Hey Val,
You mean even Notes get lost in the transfer?  I was thinking
Notes were always safe, and that if worse came to worse, I could 
move the few but important Events into Notes.  Guess that's not
an option.  Thanks for the heads up.  -- Alice

Hi Alice,

I was just sent off an e-mail to another lister about this  very subject.  
I'm still 
using Family Tree Maker 11 and hoping to move  over to Legacy but because 
I can't export well into Family Tree Maker (I got  over 3000 errors and it 
lost 
many of my notes and all my Source Text and  probably more).  If there is a 
way to export enabling Family Tree Maker  to retrieve this information I'd 
probably switch to Legacy Deluxe 5  .
