Sherry:- Thanks for your help. With your help and a little luck I was able to clear the Master File Error, and reduce the 11 pages of Media Errors to just 4 lines, which I then cleared. The problem
made me review Volume 1 and 2 of the Training video's I purchased. I found I did not know as much as I though. What does Legacy think about using a Transfer cable to move Legacy from one computer to another? I have been using that method for over a year. Once again Thanks.
