One big tip! Have one family file that is your master. Once that is cleaned up and you have your data input formatted to your standards, then whenever you get new information via a GEDCOM or other source. Do not import it directly into your master file! Import it into a new file then you can clean that file up (ie format locations, merge duplicates, delete those you do not want) then when it is cleaned up then you can import the actual people you want to add to your file. There is a lot of help info on this in the help files. Look under splitting family file and split screen.
