Ron,
I'm confused. The photos themselves aren't duplicated, only the links in
the database--it two duplicate links to exact same photo. Are we talking
about the same thing??
Thx!
I REALLY APPRECIATE EVERYONES HELP WITH THIS!!! YOU GUYS ARE GREAT!! MUCH
BETTER SUPPORT THAN I HAD WITH THE OTHER PRODUCT THAT CAUSED THE PROBLEM
TO START WITH! LOL

Lisa,
A thought has come to mind! But first how many different picture
folders do you have for Legacy? The reason I ask this. is that if you
merge the pictures into one folder (I realise this may be very big)
when doing so Windows will draw your attention to the duplicates (
assume that they have the same file name?) and you can just refuse to
merge them.
It is a simple matter for Legacy to find the new location as all you
need to do is when it finds a missing picture is to point it to the
folder with all the pictures in and it will then find the others. You
can always split the find later and redirect Legacy to the new folder.

I'm in the process of learning Legacy, but I have a problem I'm hoping
some of the experts on this group can help me with. Another software
program put in duplicate entries for photos and documents (all
duplicates are multimedia items) attached to the genral person or a
person's fact item. They are EXACT duplicates referencing the same
image, and making the image and it's description appear twice on a
fact/person. :( Is there a way to have Legacy search for and
consolidate/remove so that there is only one reference to each
multimdedia item? If not, is there a way for me to get Legacy to give
me a list of people with duplicates so I can more easily locate them.
This is a MESS and I'm hoping Legacy, which is apparently a much more
powerful application, can help me straighten it out.
Thx!
Lisa
