After the initial installation of Legacy, I moved the data files to a removable drive I can take with me wherever I go. I made this a sharable drive. This is, I can see anywhere on my home network.
On the other two computers, I went to Options>Customize and clicked on the Locations tab. The first entry indicates where the main family file is stored. I used the "change" button to select the proper location. Since I keep my documents and picture files on the same drive, I also modified those addresses. I use Cobian, a free backup software, to perfrom backups of these files to my Dropbox account.
