Probably not enough "bang for the buck". Not exactly an enhancement that you can trumpet to bring in new customers. >It is not possible to source individual fields. If you created an Event/Fact for every piece of datum (Event Type for FirstName, MiddleName, LastName, Title, Suffix, BirthDate, BirthPlace, etc.) you can enter it in Legacy. The problem is that reports/webpages/??? can't piece things back together. You would have to create your own reports/webpages from the Access database to be able to present your data to the world.
