Hi All, I have just that a whole branch that is in my tree does not actually belong. I now want to delete the whole branch. Please tell me how? I can see how to delete an individual but not all that person's descendents. Thanks, Paddy

To Paddy Brown Make a Backup to a USB disc and keep it safe for a while in case something goes wrong. Then Pick File, Split Database, and Create a new folder. Then if you want to keep the same BK numbers that people already have, press F3 (Function 3) on the keyboard and it will pop up a message saying it will keep the numbers for people the same. Then select everyone with Range of numbers 1 to the end. Then click De-Select option near the bottom right. Then pick Descendants of and pick the line you want to remove. It will make the number of selected people less. Then click Copy Then open the new folder that you have created and it should be everyone except for the line you de-selected. Then use that new folder (or you could Backup that new folder and then open your old regular folder and Restore over that one.)
