you describe would be to provide a confidence factor based on the
quantity of DNA allele matches and the supporting tree structure. A

Nor would I, but according to Sherry, that is Millennia's recommended method!
Once chosen, Legacy remembers my backup folder.
Perhaps you're only using one data file, so not changing folders

Yes, Dennis - but is that only because it's the last folder you accessed?

So what is the point of Legacy asking us for a default folder for

Hi Mary,
I understand the point that you are making and I agree if your default is
set to eg. C:/Legacy/Data then this is the folder which should be opened on
all occasions. My observation was just one based on what I have seen in
numerous programs and I do not know why when a default is set
A save always goes to the default a backup to the last used *backup* folder

How do you set Legacy to go to the cd rw drive? I have to find the backup
file and then write to a cd with the cd software. Is there a more automatic
way to do this? Thanks, Virginia

For me the default family file folder seems to be used always (even
for backups) except if I open a file in a different folder and then
open a second; this time that different folder is initially used.
However, I didn't do a whole lot of testing as I keep all my Legacy
files at
Good idea ...

If you have a CD RW drive with CD RW disk formated as such it it, all
you should need to do is point to it when Legacy asks for the
filename and location.

This is quite correct. In Excel for example, the first file open will
be from the default directory set in Excel. However, subsequent
File-Opens will default to the last used folder.

Exporting everything to a new Legacy file rather than a Gedcom also
sometimes works where Check/Repair doesn't. Avoids any Gedcom hassles.

If you're going to back-track, you need to do the following steps else
you'll run into problems:
1. Uninstall Legacy 6.0. This will not delete any of your family files,
pictures or other data. It will only remove Legacy 6.0.
2. With Windows Explorer find and look in the C:\Legacy folder or
30 matches
