Thanks much. One other question though. Before converting to Legacy I was using 
Family Tree Maker which when a new version of the software was purchased gave 
me problems I could not overcome. Somehow when converting to Legacy I brought 
along most of my media files. Many were not associated with the correct event 
in Legacy but we're with the correct person. As mentioned some, not all that 
many, did not convert. I thought I was using a Gedcom file for that conversion.
