Hi Carlos,
You've misunderstood.
In Legacy you have a choice of including Baptism amongst the
birth/death events OR with other events like Graduation.
You also have the choice, when including it in the birth/death events
section, of calling it Baptism or Christening.
You can also place Alterna

I recently discovered that my G Grandfather changed his name and year of
birth some time before he married my G Grandmother.
I am wondering how I can record that as it isn't just a matter of using AKA
the year difference interferes with that.
Any suggestions?

The reason for making a backup on the SAME computer is that your main
Legacy file can become corrupted BUT your backup is fine so you can
recreate your main file from the backup.
Obviously you also want to make backups in some way that is not part of

This may be the problem.
If you are trying to open the file on the CD, you can't as you can't
