'Getting to grips with Access" is an excellent comment Jenny. I would not recommend manipulating the Legacy Family File in Access unless you're quite experienced with Access.
There are a lot of tables in the Family File which interact with each other and changing something in one table and not another can blow things apart. One of our Legacy users created a program called LTools, which actually does quite a bit - and he strongly warnts backing up the Family File before using any of his tools. You might want to look into that. We cannot fix a database that has been messed up by manipulating it in Access!
