They do not have to be duplicate, unless you meant duplicated after the import. Example: Mary has one set of unknown parents and a brother John you send the file with this family to another researcher for work. They amend the file and return it to you You import the file into your Master file and do an Intellimerge After the Intellimerge is finished Mary and John now have two sets of parents, both are unknown.
I have not experimented but my feeling is that if you do not correct this duplication and send the file out again. When you do another merge after the file is returned Mary and John will end up with 4 sets of parents.
