I downloaded Picasa2 and it looks very nice to organize my pictures. Problem is that now my pictures that are already attached in Legacy are MIA. I also cannot attach new pictures. I tried changing the location of the pictures in the options list but don't know exactly where to point the path.

If I remember correctly, Picasa does not actually 'store' your photos, but will index them and give you access to where you have stored them. It should be able to find any photos on your computer and give you access to them. Where do you have your Legacy photos stored - is it within the

Diane, A Gedcom is only a text file and can be opened and read in any text file eg Notepad. However, the easiest (and cheapest) way may be to import it back into legacy giving it a different name and one can then look at the index. This would certainly be the best if it is a large file. Ron

I think the dictionary is the MSOffice one, and it is not created with many non-business words. Each time you add words to the file, they will be permanent. This includes all Surnames, First Names, Place Names You are correct about being careful when adding in more, but I at one time was given
