Thank you, Ron. I do have a slow internet connection, so I was hoping to avoid having to download Legacy again. I didn't think I could get away with this, but thought it wouldn't hurt to ask. But that isn't the end of the world. The important thing is to keep all that hard work on my family file safe. In regards to the .usr files, data file, and multimedia files -- after downloading Legacy again, I assume I just unzip them and drop all three into the new Legacy folder. I just did what I should have done in the first place and found the "Backup and File Restoration" article at the Legacy website.
