Cathy, The update was on the server but did not trigger my program that it was available. This shouldn't happen no matter where the program is installed or where the family file is located. The program and data are in the default locations and 1.2 is set to open the last family file opened. The strange thing is that this is the second time it has happened to me and not in consecutive updates. The last time was early in the version 8 history. If no one else has this problem it must be with my setup. Everything is in the default locations and nothing strange about my data. Can't put my finger on what could be causing this. Thanks for your ideas.
