Hi Darlene,
I am afraid it is not entirely clear from your email as to what you have
actually done. Did you download the Ancestry pkg as a Gedcom and zip that,
did you download as a Gedcom and merge into your own fdb file and then back
that up using Legcay ....etc?
If you merged into your own file and backed up using Legacy then you can
load the zipped back up by going to File>Restore. You will be asked to give
it a name so I would use a new one, otherwise you may overwrite one which
you want.
If you have zipped the Gedcom then unzip and use File>Import from >Gedcom.
If these are not the options which you need then please clarigy.
Ron Ferguson
