As this seems to be a Microsoft Jet error I would try to be patient and
wait for Legacy Support on this issue. I only hope that you have been
diligent in backing up your files after each use of the program.

The question is more about what kind of processor your pc has, the amount
of RAM and Storage space, and then lastly the size of your file.

My initial good impression of the re-vamped FamilySearch is rapidly fading.
Whether this is due to failures with the LegacyFS code or the FamilySearch
website itself, I have no way of knowing. I am tending towards the latter.
I have an individual in my database who I have linked to FamilySearch.

I concur. On Windows/7, the Microsoft Security Essentials runs at the most

Here's a thought as a stop gap. Can you mark both genders as unknown and add
the actual gender in notes? Not ideal, but it should solve the problem in the
short run.
My two cents for what they're worth...

a future version of Legacy, but version 8.0. There is a work-around. Before you
