Brian, Could you explain this in more specific, sort of kindergarten terms?
I've put my questions in caps to show what I don't understand--it doesn't
mean that I'm shouting!
Perhaps what I really need is a specific example of what's on the old
computer and above all what you need to click on to do what you're
suggesting -- is that too complicated??
If this is asking too much, maybe you could just point me to some online
directions.
Thanks in advance for any further assistance!
Pat

This will create a .zip file containing all your multimedia files.
On the New computer use Windows XP zip file utilities
(<e.g.?, HOW DO YOU FIND THESE UTILITIES?) to
extract/restore > those multimedia files to the root folder (WHAT IS THE
ROOT FOLDER?) of your drive (C:\) so the folder paths (WHAT FOLDER PATHS?)
are created (AUTOMATICALLY? MANUALLY, IN OTHER WORDS WHO IS DOING THE
CREATING?)to keep the multimedia in the same folders (IN THE SAME FOLDERS AS
WHAT?)
where they were in on the old computer.

Hi
I'm new here. So apologies if this question has been asked everday for
last
six months.
I like to put a copy of my family file on my laptop when I go off
researching in the field.
I seem to be able to transfer the words and dates etc using the Legacy
File
export wizard but can't get the pictures to show up on the laptop.
Now I have bought a brand new desktop and need to migrate everything
over.
Again I followed the export wizard and the data is fine but how do I
shift
over the visuals?
