 / Other User-Interface Colors)

[Arnold Sprague]

It appears that a tremendous amount of time and effort went into
designing Color Palettes and Pre-defined color sets for Set Tag
Colors (Customize 9.2 / Other User-Interface Colors). However, the
new subtlety does not make the Tags really stand out as before. For
example, with L7.5, I set up Tag one with a bright blue background,
two with bright red, and three black. Without paying much attention,
I easily knew when I had birth, marriage, and death certificates for
an individual. Now, not so apparent.
Is it possible that a standard color set for tabs be the Legacy Classic set?
Thank you.

Re: [LegacyUG] Manual password

[Arnold Sprague]

Hi Wendy,
I would have to disagree with you on this matter.
Jane has a legitimate complaint that she is precluded from being able
to copy/paste her password to easily open a locked PDF file. Instead,
she is required to enter the password manually.
I have bumped up against this problem elsewhere and was told it was
the webmaster's decision. While I assume Legacy's webmaster did not
require this, someone did and I would be curious as to the rationale.
IMHO, it is not user friendly.
Take care,
Arnold

I am trying to learn about tagging so that I can do a report of a

[LegacyUG] Click / double click in Legacy 7.5 / In Legacy 8?

[Arnold Sprague]

A wonderful feature in Legacy 7.5 was, in Family view, to be able to:
1. Single click on a parent and be taken to the Individual's Information page
2. Double click on a parent and have that person now be in main box.
In Legacy 7.5, this was achieved via Options/Customize/To Move Names
in Family View.

I have looked and looked, but do not see where to do this in Legacy 8.
Help and thank you.

Re: [LegacyUG] Ahnentafel Report

[Arnold Sprague]

Howland Davis and Gene A,
I agree with Howland that Legacy does *NOT* provide an Ahnentafel
Report. At best, Legacy provides a semi-stripped down ancestor report
which passes for an Ahnentafel Report.
IMHO, an Ahnentafel Report simply provides the following:

#1. My name
#2. My father's name
#3. My mother's name
#4. My father's father's name
#5. My father's mother's name
#6. My mother's father's name
#7. and on

Legacy adds much more, such as information pertaining to the parents
of each person above, generation numbers, spouses, and on.
Howland wishes to create a short Ahnentafel report in order to find
my first unknown ancestor . I would like to do that for my family
also, but the Legacy report is *NOT* short, not concise, etc., as the
generally accepted Ahnentafel Report is.

Re: [LegacyUG] Passage Express and Windows 7

In XP, I am every now and then informed that Firefox is running when

it, and click on End Process. Then I can reopen Firefox.

Re: [LegacyUG] Window sizes

Sherry,
 In your final paragraph below, you suggested deleting
Legacy2.usr. I did that and nothing has improved.
 I run three monitors on Windows XP, SP3. I place Legacy on
the RIGHT-hand monitor.
   1. If Legacy is maximized when I close it down and then
reopen it, Legacy opens in the MIDDLE monitor full sized.
   2. If, however, Legacy is Restored down (not minimized)
when I close it down and then reopen it, Legacy opens in the
RIGHT-hand monitor, but not maximized.
 This is repeatable and has occurred for years.

 My question is how can I run Legacy maximized (in
full-screen mode) on my RIGHT-hand monitor and have it open there
again, full sized, after I close Legacy?
 Thank you,
   Arnold

Re: [LegacyUG] Latitude and longitute not being exported in GEDCOM

[Arnold Sprague]

Sherry,
Perhaps I am missing obvious, but I do not see a
way to change the default from Legacy to to be
permanently GEDCOM 5.5.1 Only.
Help and thank you,
Arnold

When you create a gedcom, on the main Gedcom Export window, you have
an option to Produce Program For.  The default is Legacy.  Other
options include Ged 5.5, Basic, Generic, etc.

The Legacy option is not to create a gedcom but
to export to a new Family File.


Sincerely,
Sherry

  Jerry,
 
  where do you see Legacy gedcom? Â When I click on the Export, I see on my
  computer only the following three options:
  -- Gedcom
  -- Legacy
  -- Clooz
 
  Of the above three, the Legacy option does not show any gedcom but a file
  extension of .fdb.
  I'm using Legacy v.7.5.0.166
 
  so, please provide some clarification.
 
  thanks,
  Cathy

Re: [LegacyUG] Converting Source Citations

[Arnold Sprague]

Rich is correct when he writes below, For
accuracy sake, when Source Writer was added, the conversion tool was there.

I only add this message to this long thread as it
was pointed out by several people that I was in
error in my message of Sat, May 1, 2010 at 8:46
PM stating Legacy users once had access to a
built-in Legacy conversion tool. The tool was
there and then it was quietly gone with an
upgrade. The conversion tool worked just fine for
me. I was saddened by its sudden demise.

I apologize in advance if this post is in html.
My mail program let me stipulate that it is
plain, not styled. If I messed up, please
write to me OFF-LIST at aspra...@gsb.uchicago.edu. Thank you.

For accuracy sake, when Source Writer was added,
the comversion tool was there. Not on the disc,
but the update a few days later. I used it ONCE.
It went weird, (details forgotten) and I put it
off for the weekend to explore. Since at the
time, the nasty bugs were bothersome, I then
downloaded the next day? and the converter was
gone. At the time, I guessed it would be back in
a few weeks, and am still waiting. Some people
at the time may never have done an update while
the converter was available, maybe 2-3 days tops.
Therein lies the confusion.

  Well, it looks like I struck a
  nerve!
 
  Given the fact that we have been in the age of identity
  theft and cyber-stalking, I choose not to post my actual
  name. This is one of the ways I try to protect myself and my
  family. I do not have a page on any social network site and
  I can still Google my name online and do not get any results
  that match to me!  As far as the rules of netiquette go,
  one of the core rules of netiquette is to respect other
  people's privacy. www.albion.com/netiquette/corerules.htmlÂ
  We can talk about Genealogy and Legacy without you knowing
  who I am.
 
  Second, regarding the idea that someone can search and lurk
  for answers before simply asking the question. I went to the
  Achives and typed in conversion tool in the Search field.
  I got 33 results that were in response to someone's question
  about its whereabouts when they could not find it. Some
  answers did not apply to the conversion tool. Below are some
  answers that were posted.

  Maybe I am just old fashioned; but why can't someone just
  ask a simple question and get a simple answer without being
  chided for not perusing over an innumerable amount of
  archived messages that will not guarantee that he will find

[LegacyUG] Number of Notes in Legacy

[Arnold Sprague]

Under Legacy Home/Statistics, Legacy shows how many Individuals,
Families, and Sources I have. However, I would also like to know how
many Notes I have.

Is there a way for me to ascertain the number of Notes in Legacy?

Thank you.

Re: [LegacyUG] GEO Updates Coming?

[Arnold Sprague]

Mr Fry writes below, I suspect that they might even be slightly
embarrassed by ever making such a facility available and now have no
real means or inclination to upgrade or make more general purpose.

I, for one, am more than satisfied with what Legacy gave us. It works
most of the time. When I write most of the time, I mean 80%-90% of the time.
I see no cause to insult Legacy. And I run a website which has
31,000+ places (24,000+ in the USA) on it.

Despite various complaints about the incompleteness and inaccuracies
that abound within the various areas, at no time have Millennia ever
made any statement concerning any upgrades.

I suspect that they might even be slightly embarrassed by ever making
such a facility available and now have no real means or inclination to
upgrade or make more general purpose. Besides, the Geo Database should
really be superseded by on-line mapping web sites.
