I am unsure of what you and your friend have done. I presume that she has installed Legacy onto her PC. To access the Legacy database file that you sent her, she needs to copy the file to her PC. She cannot access it from the CD. Once she has copied the file and if she wants to edit or add data, she will need to change the file attrributes so that the file is not - Read Only. The CD file is a read only file. HTH -- Stuart Enter the drawing for a FREE Legacy Cruise to Alaska or a FREE research trip to Salt Lake's Family History Library. Open to users of Legacy 6 Deluxe.
