Hi Girls, Havin fun with this,...Not. Have found how to do the back up and its the same. Have tried match/merge and this ssemed to make things worse. I am now idividually deleting from the pin numbers. Thankfully all duplicates have a sperate no. so starting from the highest and workind down. It will take me awhile but seems to be working. Julie

If you can export your tree to a programme like family tree maker you can use the merge duplicate individual command. Anne
