David - they would need a copy of Legacy family tree to open your database.
This is one way: Use a cloud service. WHATEVER you do -provide ONLY a copy of your database, perhaps paired down to the section they are interested in. When they have "updated" - then check the data & if you agree - then YOU - add the info to your real family tree. Cloud services such as Dropbox & other cloud services - will allow any person you choose to look & open anything you have placed in the"cloud". Click & it will give you a linc to email to your specific relative. To create a copy - just left click & copy your .ftb - then drag & drop into you shared cloud (usually found C:\Users\NAME\Documents\Legacy Family Tree\Data\Legacy\NAME OF.fdb) Throughout all of this: BACKUP - again & again & again. Never, Ever, No not ever, - allow a 3rd person to edit your database.
