Thanks, Julie.

It looks a bit complicated but you might be able to print it off and work through it that way. If not, send GC an email and they will send the instuctions to you. Melanie

If the offending people do have decendants you will have to go the bottom of the line and delete upwards. You should be able to save most of the tree this way. Janet
