leagacy 7.0 question?

i have legacy 7.0 .

I was told by a friend it was deluxe version by friend who gave disk after never using it but it is standard version.

I have alot of information on paper collected by aunt and sister and i want to delve further with new stuff that was not available to them.

My question is

If i start using standard 7.0 when i purchase 7.4 deluxe will i essentially have to start over again or will most data be easily transferred (everything in correct field etc )

and

Should i buy 7.4 deluxe i notice on legacy web site a 7.5? version is due out in near future. i.e if i buy 7.4 will i have to pay again for the upgrade to 7.5 when it arrives or is it simply an update? .

Thankyou in advance

    Hi,

    I use Legacy and I purchased 7.0 when it first came out and now I am using 7.4 and I have not had to pay for any upgrades so far and they assure me that I won't have to until the next major upgrade which would be 8.0. Even then, you would be able to use the standard version for as long as you like if money is an immediate issue but you wanted to go ahead and update.

    Now, as to your transfer question: your 7.0 standard work should transfer over to 7.4 and future versions without any problems. Their Frequently Ask Questions [FAQS] is really quite good for answering questions like this. http://www.legacyfamilytree.com/Frequent.asp
