    1. Re: [SOG-UK] Upgrade from FTM2006?

    3. I transferred my data from Reunion/Generations to Legacy about six years ago and have not regretted the decision. I don't feel qualified to give you a detailed review but for what it is worth: - I would describe my IT skills as basic and have found it very easy to use - the transfer of data from Reunion went well apart from one aspect: I had details of people's addresses in a general category on Reunion which inexplicably went into "Medical" on Legacy. - In the notes section for each individual it has three categories: General, Research and Medical. These are imbedded and you cannot change Medical. I find this of limited use and would prefer if it could be user defined. - It has a lot of features which I have not got to grips with - for example, the referencing can be very detailed if you want it to be Preferred Reunion for its tree drawing capacity but the accompanying Legacy Chart software is reasonably good for printing out a variety of charts. I originally decided to go with Legacy following a seminar at SOG run by Alec Triton and in a webinar last year he explained some of its key features. Not sure whether he sees this list but in case not and you want to contact him direct, I am sure he would not mind my giving his email address: [email protected] Lin Howard -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of [email protected] Sent: 16 April 2012 13:56 To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [SOG-UK] Upgrade from FTM2006? I am just loading Legacy de luxe having found out that the old Cumberland family Tree is no longer backed and the old programs will not load onto Windows 7. Has any one else experience of this program (Legacy) because, as usual, the book that goes with it contains too much jargon that mere mortals quake to understand it!
