Use the "Unlink" feature of Legacy. Bring up the daughter in Family View and write her RIN on a piece of paper. Right click, select Unlink from parents. When the unlink is accomplished, click the left arrow at the top left of the screen to bring up the parents in the Family View. Click on the wives icon and bring the correct wife into view with the correct husband showing. With the correct parents showing, click add daughter, click "Select Existing Person", a select list appears, type in the RIN in the box upper left, click select. The daughter will then show under the correct parents.

In summary: (1) Unlink daughter from existing parents, (2) get correct parents showing on Family View, and (3) add daughter from Existing (not new) persons.

Much easier to do than it sounds.

I have a child, Elizabeth, in my database as the child of Abraham and Fannie GOLD. I want to change the entry so that she appears as the child of Abraham
(same father) and Anna (second spouse of Abraham) GOLD. How do I make that
happen? Right now all I can see is that I have to completely delete
Elizabeth and re-enter all of her data.

Thanks!
