So when you click on the big L in the blue circle at the top-left, it does not show other family files recently loaded? Or, better yet, scan your hard drive for:*.fdb Sort the results by date - the 2nd most current date is probably the one you want (most current date is probably the old one

Karen, You can find out where your backups are by going to File Backup and seeing where it says it is saving it. That's where your backups will be. In future don't save files without checking where they are going and changing that, if necessary, to where you want them to go. This also means

Yes, with the Legacy FamilySearch integration. You can move individuals either way, to or from FS/FT. You can also move a GEDCOM into FT, but before it is integrated into FT you have to individually ensure that each person is not already in FT, and then link the person in the correct place. FT

Ordinance information on non-living is not really that confidential. If you look at the Sample file with the LDS option enabled, you'll see that in Geoff's file. Anyway, there's no problem with sharing that data. With LDS option disabled, that option will not be included in reports and web pages

Sherry and Mike, Mike, thanks for your reply, but the files already passed though Legacy versions prior to 7 with no indication of LDS content, so likely no tools re. such. I do have Win 2k and XP CDs, but files go back to 98 and 95 days, and I have no equipment with compatible drivers etc.

Thanks, Sherry, for the ordinance guidance, and I had not thought of exporting in native mode, which avoids side effects from gedcom use. That should work fine. If AFN numbers are stripped, that's not a big issue, and I'll keep backup with them. Thanks also, Brian, for alerting me to that. kb
