Very basic Legacy question

Sorry for such a newbie question, but I am just getting started tracing my family (my mother is Ann Harvey Harvey, so I hope it gets interesting, but not TOO interesting).

Anyway, I downloaded the basic Legacy, but I can't seem to find anywhere just a basic how-to: If I'm adding a person, how do I use all the different fields (sources, events, etc ...). Does something like that exist? Is there somewhere online that I can see examples of how people have filled out these forms?

Thanks for any help!

Alec

Thanks so much, Jen. This is exactly what I was looking for, and I just couldn't find it.

There is an awesome set of tutorials under the help as well. They are in three levels: Beginner, Intermediate, and Advanced. The other thing to know is that there is a context-sensitive help always available by pressing F1 in any screen.

You can always look to see if there is a Legacy User Group in your area also.

Then ... there's always here! And personally I welcome any newbies to this program. It's awesome!
