I think this is the time-tested organizing programs by Mary E. V. Hill. (A Legacy user!) Two versions, I prefer the older version which is much simpler (being phased out, though, so download the PDF now if you're interested.) Really takes you step-by-step. Maybe I prefer it because I'm an older version, too? http://www.familysearch.org/Eng/Search/RG/frameset_rg.asp?Dest=G1&Aid=&Gid=&Lid=&Sid=&Did=&Juris1=&Event=&Year=&Gloss=&Sub=&Tab=&Entry=&Guide=ALL_REF_DOC_-_Organizing_Paper_Files.ASP the new version: https://wiki.familysearch.org/en/Organizing_Your_Files Hope this is useful.
