Jane, Yes, with any external GEDCOM, Jane. You would need to import the Gedcom and then use the drag and drop for the bits which you require. I use this technique when I only wish to import bits and pieces from a download, otherwise I use the Merge process.

I will check into the Split Screen Option and take it from there. You were correct about the point of my question. Can it also be done from a gedcom that we import from - say - Rootsweb?

I take it that you have two Legacy databases on your PC and want to know if you can transfer families from one to the other. If that is so, then you need to use the Split Screen Option and then drag and drop.

Can I copy persons between family files/data bases? For example, can one copy (or import, if that is different) from a focus group that would consist of a person and their descendants? Jane S.
