Marriage deleted but still shows up on reports and tree
Jim Byram replied to gdlemail's topic in The Master Genealogist v9
Avarinah Lloyd (88) and Evan Parry (408) are shown as the parents of Marianna Parry (1458). That makes a family. One of the parents of Marianna Parry (1458) is incorrect? -

Check the Person view of all three people involved. -
Save the registration emails as text files and print them. Store the files and printouts in various locations so that you can always recover your registration information no matter what unforeseen disaster might occur.
-
The TMG operation shut down almost seven years ago and the inability to recover your registration information has always been a possibility. If the email address failure is not temporary and you can't recover your registration information, it's time to move your data to another genealogy database program.

Did you try the installer repair option to fix the missing DLL? Sorry. Send your email to support@whollygenes.com to request your registration information. The ID (above) is not your TMG registration number.
-
Run the TMG installer and select [Repair] and see if that fixes the issue. When you move to a new computer with a new operating system, you should do a clean install of all applications. If you can't locate your email with the TMG registration information, you should write to whollygenes.com and request your registration information. If you get the current TMG installation running, you should open TMG, open the Help menu / About screen and make a screenshot of your registration information.

In regard to what Michael wrote, exhibits can also be linked to places and repositories.

Will Windows11 and TMG9 Work Together?
Jim Byram replied to beetle3247's topic in The Master Genealogist v9
The Automatic "Relation" tag works just fine for me under Windows 11. You need to go to Preferences and refresh the tag when you add new people but that's always been the case. -
Here's one example of a missing exhibit that can't be found. If you ever edit an exhibit in TMG with the image editor, a 'last version' backup file is created. If that backup file is ever deleted, then a permanent missing exhibit is the result. This is a good reason never to edit image exhibits in TMG. The record can be located and removed from the exhibit table if necessary.

Since I don't have the current version, I can't really comment. Shared events have been added (not in Basics version). I don't know how events are sorted. AQ is a perfectly competent program with the unique collaboration feature. Try the free Basics version that acts as a trial. There is a page comparing the Basics version with the paid version.
-
The only client genealogy database manager that I know of that has a collaboration module is Ancestral Quest. AQ has both Windows and macOS versions. https://www.ancquest.com/index.htm The collaboration module has the tools to maintain and manage the database for multiple collaborators on a server. I would think that HRE might allow such collaboration based on the original concepts assuming that it reaches a release stage.

You can probably use the .pjc file from the backup to replace the damaged one.

Will Windows11 and TMG9 Work Together?
Jim Byram replied to beetle3247's topic in The Master Genealogist v9
TMG v9,05 runs just fine under Win11 as do other 32-bit programs. -
Jim: LadyBonita here aka Bonita Hillmer.
I am having a problem trying to run a desc indented report. It tells me my G.RPT is missing or invalid. I have confirmed IT IS THERE ... so must be messed up. I do not have a problem putting in memos during input ... so must be something old. I tried running and Events report, selecting all memos ... same error.
I have run all alternatives of Maintenance including Validating files ... zero results. I have tried Repairing TMG (before I realized it was unique to my Main Project.
Terry suggested I contact you ... BTW, I have a cat, Sherlock, that looks similar to yours

Bonita,
You have a custom Indented Descendant Narrative report named "G"?
In any event, the first step in resolving any report issue is to reset the report configuration to default and test the report. If that works, then you can make any wanted changes to the report configuration.

Software to purchase to replace TMG?
Jim Byram replied to Tracy's topic in The Master Genealogist v9
Tracy, The genealogy software clients that you might want to check out are RootsMagic, Family Historian, Legacy and Heredis. RootsMagic 7 is the current version and RootsMagic 8 is in development and in in public preview. Family Historian 7 is current. Legacy 9 is current. Heredis 2021 is current. Former TMG users have moved to all of those programs. And of course, there are other programs. I moved to RootsMagic in late 2014 and moved from RootsMagic 7 to Family Historian 7 in February. FH7 added sort dates and that makes it work with GedSite much better. Jim
