Ed, You can't run Legacy from the Flash drive. It must be installed on the hard drive. However, you can keep your Family File on the drive and read it from there.
If your local FHC doesn't already have Legacy on it's computers (many of them do), please have them contact [EMAIL PROTECTED] Thanks for using Legacy.

I just bought a USB memory stick (called a flash drive or jump drive, has 256 MB capacity) down at Best Buy. I bought it so that I have a way to store microfilm or book images from my trips to the library and Family History Center. But I got to thinking... Is it feasible to install a copy of legacy on the flash drive, and use it on the library or Family History Center computer? If so, I can have access to my whole database while I'm doing research! But... I don't know if legacy updates the registry or whatever. CAN I do an install to the flash drive, give that copy my deluxe customer number, and carry all I need from computer to computer?
