Hi Marilyn After you absorb the useful ideas people have offered you might like to go to the Legacy web site and you will find a place that describes in detail this type of filing. I changed to it & (so far) it's good for me. Lecacy even has an on-line demonstration video which is comprehensive.

I am just starting this process, and I’d like to avoid re-doing something a year from now. (I’m jumping in here without the benefit of previous exchanges as I just signed up for this listserve.) Do I understand that you use the Legacy MRINs regardless of the person’s relationship to the person numbered before or behind them? (This is my big obstacle, how to set this up.) Many thanks, neophyte but a quick learner.

If you have say MRIN 1 through 10 in one binder and 11 to 19 in another binder....when 1-10 get too full, I split it up to a binder of 1-5 and another binder of 6-10....binder 11-19 stays the same. I have never found a reason to "switch" anything. It seems to work out OK. Hope this helps.
