The most important thing to do first is BACK UP YOUR LEGACY DATABASE. Then you just open your Legacy database as you would any other database file, except you need EITHER to rename it from .fdb to .mdb OR select "All files (*.*)" as the file type before selecting your database in Access. Don't change anything unless you really know what you're doing and if you do change something and it all goes pear-shaped ... well, you did backup, didn't you? -- 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
