Hello Ron and all:I apparently fixed the problem with Error 3163.  I shortened the longest file names manually (which took me quite a while :-) ) and did another backup and did not get the error message.  I think that the path name was too long, as was suggested.You all are geniuses!  Thank you!Lis

 Check/Repair did not solve the problem, although it was worth trying.  Thank you, Bobby.Ron and others - do you know of a way that I can pinpoint the file name that is too long?  I have recently linked MANY pictures to this family file, so I guess that the name of one or more of them is too long.

Hi Jenny: And I agree. The reason that I switched from FTM to Legacy is that Legacy is much better. However, this issue is an important one. I have also seen others discuss this on the internet. The post before yours from James may explain some of the drawbacks that I have been speaking of. Thank

Good morning, Kirsten:Thank you for all of your time devoted to this issue. I just sent a post explaining that I just remembered from my Database Administrator days, (a long time ago...) that the sources in FTM must have been stored as a TABLE. That must explain the difference. I do like Legacy

Yes! Brett, that's exactly what I mean. I just remembered what might be the correct terminology...  I think that in FTM, the sources are in a TABLE and the way that they are listed is a TABLE LOOKUP. Something like that. So, maybe Legacy doesn't have the sources stored as a TABLE. That would expl

Hi all: It's been great receiving all of this help and I truly appreciate it! I don't think that anyone grasps what I'm trying to say, however, which is all my fault. Ok, using the census as an example, in FTM, I had them all listed under years. So, under the master source of 1870, I had many, ma

Thank you for your responses. I have done both of the things that Brian and Connie suggested. It works but is very cumbersome. I hope that Legacy updates the software with a way to easily list the citations that refer to each master source. It really is an efficient way to work with census inform
