William:
Have you tried opening that picture file in an imaging program such
as Gimp or Irfanview? If Legacy craps out on that file and FTM did on
the same file I would be tempted to think that the error may actually
be in that picture file and not with Legacy at all....especially
since Legacy does not incorporate picture files into itself the way
FTM. does. Legacy merely stores pointers to files...not the files
themselves. Your data should be fine....legacy saves data on the fly
not just at exit. To make sure of that I would go into legacy and run
a check/repair file twice. If you want to verify that the data has
been saved, check for the last name entered in your index
list....I'll bet it's there.Please come back to us with the
results...There are a lot of talented people on this list...We'll
help you get it sorted.

Legacy may be going the way FTM is--gone. I was trying to relink an
image and it crashed deleting my original image file. When I try to
go back in and continue where I left off, it crashes again.
I'm not bothering with this anymore. It's too much work and if I
can't get past the crashes I'm just wasting my time.
Fed up with genealogy programs.
