[LegacyUG] Old fdb file - how to open it?

Hello I have been given a very old fdb file by a friend who wants me to look at it to enable migration of the data to a newer family tree software i.e. Legacy. It was last modified in 1998 according to the properties of the file in Windows Explorer. That doesn't tell me which version it was in Le

Download the latest version of Legacy, the Free Standard version will do. That will be able to open any older version of the file and will convert it to the latest file format. If you need to retain the original format for some reason make a copy of the old .fdb file first then open the copy in th

Sorry yes I did mean v2. It was just an idea to try to open it there instead of the latest version as neither will open the file. Hence my query does anyone know if there was another software program with the extension fdb before 1998? Ok I will send you the file at Support. Thanks. Jemima --
