Is there a 'fix relationship' option on GR. I'm getting in such a muddle - probably because I keep getting logged off so I enter people twice.

What are you trying to fix? GR will only let you delete a name, as long as there are no dependents, or the name is at the very top.

You will have to delete one of the entries.
EG
Bill Bloggs====Mary Smith====Mary Smith
You can only delete if there no other people connected.
Say for example you have children connected to both.
Change the one you wish to delete to Wrong Smith
Now click on each child connected to her and use the "change parent" button.

Hi SatNav, thanks for your help, my problem is ive entered John Smith=====Mary Jones twice. The first set have children and parents added but the 2nd set are just on their own. I get an error message when I try to delete the two names which are not connected to any other names. When I view my tree these two names are just floating on their own.
