Yes I did that thanks. I also read somewhere to give the second file 3000 rins so you know which is old and which is new.

Just giving a file a name like filename.csv does not change the content. if you downloaded a file from Ancestry it is probably a GEDCOM file which is the standard format for genealogical files. Rename the file to filename.ged Open Legacy and use file > Import > GEDCOM file when you have finished the import from filename.ged Go to View > Name List Click Options > Print Now you will be able to define up to three rows of data you can include for each person. Select CSV file in the lower right The print box in the upper right will change to Create Click create In the dialog box select the folder where you want to save the file and assign a file name Click save Remember where you saved that file Open Excel then open the file you exported from legacy.
