Hi, I have not yet upgraded to v8 and have just been "lurking" on the list, reading some threads on the upgrade... but am I reading this correctly? All my media will be "unlinked" during the upgrade process?? I mean, I see you say there are "two new tools" to help me relink my media, but surely I shouldn't have to DO anything... the upgrade process should give me a fully linked, fully functional set of data, right? Call me naive, but I can't imagine Millenia would be that sloppy. Thanks in advance for clearing up my misunderstanding, --Paula
<snip> The pictures will also be there but just not linked properly in the converted file. Legacy 8 has two new tools to help you. The first one in the Media Relinker. This may take a while but it will help you relink all your media. The second one is the Gather My Media tool. This can help you gather all your media into one folder if it is scattered all over the place OR can gather just the odd file that you forgot to put into your media folder or a sub-folder of that media folder. <snip> Legacy User Group guidelines: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/Etiquette.asp Archived messages after Nov. 21 2009: http://www.mail-archive.com/legacyusergroup@legacyusers.com/ Archived messages from old mail server - before Nov. 21 2009: http://www.mail-archive.com/legacyusergroup@legacyfamilytree.com/ Online technical support: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/Help.asp Follow Legacy on Facebook (http://www.facebook.com/LegacyFamilyTree) and on our blog (http://news.LegacyFamilyTree.com).
