He decided to quit updating LTools so it has not been updated to work with the new file structure used by Legacy 9.0. When I answered the original post I did not mention LTools as an option because I knew you cannot use LTools with a Legacy 9.0 database.

I just remembered that a few years back a user named Dennis (Kowalski, I
think) from Zipper Software created a program named “LTools” that
allowed slightly more advanced users to do some pretty neat stuff to
their legacy data file. However, I just checked, and his website states
that LTools has been retired.

I, too, had approximately 2,400 FAG#’s in the User ID field and just
finished cutting & pasting them all into the FAG ID field. Wasn’t very
fun. Sure would’ve been nice if I’d had some kind of script or something
to do the job for me. Oh, well.

Hello ...

I am happy that v9 has a FAG data field and direct link to this well
accepted and important genealogical tool.  For years I have been
capturing FAG memorials in my Legacy file by copying the FAG memorial
number into the UserID field.  Now that there is a dedicated FAG
memorial ID field, is there an easy way to mass copy the data from one
field to the other?  I'd like to avoid retyping (or linking) every
record connected to FAG in my file as there are over 4,500 records with
this data.

Thanks,

Scott
