In previous Legacy versions, the Back button had a drop-down that opened the History List that allowed you to navigate to any of the most recent people you’ve worked on, without having to click the Back button a dozen times.

At first glance, Legacy 8 did not seem to have this feature any longer, as there was no drop-down for the Back button.  I did, however, find the feature and had to manually add it to the My Toolbar toolbar.  To do this, make sure you are in the My Toolbar toolbar, then click on the little box with the arrow in the lower-right-hand corner of the toolbar.

Locate the History List button in the “Available Toolbar Buttons” section.

Click the icon and drag it to the position where you want it in the toolbar.

I also chose to add Master Sources, Master Locations, To-Do List, and Relationship Calculator to My Toolbar for easy access.
