I just lost a day and a half of intense data entry. When I saw how much data was lost, I ran around the ceiling, yelled and screamed for a couple of hours but it did no good. So, I'm appealing to Legacy users for more rational actions. I'm running Windows 7 and have plenty of space. I have the

Perhaps...but, Mike, why, specifically, is opening directly from Dropbox a problem? I've done it that way for over 8 months. No problem until today. I've been going over my Legacy file...it appears as though the links of the people I entered yesterday were broken. So far, I've found a number
