I backup my Legacy files regularly and use that method and the Restore function to restore those backups and as a way to move my files from one computer to the other. I understand the Data backup but wonder about the Multimedia backup.....what exactly is being backed up in that multimedia backup because all my media is stored externally to my Windows hard drive and I "think" I am just linking to it from Legacy? Specifically, I'm a Mac user so my documents and images are on my Mac side while Legacy, of course, is on my WinXP side. When I link an event or person to an image on my Mac side, I thought I was just adding a link to the file and not the document itself.......but my multimedia backup keeps growing. So, when I backup and restore the Data file, what happens to that multimedia backup?

Hopefully I explained that clearly enough.  :)

Thanks,
Kathy
