I've not tried to use the "Source Template Conversion Tool" as explained starting on page 72 of Legacy 7 manual. Dose it actually work as shown? If so, I guess you also have need to include the "source detail"?
I was tempted to change a few, but have a lot to change and don't want to create more of a mess than I already have. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Hopefully they will have done something by the time I'm ready to write.

There are a couple of ways - using Access or Ltools - of mechanising the process slightly and thus saving a certain amount of manual slog, but there is no way to have it done at the press of a few buttons. Just take them a few at a time and you will get there eventually! I have converted scores already, and a few days ago had 189 Basics still to convert, but that's now reduced to only 129 now. -- Jenny M Benson 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 <http://www.legacyfamilytree.com/LegacyLists.asp> No virus found in this incoming message.
