Hi y'all,
I think there has been a lot of good advice
on this very important question.
First, does your present version work properly for you.
Does it do all you want it to do?
Second, do you want more, another feature or three?
Third, is the update version really ready?
Or is it having issues?

Actually MS stopped supporting XP several years ago but continued to
update security issues. They are stopping support to security on 8 April 2014.
I purchased a KVM cable/switch that will allow me to use 1 monitor and 1
keyboard and go between my computer with XP and the one with Win 7 Pro

Legacy Family Tree!?!? ha ha ha
But, yes, I agree. I have a totally functional old desktop that I still
use for kids games and tutorials that runs Windows XP (OK, it contains
some of my old games too). It will never get upgraded
Hi y'all
Sorry.
Just another senior moment.
I also lost 30 minutes this morning
and was late to the Y.
I wonder what is next!!
Correct date for XP end of life
is 8 April 2014.
I'm still laughing.

I'm using Legacy 7.4.0.45 and an quite happy with it. I prefer to keep
my tree plain and simple and have found that this version, along with
LTools, provides just about everything I could ask for. I'm not an

Helen,
I am the Keeper of a fairly large database for a family association with lots
of collaborators. It is not possible for good collaboration between version
7.5 and version 8 because the file structures have changed. Version 7 files
can be read by version 8 but not vice versa. Therefore,
Many of these bugs that were supposedly fixed in version 7.5.0.278 I've

the USA only and if the bug is there, I'd never find them and they
wouldn't bother me. And the improvements in 7.5 weren't improvements to

There are bugs in the version you are using, too - it's just that you're
not as aware of them as you are these v8 issues due to

That's great. Just remember that version 7.5 is unlikely to receive much more

that we should be made aware of the bugs first because where else can we

When it comes right down to it, whether you upgrade now or later to a later
version of Legacy, you will eventually upgrade only because as you upgrade
your computer you are almost forced to upgrade the software at some point.
So whether you choose to upgrade now or in the future, the discussions

How does this differ from what's available in Legacy Charting? I keep
an old version of a rival program on my hard drive for the rare occasion
I need a chart. I'm referring to the kind of chart where each name is in

Couple of points, no you do not have to be a member of any particular

Denise, Helen, et al,
One of the challenges with using 7.4,0.45 - or any version of 7.4 - is
that the version of FamilySearch that comes with that does not support
the current FamilySearch. It only works, if it works at all, with the
version of FamilySearch that was recently made read only and

A good point, John. Still, as often as they're changing FS,

First, COPY COPY COPY was just for emphasis. If you convert your only

FS gets bug fixes with many new L8 builds. But Millennia is not
sending out new builds of L7.5 so that version is not getting those updates.
