Linking is not a problem with Legacy 7.5. I still use Legacy 7.5, and all my media are in various folders on my NAS (Network Attached Storage) drive. There is no problem whatsoever having Legacy link to any folders on that drive. I also have my Legacy backups, all gedcoms, et alia stored in a folder on that drive. Legacy itself must reside in a Legacy folder on my C:\\ drive, but that's all.

That does seem something that I could benefit from as I spend a lot of time on as currently I have my media in a folder on my desktop and another one in Legacy which the tree program links to. So are you saying it would get used to linking to the folder on my desktop?

I find for my purposes that there are way too many options already in 7.5 De Luxe. The only bug I have with this version is that when the system is searching for a misplaced me dia file it almost always stops part way through the search but it does usually finish in the end so not such a big deal. I could be convinced to upgrade to 8 but my thoughts at the moment are "better the devil you know". Barbara
