Thomas,
Two choices:
(1) Use the merge feature to combine the same individuals in both
or
(2)Delete all the Higton prior to the import:
Search->Find...
Select Detailed Tab
Look for whom? Individual
Where to look: Last Name
How to look: Equal To
What to look for: Higton
Toggle Clear List before this search
Click Create List
In Search List window:
click Options->Advanced Deleting...
In the Advanced deleting window select Delete all Individuals in teh current Search
List
Click Apply.

Hello
Thankyou for the replies on this one. But the problem is I have 2 Legacy
files 1 contains some Higtons and all my Robinson and the other contain
Higton only but more of them.

the new file
Any idea.

Thomas,
Use File->Import From... to import your data. Once imported, go through the
merge process (if required) and then simply link Margaret to the correct
Robinson and you will have your connections.
I would backup your original database prior to the import, in case any thing
goes wrong.

Hello
I have to receive a large Higton file. I have a Margaret Higton who married
a Robinson and I would like to join a Robinson tree to the Higton tree at
this point.
Is it posible at this point or do I have to retype everything again(
including all the notes)
Thankyou
Thomas
