Re: [LegacyUG] Dictionaries V7 - V8
Jay, I have to correct you on this answer. The files in C:\Program Files x86\Legacy8\ are only for installing Legacy. A lot of the files are kept there only to give users a source to get a backup copy in the case that the running copy gets damaged or more importantly, to restore a default copy of some settings files. The files in [My Documents]\Legacy Family Tree are what are installed on your PC for the running of the program. All of the sub-folders there hold the files that are for the various GLOBAL settings during the running of Legacy.* *See below for exceptions. The Family File Specific settings are in two places: (1) [My Documents]\Legacy Family Tree\Data\ --> This is the default location for your Family Files and the Family File specific settings are embedded in the each Family File. --> This and its associated \Media\ are what folks often move to a separate family files folder. (2) [My Documents]\Legacy Family Tree\_App_Data\Usr\Profile.dbm --> This is file is a global file that holds the user's default customization settings, including the USER's default settings for all of the User's Global (gbl) and Family File (FF) specific settings. The key concepts are: Program Files - Install [My Documents] Global Settings Family File - Each family file's specific customizations settings. ok? john.

RE: [LegacyUG] Dictionaries V7 - V8
Group, My original question has been answered. Prior to copy/paste V7 userdic-au.tlx file from C:\Legacy\Dictionaries to C:\Users\XXX\Documents\Legacy Family Tree\_AppData\Dictionaries, (XXX being computer name) plan to open in text editor and verify entries. Am sure that over the years there have been a couple of entries sneak through which were in fact incorrect. Further to Jay’s previous post, review of C:\Program Files (x86)\Legacy8\_AppData\Dictionaries indicates no files included.
