>From my experience the Legacy default location does not mater. In my database the default is still C:/Legacy/Pictures. But all of my pictures are located in C:/Genealogy Records/ and then subfolder and sometimes even a subfolder of that. And Legacy can always find the pictures. If you will go to a person with a picture and open that picture and then click the "Edit" button the details about the picture will open and near the bottom of the window you will see the exact location of that picture and the name of the file. That is how Legacy knows where a picture is not by the default location listed in the Options setting of the program.

If you also do the other steps I described, yes. Make backups of your files and try it. -- Dennis Kowallek (LTools) http://zippersoftware.com/ltools http://groups.yahoo.com/group/ltools Legacy User Group guidelines: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/Etiquette.asp Archived messages after Nov. 21 2009: http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/ Archived messages from old mail server - before Nov. 21 2009: http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/ Online technical support: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/Help.asp To unsubscribe: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/LegacyLists.asp Legacy User Group guidelines: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/Etiquette.asp Archived messages after Nov. 21 2009: http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/ Archived messages from old mail server - before Nov. 21 2009: http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/ Online technical support: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/Help.asp To unsubscribe: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/LegacyLists.asp
