As I said, for that situation I'd look up the similar event and then
use the Repeat functions and do my edits and the Source Clipboard and
edit the detail there.

On the Legacy home page, there is an updates box. If you click on the word
Updates a box will open. In the center of the box will be a link to See
What's New. Click on that link and you will find what was updated.

You will probably need to download the latest build of Version 5. Try the
following link:
http://www.legacyfamilytree.com/helpDownloadVersion5.asp#5
Once this is installed, you should be able to open your v.5 database.

Legacy will soon be version 7. I believe that if you buy now (version

Thanks, Glen. I think I better read up on the site more. Going to version 6
might be the best plan after all. I didn't want to spend extra $$ right now,

Decisions, decisions. Thanks again.

Arnold,
You are referring to the Delux Version; the Basic Version 6 is free and I
expect Version 7 (Basic) will be the same. Nancy did not say which of
Basic/Delux she is using. However what you say is correct fothe Delux Versions.

You're right, it will allow me to have a free upgrade to 7 when it's available.
Thank you for pointing that out.

I would double check your one computer to see if you actually have
Legacy 6.0 on there instead of 5.0. Because if it was 5.0, then your

One thing that also occurred to version 5 was that it went from one

You do not say which report you are referring to. The available options vary
from report to report and are not always available - it also depends on exactly

I'm not sure whether there was a problem with this with an earlier
