There have only been a few good windows versions IMO, Win 3.1.1, Win 95, Win

I guess it depends on how many pictures you have linked. It's always
been pretty quick for me.
However, if all of them need to be relinked, it's probably easier just
to let Legacy do it - start it up and go have a cuppa
If it's just one or two, it is a lot quicker to do it yourself.
Of course,
the image myself, and then
repeat for one image from each folder.

In that case, your database records no longer have any references to your
multimedia files. As result, subsequent backups will not have ZIPped any
multimedia files. Tha
