Hi, I have one family file with 15,000 people (file A). I created a new file (with all the same individuals) (file B) to do a special project but then forgot to return to my original file A. In the meantime I have imput about 700 new individuals into file B. I want to merge file B back into file A. I did this and then did intellishare and then did automerge. The automerge began running and it had 2,994,340 possible files to review. I let it run and it took in excess of 12 hours and then it returned to the files for me to go through to find all of the individuals that still need to be reviewed. (I saved the merge file and compared the file sizes. There were over 17,000 people that in the new file) Thinking this is nuts and would take all week. I undid the merge and started again with file A and B. Is there anyway to merge these files that wont take a huge amount of time? Yes, the files are the same other than adding the new individuals and adding some ssdi info to some of the existing files. The reason I want to revert to file A is that in file A I have extensively used the tags and do not want to lose them (months of work). In file B I deleted all of the tags to do my project. Any advice would be welcome, Thanks, Angela
