I enjoy the program, but there is no one out there to ask a question of. Just buy the program and pray!

In summary, I would recommend Legacy Family Tree to a friend.

The features in Legacy are about average for what you'd expect of a family tree program but there're many more user friendly programs on the market. I use Legacg, FTM, FTB, PAF and CGR depending on what I want to do and which reports I want to run.

But would you trust your family tree data, data that has been collected after years of painstaking research, to a program that does not correctly export to a Gedcom?

Legacy is more concerned with developing new features rather than fixing the bugs in their current version. Below is correspondence with their "support" department when I discovered a bug in the system..a bug they claim to have known about and fixed in Oct 2012 but the fix has not been released as at 6 Feb 2013..

I know exactly what happens.

I'm going to close this discussion. There is nothing more to add. We just have to wait for the programmers to release the next update.
