I was out of town for awhile and upon my return got back to this problem. I have no idea what I did wrong but, although I did get my missing GGF inserted ok, I have now apparently deleted my GGGF and all previous generations. When I do a search they are all still there (somewhere) but I can't figure out how to link them back to where they should be. Maybe it's just me, but Legacy seems to be very unforgiving when one makes a simple mistake. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated. Thanks much!
