Don,
What you say is correct and I miswrote what I was trying to say. I think that to show up the duplicates one would need to show the names of people with the picture names associated with each person - it is that which cannot be done from within Legacy.

Click on the preview button and you will get a preview of the report and then you can print the list.

What I need is to print out a list of ALL the actual images with who they are attached to. For example this list you sent me to shows I have files in: 1.C:\Legacy\photos 2.C:\Legacy\documents That is correct, but on some folks they have somehow gotten a reference entered twice to the same file in one of the two folders so that the same photo shows up twice when you look at that individual's photos. I need to know if the software will search for duplicates or somehow allow me to print out a list of everyone with all the referenced files for images listed so I can more readily identify duplicates. ANYTHING would be better than just trying to search through every one of some 24,000 names! I'm so irritated this other software did this! It has wreaked havoc on our database! :( Thx!
