Becky, I did not have all that many "family" events, maybe 50 or so, as thankfully I hadn't used that feature very much. I just went into RM and changed them to regular events (did I have to delete them first and re-enter them somehow ? - it seems I couldn't change the event type, but I'm not sure), and then did my import again. In my case, it was faster than completely entering the events from scratch in Legacy. I'm sorry I can't remember exactly what I did. It's enough to make you pick a single program and stick with it!
