I think what you're doing is how it works. Unfortunately. That's why I don't link files. To Legacy or to anything. If I'm looking for a file I'd rather find it in its original location, whatever that is and whenever. Thankfully Windows can be searched. Linking files is a thankless task and when you've had enough you'll stop. --- JL Beeken JLog - simple computer technology for genealogists http://www.jgen.ws/jlog/
