If this is so, is it possible for us to BE ALLOWED to do
merges WITH LEGACY FIRST INFORMING us that bad, very bad, things may
happen *and* that
Brian,
I for two, would also like to have the opportunity to merge the old
and the new and face any dire consequences with a warning I am
sure there are others that also would like that choice...
Thanks...

Legacy isn't known for doing things that would cause a
corrupted file. The owners/programmers use Legacy for their
personal research and I think you'll find the program
I believe some-one wrote a few days ago that the Source Conversion tool
is due in the next build, so perhaps removing what we had was a
preliminary step?

Thank you, Richard. I have not seen any announcement from Legacy that
the source conversion tool is ready to be released but even if it
is, I would still like to know what is wrong with the combine method
and why it was taken away.

Hi Lew,
I too was very upset with Legacy after upgrading from build 55. I had
done a half dozen merges of old syle to source writer which required
only slight touch ups. By the time I got back to trying to do more

not allowing.
Maybe so, but it would be nice if Legacy would at least acknowledge
why the merge feature has been removed and tell us the pitfalls of
