Hello I am new to this group and Legacy but not new to Genealogy and now have almost 2000 people in my tree. Like many others I have loved the Generations software and have nursed it through many versions of Windows (now Windows 7) and it is no longer reliable enough to not have another program plus the newer software has other advantages. I chose Legacy because it most reminded me of Generations in it family card! Having transferred a Gedcom from Generations to Legacy I find that despite telling it to put data it does not know where to put into notes it is not transferring the memo field and I have a lot of information in there (for example) for the memo associated with a death I have put cause of death. Also in my Generations notes I have put sources next to particular pieces of information and these associations have not transferred.
Apologies to the vast majority of users who will not be interested but I am hoping that some people have done this recently enough to remember any fixes and might be able to help.
