Hello Susan I have loaded the latest Legacy update , and am using Windows XP with whatever MicroSoft considers is the latest update, as they handle that part automatically. Cathy replied this AM and basically said that it was odd, but not to sweat it - stuff happens.
Since there was no real problem, I'll go along with her, but in future if I want edit or change the picture selected, I will delete the existing one first and then re attach from the desktop, or wherever. It may be a little slower that way, but it's safer. I don't have any problems with PDF, and am running an old version (4) of Adobe. I just ran a test to see and it produced the file just fine. Have fun. Bruce --- Susan Daily <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Bruce, > I had this happen to me a week before I installed the latest build to > Legacy 5.
