When you import all the info and sources are brought in. The option to assign an autosource allows you to say where the data came from. It adds an extra source to the data. I used to ignore this when I imported and only later came to realise how important it was to identify where the data came from. I am now having to go back and retrospectively add the information, a mammoth task :(.

Set to import to your file with s starting RIN greater than the last in your file. I guess your husband is in both files so you will need to merge him into the husband in your current file and ant other duplicates. ***Back-up your files*** Ron Ferguson _____________________________________________________________________ *New* Insert Pictures Into your Web Pages - Blogs http://www.fergys.co.uk View the Grimshaw Family Tree at: http://www.fergys.co.uk/Grimshaw/ For The Fergusons of N.W.
