Michele,


I thought this was addressed in the last few days where someone from Legacy 
support did say that it’s possible to download an older version, and providing 
that you have a backup from that previous version, you could restore and 
continue to use the older version. It was in the context of ‘what happens if 
the latest update (Aug 13) which does a file conversion somehow corrupts the 
file’. Not exactly your situation as your converted working file seems fine.



I can’t find it in the archives but will continue looking.

Subject: [LegacyUG] Is this possible?



Is it possible to go back to the previous Legacy version before this last 
update?  The last update did something to my Legacy file and I can’t fix it.  
Tech support worked on it for quite a while yesterday and they can’t figure it 
out.  In a nut shell, my main file is okay.  However, if I try to export, 
whether to another Legacy file or a GEDCOM, the resulting file is corrupt.  I 
get an error 3021 if I try and use the clipboard to copy an event.  It doesn’t 
matter what I tell the program to export or not export.  It gets even better…  
If I try and open the exported GEDCOM using RootsMagic, the RM file then has an 
error.  I can see the list of names on the left side but if I click on anyone 
nothing happens at all.



This is definitely an exporting issue because my main file remains perfectly 
okay.  I can copy and paste events to my heart’s content.  The problem I am 
having is that I have lost 2 full days of work and I am working on a project 
with a deadline.  If I can’t get this resolved, I am going to have to switch 
over to RootsMagic for this project which I do not want to do.  I am just not 
familiar enough with RM and that means I will be going very S L O W.
