Re: [LegacyUG] Problem with V8.0.0.602 and V8.0.0.604

That just seems to introduce another set of issues! I've purchased v.9, but am holding off using it until the problems all get cleared up. I think LFT is maybe getting too complicated to design and use all the new features. IMHO, they should continue to support v.8 for those of us who would rather

Re: [LegacyUG] Web page creation

Joanne and Ian, That's what TNG is all about! Basically, you simply upload your gedcom and you're in business. Yes, you need to make a couple decisions then, but TNG has some great tutorials that will take you through it. And you can choose from about 15 templates to get the look you want. Should

[LegacyUG] Reports/Publishing Center

sources is already presented in the Ancestor Book Report, and many of the same ones are also printed in the Pedigree Chart. This seems redundant, and wastes space and paper. Is there not a way to prevent sources from being included in the Pedigree Report chapter? Thanks, Gene Wheeler

[LegacyUG] Some sources don't print in Ancestor Book

I'm trying to create an Ancestor Book and find that, after the fifth generation, the sources do not print. This occurs if I put the sources after each generation, and if I put them all at the end. Would appreciate some advice on this problem. Thanks! Gene Legacy User Group guidelines: h

[LegacyUG] Cannot export Lat/Long

I've been using v7.4, and just upgraded to v. 7.5. In neither of them can I export latitude/longitude, even though I have places geo-coded. I've tried various GEDCOM types, and NONE of them show LATI nor LONG as export options to be included in the GEDCOM. Can anyone explain why this is? Thanks

Re: [LegacyUG] Cannot export Lat/Long

I'm saying that LATI and LONG options do NOT appear in the list of "Items available for export" from which you choose items to "include" in the list "Export these items". This is true in 7.4 and 7.5, regardless of whether I choose to export a GEDCOM as a Legacy version, GEDCOM 5.5 only, or any of

Re: [LegacyUG] Cannot export Lat/Long

Sorry, but I have tried that several times! If they should up, they should show up as "4 LATI" and "4 LONG". Gene = At 03:56 PM 1/20/2011, you wrote: >Just search the GEDCOM for LATI and LONG (without the 4). I just tried >it with 7.5 and they are included. Legacy User Group guid
