Quite possibly if you know it’s there and what it’s called. For me a quick zip in the database and check. I have been using/designing/supporting multi-user access for more years than I care to remember. Useful for others though. Field sizes would be a better title than capacities. Just an observation. That error message needs looking at though.

It's also on the website under Legacy > Features Sincerely, Sherry Technical Support Legacy Family Tree On Tue, Jun 23, 2015 at 7:32 AM, Adrian Purkiss <a...@wavp.co.uk> wrote: Marion Have had a look in the internal structure of the legacy (access based) database structure using ms access and the allowed file lengths are as follows. Path name maximum 255 characters plus File name another 255 characters It should be flagged up to support that Legacy gives the most unhelpful error message if these lengths are exceeded.
