Hello, I am about to purchase the Legacy Deluxe. I'm currently using Family Tree Maker 2005. I have the step-by-step instructions printed out, to transfer my FTM file to a GEDCOM and then import. But, I'm wondering if there might be some "hints" that I would want to do within the FTM, BEFORE I export the file, to prevent a lot of hours of "cleaning up" after the import into Legacy. For example, I have watched the training video on Legacy, and I see there is an emphasis placed on the format of the location, using commas for placeholders (city, county, state, USA--for example). In my year's worth of entering a massive amount of data in FTM, I was never careful with that--if a source gave the city, county, state, and said USA, that's what I used. If not, I didn't. Is it going to be screwed up when I import? Other things come to mind, in terms of how they will be imported....such as my Notes and Scrapbook entries in FTM. Any help? Barbara Ford
