Jenny, If you use the Gather Media tool it will put the documents/images in whatever folder you want (doesn't have to be the Media folder) but it will only gather to one folder.

But I presume the Gather Media tool would not keep all the separate folders within Media - or am I wrong? All my Source documents are in folders (or folders within folders) according to type and everything under one main genealogy folder on my C: drive because that is how they were before I ever started with Legacy. Photographs attached to people, events or locations within Legacy are in folders in Legacy's media folder and are smaller-sized JPGs of pictures (usually TIFFs) stored in my genealogy folder. -- Jenny M Benson Legacy User Group guidelines: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/Etiquette.asp Archived messages after Nov. 21 2009: http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/ Archived messages from old mail server - before Nov. 21 2009: http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/ 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).
