Hi Flora, Where is your Legacy 7.5 installed? Yesterday it looked as if you had it installed in Program Files. Legacy 7.5 should not be installed in Program Files as it writes to its program folder continually and recent versions of Windows don't allow that. That's why the default installation path for Legacy 7.5 and earlier is C:\Legacy
With the changing the sex of a person. You can't do this with the radio buttons if the person has a partner or child. You need to use the Edit - Swap husband and wife. You can't change the living status if there is anything at all in the Death or Burial fields. There is no problem with having Legacy 7.5 and Legacy 8 on the same computer. They just can't read the same files as the database structure has changed with Legacy 8. Cathy Flora wrote: > > Hello, > > I'm wondering if my Legacy 7.5 has corrupted?
