Duplicate people
If you have a person duplicated (the person has been assigned two code numbers by the program) then you will need to delete one person in order for the printouts to print correctly. Each person must be entered only once and then linked to the father, mother, spouse, and children. Let's assume that you have entered yourself twice into the computer and that you have two code numbers, 5 and 21. On the Edit screen call up number 5. Suppose it shows you with a father and mother, but no spouse and no children. Then call up number 21. Suppose it shows you with no father and no mother, but it does show your spouse and children. In this case, you should delete person number 5 who has no spouse and no children. Here is the procedure: On the Edit screen, call up number 5. Pick Delete from the top menu and then pick Delete Person to totally delete the person. Then call up your father and mother. Click on Add Child and type 21 for a child's name (this is the non-deleted you). If you are not in the correct birth order, you can Rearrange order. See Rearrange. Note, if a person has the wrong spouse, do not delete the person, just pick Delete Link to Spouse. If a child is attached to the wrong parents, click the Delete Link to Child button at the bottom of the child grid.
