Sue if your using WINDOWS 98 you can go to START, then RUN, then type in 'scanreg/restore' then choose one of the backups they offer made a day or so before you delted the programme. click on the one you want and it should be back to where you were 2 or 3 days ago. If you are using XP then someone else will be ablt to help you. TED.

Could you not uninstall ver 6 and reinstall ver 5 then use your code to get back the deluxe ver ? Steve.

Hi Steve The problem is the code was on version 5 which Has gone. I have emailed Legacy and asked if they can trace my registration although I dont hold out much hope. Sue

Update Credit where credits due. Two emails from them within the last two hours, the first saying it would be passed to sales, the second telling me how to get back to where I was this morning. So Legacy have sorted the problem for me and my computer is now back to exactly as it was this morning with no losses. Huge sigh of relief this end !!!!!! Sue
