The simplest way is to probably print a custom list. Enter the select screen and select all. Then deselect all related. You will then have to define the fields that you want printed in the list. In my 6800 or so, that leaves me with 146 individuals. Bill > 1. How do I print a list of individuals or families that are NOT > linked to the "home person" or pedigres of the current file?

You might be able to do it with a different print selection and select the individuals in the same way. Bill

Another option is to use a program such a GENViewer (www.mudcreeksoftware.com) which reads GEDCOMs, PAF 3-5 files, TMG 4, 5, 6 (The Master Genealogist) files, Family Tree Maker files, Legacy 3-6 files and RootsMagic files. It will show what they term "islands", which are the people or family groups not connected to the main line. Those clusters can be individualy exported to GEDCOM.
