Debbie, Thanks for the reply. You are correct that you can have a Clooz database without Legacy. The only problem is when you create a Clooz database linked to Legacy it cannot be used without that Specific Legacy file. If you then convert that file to Legacy 7 your Clooz file containing all of your research may become useless. I have a rather large Clooz 2.1 file that is very helpful.

Hello, Clooz can and does work with or without Legacy. I use both programs. Elizabeth Kelley Kerstens knows more than I of course. I will try to answer. Please read both programs Help section. Follow the directions and you should/will be able to create a new Clooz database within minutes. It will work without Legacy. My Clooz files are separate. I will pass on a hint though. When you create the Clooz databases name them different enough to tell the difference. You could put a C in front of the Clooz files and an L in front of the Legacy files. Example - CSmith or LSmith. Elizabeth is and has been great about helping us users use her program. I totally understand her view point as well.

It is from the Elizabeth Kerstens the author of Clooz. I use Clooz and my Clooz database will not work without Legacy. This it is very disturbing. Especially the part that 7 may not work with Clooz and the Legacy folks are not helping with the transition. My only option is to NOT upgrade. Help! Anyone got a suggestion. G.C. Oliver Athens, Ga. USA "Elizabeth Kelley Kerstens, CG, CGL" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: Re: [CLOOZ] Clooz and Legacy Clooz 2 and Legacy 6 work together currently. The folks at Legacy come out with updates more frequently than I am capable of doing, so Clooz 2 may or may not work with Legacy 7. I am not happy with the integration and the expectations that it causes, especially because I haven't been able to get implementations made on the Legacy side that assist with the integration. So I am not going to pursue that course any more, or pursue integrating with other genealogy programs other than to import GEDCOMs. It's a programming nightmare to keep up with all the programs out there in their various stages and I can't afford to try, nor can I expect to keep up as a one-person company with a contract programmer. I'm sorry, but it's a bigger fish than I'm capable of frying. I am working on an update to Clooz 2.1 that will fix a few issues and add some functionality, but it won't be out probably until the end of this year or early next year.
