You can either make a COPY of your family file and move that over, or you can BACKUP your family file and restore it on the laptop. If you have been used Legacy 8 on your desktop pc you will presumably know where to save the files. What have you used to get other files from one machine to the other? - a pen drive, portable hard drive, bluetooth or what? I'd recommend you make a backup in the usual way, but backup to your external device. Then plug the device into your laptop and restore the backup. -- 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).
