Can somebody please explain how to use the clipboard facility. I wish to copy details from someone else's tree to which I have access and add the details to my own tree. I have looked at 'Help' but still can't do it. I can copy the name from the other persons tree into a clipboard but don't know how to paste it into mine. |

I have just been experimenting. If you copy the name of the relative manually, so that you have the little box and a pull-out notes section, you can then go into the other tree and copy and paste information in the usual way ie highlight the bit you want to copy/put your cursor in the middle of the highlighted bit/right click/click copy on drop-down menu. Then open your tree at the place where you want the notes, put your cursor in the right place/right click and choose paste from the drop-down menu. |

Thanks. I agree about not copying without checking first. I have found anomalies where I know I have the correct info because I have the birth certs etc. |
