Ron, Thanks for a very helpful suggestion.
I loved that ltool (Find Unattached Multimedia) but it became almost impossible to use in L8 because of Legacy replacing the default path: C:\Users\Richard\Documents\Legacy Family Tree\Media\v\ with: [Default Media Folder]\in tblBP.PicPath Opening the ltool I get message: "ltools unable to locate default media folder. Please manually select Toot media folder." I browse to and select sub-folder "Our_Lady_of_Hope" Doesn't matter if "Only display media Unattached" is checked or not I get "Wrong Folder","C:\Users\Richard\Documents\Legacy Family Tree\Media\v\Docs\Cemetery\Our_Lady_of_Hope","DSCN1245a.jpg","C:\Users\Richard\Documents\Legacy Family Tree\Media\v\Docs\Cemetery\Our_Lady_of_Hope\Docs\Cemetery\Our_Lady_of_Hope","4","35","Individual (Burial Event) RIN = 35" But, as you suggested it does show me the RINs of the 4 people's headstone pictures in that directory. However the Legacy method I complained about originally works fine in that directory too and is much easier and just what I want. Those 4 pictures are all Burial Pictures. No Source, just pictures I took. As Brian/ Support said it matters how Media is applied to Individuals so will do more checking. Thanks again. -- Richard Van Wasshnova On Fri, Jun 13, 2014 at 7:02 AM, Ron Taylor <[email protected]> wrote: > Richard, > I know that you are an experienced Legacy user.
