For me, the problem is all the other file types (photos, documents, etc.)--they are everywhere, but my database and other data are all in Legacy. Even you guys who keep your stuff "outside" Legacy, don't keep it in lots of different places, do you? "Free" does not always mean useful.
But thanks for sharing. ;) And I would be interested to know why you use more than one genealogy application (which would be how you would have these different types of genealogy files, right? besides GEDCOM). What do they have that Legacy does not? Or are you in the process of converting -- getting organized?

It's a great way to find where all the genealogy files are on your computer - it can look for Legacy, PAF, gedcom, Family Tree Maker, Ancestral File, Heritage Family Tree, TMG and Genbox files. Once you have located the file, there's an "Action" list to allow you to open the file in the appropriate program, open the folder that the file is in, bookmark the file or exclude it from the list (if it's a file with the same file extension as a genealogy file but is *not* a genealogy file) Sincerely, Sherry Technical Support Legacy Family Tree On Mon, Sep 19, 2011 at 5:20 PM, Jerry <[email protected]> wrote: > I checked it out and it pulls up eight different genealogy software > programs' data files including Legacy.
