These files are created by Legacy when you create a Focus Group (.FG) or a To-Do Clipboard (.TC). If you delete, and rerun these functions, Legacy will just re-generate them. Kind Regards, Mark > -Original Message- > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of > [EM

If I was you, I'd leave those alone. I don't know exactly what they are but if your database is for instance named My Family and then you have files called My Family.FG and My Family.TC, those are probably part of your database and why are you messing around in there? JL [EMAIL PROTECTED] wr
