Over the Christmas holiday I gave myself a present and built a new computer
from scratch, the way I want it to be; I also got tired of guests and
grandkids changing everything on our shared computer! After I got it up and
running basic programs and I knew I had a stable system I decided to install
other programs and move my Legacy files over. I installed the software, via
the installation wizard on the CD. I then took the most recent Legacy backup
ZIP file from my old computer and extracted it on the new one. Everything
seemed to be fine, I checked several recent general entries on individuals
and they all transferred to the new computer just fine.

But now that I am trying to add information in the Source area and I have
noticed something a bit strange. To be specific, I wanted to cite a source
from the Master Source List for a record but when I click on the  "book"
icon (Show List of Assigned Sources) I get the ususal sub screen shot but
there are few or no choices of events to choose from, such as "Name",
"Birth", etc.n or whatever I am looking for. For instance, if I choose a
person that I had cited some sources in the past those sources do appear and
I can edit them if I choose but there are no other events to choose from in
the list and if I choose an individual who I had no sources cited for there
is just a big blank area. In other words I can't select an event to cite the
source or create a new source. Shouldn't these have been in my backed up
file?

Any help would be appreciated. I have tried the HELP file but to no avail.
