The problem: Legacy thinks there are TWO of me. I am my own doppelganger!
I have Legacy 4.0 Deluxe. I recently changed from Windows 98 to XP. I didn't realize it for a while, but in that switch I "lost" Legacy. I downloaded the free version from the web. That's when I lost the use of the "Deluxe" version. Without the Deluxe or because of who-knows-what, when 4.0 would start up my name and info wouldn't be shown on the screen. My wife, children, and parents would all be there, but my spot was blank. If I clicked on my grandfather and then father, I would show as a child, and then I could click on myself and have my info on the screen.
So instead of mousing around like this daily, I just added myself in the blank hole where I was supposed to be, and everything seemed to be OK. Then I discovered I didn't have the Deluxe anymore, so I re-added the Deluxe code and got those features back. I have Version 4.0.0.288. Build Date 17 Nov 2003.
However, now I am listed twice under my parents. I am RIN #1 in both listings. My father now shows up as being married to my mother twice - she is RIN #4 in both. My mother shows two husbands - both my father, and he is RIN #3 in both.
All three of us are only listed ONCE in the VIEW - NAME LIST. With our correct RIN numbers.
I tried to delete one of my selves, but since both have the same RIN, I was completely gone from my own ancestry. I tried to merge, but I only have one RIN now so there is nothing to merge.
I hope I have explained this well enough to get some help. I am stumped, and I want to be rid of my doppelganger!
Thank you,
