Alright - I didn't read the final section relating to Spill File locations (it had no relevance to what I was looking for) so I didn't see the very final bit about the Customise Options. And although it was headed Customise Locations I thought that was just another section and not specifically related to my problem of wanting to test multimedia paths - I didn't want to customise where Legacy was to put them, I wanted to find where I had put the missing images.
