Would it not work if one were to start a new file for her and then, when her data is more complete, "merge" her into your database? (having backed it up first) (:>)

Jane,
There is no reason why you can't have her as an unlinked individual, with all her own data, within your main database. She will show in the name list, and can be linked when you find a connection but will generally not show in any other lists or reports.

If you go to View > Trees > Refresh that you may find you already have some floating individuals.

I have a prospect for the wife of an ancestor. I am 95% sure that she is the right one,but not 100%. I should like to have a mini-data base of just this couple and their ancestors and descendants to use for research purposes while I try to verify their relationship.

I don't want to add her to my main data base, since I don't have her documented, but I need her in my dummy data base so I can see the broader picture and how she fits in.

Alternatively, I could put her in the main db, but in some special way (color type, different font?) or some such designation. Would that work better? Then I wouldn't have to re-type all her facts in when I verify her.

Can anyone suggest how I might do this?
