I think this happens when one tries to have two Legacy programs running at
the same time. I have come across this or something similar myself. What
seemed to happen was that Legacy would simply disappear from the screen
without any indication as to why. Naturally I assumed that it had just
crashed and hence restarted, generally it would not load. Like yourself I
then use ctl alt delete only to find that Legacy was still running but off
screen. Closing Legacy and then reopening solved the problem with no loss of
data.
I cannot explain what is going on nor why but the remedy does not seem to
cause any problems.

Subject: [LegacyUG] Legacy Crashes
Date: Sat, 2 Dec 2006 15:37:32 -0700
Recently, I think beginning with upgrading to version 6.0.0.110 my main
data
file crashes and become non responding. The first visable observation is
that the program stops functioning and the top tool bar of the Legacy
Family
view goes blank and turns white.After a few moments, the top left of the
screen displays Legacy - [Leggitt] Not Responding. If at that moment I
bring
up the Windows Task Manager it shows two instances of Legacy, both Non
Responding. After exiting the Task Manager I click on the upper right
corner
X and the End Program - Leggacy, This program is not responding dialog box
appears.
If I click on End Now, after a few moments the normal Legacy program
reappears. Sometimes it is responsive and sometimes not.
I had a little over 14,000 individuals in the Leggitt database. I exported
and removed about two thousand individuals into two separate data files.
Both of those new database files appear to function properly. However, the
remaining Leggitt database still malfunctions as before.
Any help would certainly be appreciated.
