Hi,
Just would like to know if I can delete old versions of Legacy that I
see on my computer? Would it cause any problems?
Thank you

Hi Diane,
You do not say where you see these old versions. Are they in the
list of installed programs? Are they in the list of files found
on your machine using Windows Explorer? Are they in both?
If the old versions are in your installed program list along with
the latest version of Legacy, AND the directories for the old
versions are in your directory and file lists in Windows explorer
it might be safe to use the add/remove programs to remove ALL
versions of Legacy then do a reinstall of the latest version.
I would not recommend using Add/Remove programs to remove only
the old versions. Doing this might affect those files that all
programs need to install in such directories as Windows, System
etc that are shared between the old versions and the latest one.
If they do not appear in the list of installed programs but the
directories are still on your hard disk it is probably safe just
to delete the contents of the directories. Make sure though that
none of your precious data files such as pictures, video, sound
and *.fdb files are in these directories first.
