If you open "John 1's" Information Screen, then close it and create a new, unrelated person called "John 2" you can then put the cursor in each field and click Repeat to copy the information from "John 1 to John 2" as you require. You can then do any unattaching and attaching or re-attaching of each John that is necessary to link them to the correct parents. -- Jenny M Benson Legacy User Group guidelines: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/Etiquette.asp Archived messages after Nov. 21 2009: http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/ Archived messages from old mail server - before Nov. 21 2009: http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/ Online technical support: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/Help.asp Follow Legacy on Facebook (http://www.facebook.com/LegacyFamilyTree) and on our blog (http://news.LegacyFamilyTree.com).
