w945106 0 Report post Posted January 7, 2007 How do I fully append 100 individuals from someones's FTW database? 1. I imported the FTW into a new TMG dataset and cited the source globally, cleaned up things a bit, etc. 2. I merged that dataset (Berwick) with my dataset (Miller). But the individuals all had numbers starting with "2: " and I couldn't quote a source in the the Miller data from the Berwick dataset. 3. I used the dataset manager to Merge again and now the numbers are all "1: " and I can site my sources like normal. But I still see that the second dataset exists in the dataset manager. Why won't it just append the people and go away? See screenshot at http://web.tampabay.rr.com/millerj/screenshot.jpg Wallrich Muller and descendents were imported, cited source globally, and appended as "candidate".

Terry Reigel 0 Report post Posted January 7, 2007 I think you will find my article on Merging Projects and Data Sets explains what is happening, and what you need to do to finish the process. I suspect you actually imported the FTW database into a new Project, not into a new Data Set. If you aren't clear on the difference my article on that subject (link in second paragraph of the above article) may help. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
