Valerie,
What are you trying to do?

Ancestry etc online trees don't have all the fields for data that Legacy has and even when they do, they don't use a Gedcom the same way.  eg uploading to Ancestry - Notes don't go in a public field and are put all in the one Notes field. Event notes turn up as unnamed citations, ...

It's not a good idea to upload to an online tree, add data to the online tree and then expect to download it again to your Legacy database. Far too much cleanup. It's actually quicker to double enter data in an online tree and in Legacy. You can use Ancestry tags to keep track of what you need to enter into your Legacy database.
