Here's a little tip for you.
Nearly all the USR files that can be found in the Legacy folder/directory are
text files and can thus be opened (and edited) with Notepad. The problem is
matching each line in a particular file, with the options and screen to which
they refer.

Legacy does not hold any pictures at all, only the paths to where you have
them stored. It seems probable that what you are seeing is a simple example of
the bigger a database then the longer it takes to search.

Hi Bill,
The number of pics handled by Legacy is limitless. Legacy does not store or
copy your pics in a separate database. Rather, Legacy links to your current
pictures. That is why you have to tell it where the files are located. Legacy
does provide a folder for pictures if you choose to
Ron, thanks. That is a good point about the the source images I have
stored in the Legacy/pictures folder not actually being in Legacy.
I think that Legacy may read and render those images in
Legacy/pictures so that it can present the small pictures in the
gallery. In my case that is 13 small

I have only about 100 picture files so far. They are a mix of JPG, TIF and PDF.
I am exploring the possibility that it may be the total number on
pictures in one-single gallery that causes my trouble. What is the
maximum number of pictures you have in any one single gallery?
How much memory do you have on your computer? Which version of Windows

better with 4 MB.
Do you have other programs running in the background when going into

Yup, it could be only one picture that causes the problem.
I linked over 25 pics to one individual, most of them larger TIFs, and
that Picture Gallery is always slower to load than the one with over

Howland Davis and Gene A,
I agree with Howland that Legacy does *NOT* provide an Ahnentafel

which passes for an Ahnentafel Report.
IMHO, an Ahnentafel Report simply provides the following:
#1. My name
#2. My father's name
#3.
Michelle,
That wouldn't be my choice but nothing really objectionable about that.
If you have MS Access go to tblBP and do a search and replace: Find
C:\Legacy\Docs\ Replace with C:\genealogy\.
If you have ltools let us know and someone will write a query to do it

Bill,
For example, in Family View in the row of icons below the parents' boxes within

It is, of course, part of the Picture Gallery.

Agreed. When I moved from XP to Windows 7, Legacy connected automatically even
