<<This works if both splits are open to the same file (regardless of individual) but I cannot get it to work when each split is open to a different file L
Ian>> We must be talking past each other, because I often use this method within a single file and between different files in a split screen. The only requirement is that you "save" the individual information as it currently is, regardless of when it was entered. That saved information becomes a template from which you can use any piece of information you wish, in any database. I don't know if Legacy remembers the last one saved when it is closed - it very well could. I have 2 files that I record current happenings in, identically in both, and I call up split screen, enter the personal information in one database, save it, then go to the other database and copy each newly entered information by clicking on the field name. Is that how you are trying to use this method?
