Someone has kindly opened their tree for me,as we have a very strong connection,and said I could add them to my own tree,just the ones I want,my choice.
How do I do that?
Never done that before.
Im sure someone will know.
Thanks

Trish, first of all, look for a thread earlier on the tips board called 'how do I compare a rellie with mine?' the last post was 10th Feb. This explains how you can open a new window with the other persons tree to view them side by side.

I've found it and nudged it up for you.

Then Trish, if you look at their tree, there's a button underneath 'edit tools'. Click on this and theres a clipboard. Click on their rellie you want to copy, 'copy' onto clipboard, go onto your tree, choose the rellie you wish to update, click on 'paste'. Clipboard will hold 5 at a time then you need to empty it.
There's a thread on this bit too somewhere.
