One thing I learned the hard way (again, from importing my mother's
database):
I suggest you do NOT merge a GEDCOM directly into your own main family file.
Instead, create a NEW Legacy file with the GEDCOM. Then go through the
various different entries to do cleanup and standardization as you desire.
Once you are happy with the new Legacy file, only THEN merge it into your
own file.

Ed,
I don't know anything specifically about the New.Familysearch DB, but
you you export from it to a GEDCOM file? If so, you could them import
that into Legacy. Don't forget to backup before importing or merging
this GEDCOM into your family file.
Also, I seem to remember Sherry or someone from Millennia (the makers
of Legacy) saying here recently that Legacy7 will eventually be able
to link directly to the Familysearch Database when it's fully
available to all, or am I mixing this up with something else?
Regards,
Dermot.
