    1. [RMagic] Importing

    3. One more question, if you please. I've upgraded to RM7. I have imported RM3 databases into a brand new database to replace the old. 1. I have several RM5 databases. When open one with RM7, it advises me on the changes it will make to upgrade to RM7. I'm OK with that. 2. My Question: If I have three (for example) databases in RM5 format; let's say Smith1, Smith2, and Smith3. I want to open Smith1 with RM7 and let it convert. Then, I want to import the data from Smith2 and Smith3 into it so I have a master Smith database. But, when I go to 'import" it only gives me the option of importing RM1 to RM3. How do I import RM5 into an existing RM7? . Jim Belanger NH State Representative Hollis, NH www.belangers.us

    3. Jim - I think I'm correct in addition to Bruce's explanation, that IF you want to merge the 3 files, you must either find a common ancestor in each file with whom you can "drag & drop" merger of everyone in the database OR create a gedcom to import into the one database. Bruce will correct me if I'm wrong. Love to all, Lou Louis E.
