JL, No, I have not been using the backup feature from Legacy since I've started using Mozy. I used to put the backups each night onto a flash drive with the date in the title. I probably should go back to doing that as well as Mozy just to have extra protection.
Art, Thanks for your suggestions as well.

Why do you have to go to Mozy for this? Do you not use the backup feature in Legacy? It makes dated backups, named by date. Are those on your computer somewhere or do you make them and then immediately delete them? If you can find one dated the day before yesterday that should do it. Restore it to Legacy, take the missing info you want out of it, and then restore your newer one. ----- JL JLog - simple computer technology for genealogists http://www.jgen.ws/jlog Jennifer Trahan wrote: > I have a very strange problem.
