Does TheJournal software have any capabilities of importing data either through
proprietary formats such as Word, etc., or from a database? I'm thinking that
if it did, you might be able to import data directly from Legacy (MS Access
format?) into TheJournal without a lot of copy and pasting.
I agree with Lionel.
