Okay, got it. Good luck. You are describing an entirely new and quite
sophisticated program. I doubt, given the manner in which Legacy stores
and structures its data, that it could work with an existing family
file. It might be done, but would require a huge amount of additional
manual work to populate and format the basic pages. Not a chance it
could be done within Legacy -- it can't handle a simple internal
hyperlink to another individual and that's been asked for since version 2.
