Re: [LegacyUG] MRIN's: Two MRIN's one marriage.
Success Thanks I systematically unlinked each child from the parents of MRIN #265 then found the now parentless children and added parents using MRIN #47. Then I unlinked the #265 marriage. It seems so obvious now but for some reason I couldn't get it together until now. Thanks for the input.

Re: [LegacyUG] Photo Naming Tip
Morris, Although it might be regarded by some as overkill, to be absolutely safe, I would not recommend using any characters, including spaces, except alpha-numeric, hyphens and underscores in file names. The problem is that html gives a special interpretation to a number of characters, or the server may change them, in the case of a space it can become a “%20” which will not be recognised by a program expecting a space! One other thing to watch is using upper and lower case letters. Whilst Windows considers them to be the same html does not.
