<<The best way to archive these "retired" files is to do a backup of each and then save the backup to CD or whatever. In the backup process, Legacy consolidates all those different files for you. Should you ever want to use the retired file again, copy it to your hard drive and do a File, Restore in Legacy.>>
Retired files would presumable not be used for some time, and in the meantime various versions of Legacy would be made. Will a backup of Legacy from one version *always* restore in any other version of Legacy? I am quite sure that a backup from a later version will not restore in an earlier version - can someone confirm this? I would think that the best form for a long term backup would be a GEDCOM file. You would lose some of Legacy's bells and whistles, but the data can be used in any file, and probably for longer in the future than any other form.
