An rtf file means a Rich Text File, a generic type of
advanced word processor format.
I assume you have been sent this by someone and it

then the answer is yes. Click read, set the type of file to All Files and
save. Text formatiing sticks, apart from colour. If you are trying to

I just updated my Legacy and a new box appeared that I don't know anything
about. It appears next to the label Husband or Wife. It's not ticked, and
when I move the mouse over it, Not in Current Ancestor Line appears. What
