If you are technically minded, you can install Oracle Virtual Box (free) and 
install a windows environment within that virtual box (Old Win XP Installation 
disk required).  You can then install Legacy and copy your fdb into that 
environment.

You do need to be careful to only update the fdb in your host(primary) 
operating system.  You also need to copy the fdb from the host to the Virtual 
Box system every time you want to keep the 2 fdb files in synchronisation.

Subject: [LegacyUG] two instances of Legacy



As a possible aid to my conversion of sources, can I open the same Legacy file 
on two monitors (same computer) so I can see what I have and what I am doing?



Just looking for ways to simplify the process.
