Thank you so much for this information, Wendy. I will be following this up as soon as our desktop computer comes back from the repair shop. I think your advice will be the answer.

Yes you can do that, but... "...so that the two computers can be used at the same time for Legacy data entry, but the Legacy data being entered into both goes into one “master†Legacy programme?" No, you can't do that. Your Legacy database can be open on only one computer at a time. You can put the Legacy file into a folder that is shared with another computer via cloud storage (such as Dropbox), so that when you open the file on either computer (assuming it's closed on the other computer) you are opening the current and up-to-date file. You might also like to look into "intellishare" in the Help files - if you're wanting to collaborate with another person, that might fit your needs. Hope this helps. :-) Wendy Legacy User Group guidelines: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/Etiquette.asp Archived messages after Nov. 21 2009: http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/ Archived messages from old mail server - before Nov. 21 2009: http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/ Online technical support: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/Help.asp Follow Legacy on Facebook (http://www.facebook.com/LegacyFamilyTree) and on our blog (http://news.LegacyFamilyTree.com).
