Hi Penny in Texas, There seem to be a number of people on this list that have moved over from FTM, I am beginning to understand why after using Legacy for a few days. Do you run FTM in tandem with Legacy or have you made a total change over? Did you have any problems in importing your FTM files, if so what were they and do you have any suggestions.

The Users Guide is out of print, but along with my purchase of Legacy Deluxe, I downloaded the Guide off Legacy's website. They sent me a link to download it in PDF. It comes in handy and sometimes points me to where to look in the help files that I hadn't thought about. When all else fails, there's always this list! (One of Legacy's best user resources.)
