Since I have heard that Legacy and Access are intertwined, is there any data
written out that explains the columnar headings and their uses within the
various Access reports. I am particularly interested in the correlation of the
numbers noted in the columnar headings of 'SrcDetail',

I don't know of anything public that goes into this detail.

Simple answer: Yes. When you use SplitView, simply don't select a different
family file.
Better yet, make a copy of your family file, then open that one as a second
file, but do all of your editing in the original. If you run into a
problem you won't lose anything.

You could copy the notes for the individual to Notepad and then edit the
sources with that information displayed in Notepad.
In Legacy, select the individual and open the Notes.
In Windows click Start - Run, then type
notepad
in the box and click OK.
Back to Legacy, select and copy the desired
Janet,
Your question is very vague and I wonder if you could be more specific. Windows
and Vista operate quite differently and store data in different places. When
you installed Legacy7 from the Web on your Vista machine, did you follow the
instructions for Legacy?
You say: I did a backup
When I used to use Access at work, I printed a partial list of field names and
the 'long' versions for them. It is in the bottom of my file cabinet, since the
computer I created it on is long gone to the dump, I will try to find it. I am
curious about the reasons for 'explains the columnar

I do an easy work-around. I copy the notes and paste them into a word

OK Janet, let's take this slowly.
The first thing which I would like you to check is the location where you have
Legacy7 installed on your laptop. It is possible that Vista installed it in the
Program files, and if so it will not work properly. So would you let me know
whether your Legacy

Great.
Open the Data folder in C:\Legacy\Data and you should find your .fdb files and
your FileName.zip backup files. If not please come back to us.
Update Legacy to the latest version, and check that your delux option is
enabled (if you haven't already entered your number).
Open Legacy

I think I'm pretty much doing it as you do.

If you do the rename in the Picture Center within Legacy, all links to
that file should be updated.
If you do the rename outside of Legacy, you would need to relink every
occurrence.
Hope this helps.

A woman¹s maiden name is Susan Jane Jones. She marries a man whose last name

So she should, in my view, be referred to as Susan Jane Jones most of the
time, but sometimes by her married name

You said that you have your original files on DVD. You need to insert the DVD

To me Janis is doing what the standard is; the name of the woman, if the
married and maiden name are used, is first name (maiden name) married name.
But what Randolph was being told is that the order is first name, married name,
maiden name. That is very strange indeed and I would not want it
I've only seen the maiden name follow the maried name when it is expressed
thusly:
Mrs. Mary Jane Williams-Smythe (nee Hawley-Silverston), wife since 2007 of
George Percy Williams-Smythe, gave birth to a son, Percy Hawley, on 21 April,
