*BACKGROUND*


The path that I used when I created new source media is:



C:\Genealogy Master Images\aaNEW FILING METHOD 2015\surname\first
name\Source Copies\document file name



An example is:



C:\Genealogy Master Images\aaNEW FILING METHOD 2015\DAVIS\Ida Ellen\Source
Copies\birth certificate



When I saved a document or photo to a source, I chose the option to leave
the file where it was and link to it there, i.e. I didn't use the default
media folder location.



*PROBLEM*



The "aaNEW FILING METHOD 2015" part of the path needs to be deleted for all
of my source media in Legacy as paths are becoming too long for Legacy to
handle.  Reference to the 2015 filing method is also no longer relevant.



The problem is not within Internet Explorer as I can easily move the
surname folders directly under the Genealogy Master Images folder, then
delete the intervening aaNEW FILING METHOD 2015 sub-folder.



*QUESTIONS*



1.  Will Legacy be able to find my source media if I remove the aaNEW
FILING METHOD 2015 sub-folder from the path?

 2.  Is there a way to make a global change rather than having to change
the path for each individual document or photo?


Many thanks,

Priscilla Glasow
