Greetings Fellow Carbon-Based Units!

Trying to use LTools to update my media links with the new document file names. Not working (0 records updates) and I've found LTools is using the default Legacy media path (C:\Users\Name\[etc]), not the media path in the family file.

(1) I can't figure out how to change this setting in LTools. I've looked at preferences and the config file, but that path isn't there. How do I change it in LTools?

(2) I'm not afraid of databases. Is there a (free) way to get into the Access database? Legacy is still using that, yes? LTools will run raw SQL, but I want to see what's happening first and SELECT is not allowed.

(3) I'm guessing I could export to GEDCOM, change the paths with search and replace and re-import the GEDCOM, but THAT I'm afraid will cause more problems that I don't want to deal with -- like messing up or losing events or sources.

Any thoughts? Like everyone else, I have thousands of links to media files that I don't want to fix one at a time.

Thanks!

Kris
