Hi Richard,
Thanks for helping. Okay as I understand your explanation, I'll leave my
pictures and documents in folders under C:\My Pictures and not under TMG 5.3
in \Pics.
By a "step-by-step" I meant something like--- Is it better to do all my
scanning through PhotoImpact7, which happens to be my photo editing
software, than to scan them in through Acquiring them in TMG. It seems to
me it would be easier to set up all the images in folders in PI 7 first,
then later, in TMG add them as Exhibits. Am I right?
TMG is so far ahead of me in thinking of data entering that I wonder how it
was meant to be done.
Hope I made myself clear.
Mary Jo

as Exhibits which I've got saved in my C:\My Pictures folder I searched the
Archives and found ....
I'm confused. Is it better to save all these External .jpg files under \My
Pictures where I already have many subfolders for separating each of my
ancestral families or should I keep documents in TMG5's "pics" folder?
