Thank you Ron, Mike, et al for your quick response. The answer I was looking for was the Options, Customize, Locations portal. I wasn't aware of it. So I will have to see what will be involved in changing the pointers. I will look at it tomorrow.
Yes, I realize that many computers use D: and sometimes E: if it has more than one CD/DVD drives. So a new HD may end up being anywhere between F: and Z: It doesn't matter to me, as long as I can tell Legacy to go there. Until I get acquainted with the customizing process, I can't say if it will be a viable solution. My concern is that in an attempt to "organize" my data, I set up a whole series of folders, and sub-folders, inside of sub-folders. Organized by country, state, county, family name, and individual names. In the individual's folder I put all media and document files pretaining to them. All these folders are within the DATA folder of Legacy. Each filename in any folder begins with the year to which the information applies. I would cry elephant tears if I had to change individual file pointers in the multimedia file. I am hoping that tomorrow I will find that I can do a replacement of all data files having a "C:\" at the front end of the filename, to a "E:\" Stay tuned, I will let you know more. Thanks again Willard ________________________________ 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
