Thanks, Ron -- I was beginning to think I was in the Twilight Zone! I just thought this happened to everybody. We can feel special now. :-D

Kris,

As far as I know, not to run it all day is the only solution. At one time I left Legacy running all day and had similar problems (and others), although I never lost data. Since shutting down when I'm not going to use it for a while all has been OK.

I've had this problem since I first started using the program, but it's
never caused any "damage" so I just figured it was "one of those things."
Tonight, though, there was an issue, so --

After the program is running for awhile, if I click on a name, when the
individual view comes up, there's no data in it. If I just "cancel" out,
close the program (backup stalls, so I don't try to do that anymore), and
reopen it, everything's fine. But tonight it happened and I lost the
personal information for the individual. He was listed as "unknown" and
his birth, death and burial info was gone. The events and sourced were
still there, though.

Since this happens pretty much every day I use it (because I just start
everything up in the morning and shut it down at night -- so it runs all
day), with all the computers I've used, it's just something I've gotten
used to. But now that I have lost data, I'd like to know how to avoid it
happening again.

Is the solution just to not leave it running so long?

Thanks,

Kris
