I finally found the time to transfer my updated Family Tree Maker family file to my mini from my laptop which I had not updated since we set up the computer in 1911. In transferring the info, the file on the mini said it could not open and copy because there was a file open. I do not know what they are talking about as there is no file open as far as I am concerned so that is my first problem. In the meantime, it let me open and copy and called the new file by same name No. 2 So now I have 2 FTW family files the old one without the updated info and the new one with all the new info I had input into my laptop and they are both now on my mini. I know this occupies a lot of space to have 2 and am considering the deleting first one and keeping the 2nd but am a little hesitant to do so. I cannot figure out what they mean that there is a "file open" on the first one when we tried to open and replace (1) instead of open and copy (2). Hope you understand all of this.

Second, I did my grandson in law's genealogy before he married my granddaughter in a FTW separate file. Now I would like to merge the two files. I made sure his name and my granddaughter's name are exactly the same in both files. How do I go about merging these two FTW files?

Thank you.
