Jan, That is not precisely what happens although it MAY seem that way. Once you re-link one photo to the "Murphy John" folder that folder is added to the folder list recognized by the Legacy database.
If the O.P. had a generically named file such as graduation.jpg in the "Murphy" folder and moved it to the "Murphy John" folder along with several others it would probably follow the first file linked to the correct sub-directory BUT if a file graduation.jpg existed in another folder such as "Jones Mary" it would most likely show Mary's graduation picture instead of John's because the "Jones Mary" sub-folder was added to Legacy before the "Murphy John" folder. -- Richard Van Wasshnova On Mon, Oct 18, 2010 at 6:49 PM, Jan Roberts <[email protected]> wrote: > Once you re-link one photo in the new folder all photos in that folder will > be re-linked. > (Please use Plain Text email format) > > Cheers > Jan > From: Barbara Tarbox [mailto:[email protected]] > Sent: Tuesday, 19 October 2010 12:41 > To: [email protected] > Subject: [LegacyUG] Renaming Legacy Pictures folders > > Due to the increasing amount of pictures that I am linking to Legacy, I want > to rename and/or add some Legacy picture folders to be more descriptive.
