You may have to ask GR for help.

Explain the problem and they will either correct it or tell you how to do yourself

I have found them very helpful

I would suggest that you export a copy of the file before you start. Then if it does not work, you can restore and try a different approach.

Sorry if I'm being a bit thick - but I have made a mistake on my family tree and have added a daughter to a member of the family which should in fact have been their sister. To do it manually would take forever as I have many other relatives linked to this person.

I'm trying to use the change parents edit button to put it right - but can't figure out how to use it

Can anyone please advise me ? What do I do after clicking on the change parents link...?

Many thanks,
Alison
