Hi Diane, To make this a little clearer for you.
Make backups of both files Decide which is the main file Determine what is the last assigned Rin and Mrin Import using the Legacy option the second file into the main file When asked what numbers to assign, use first unassigned Rin and Mrin Merge using the manual option; keep the main file on the left Do the cut and paste when two separate notes After doing some checking that everything is there, delete the second file Good luck, Charlotte. -----Original Message----- From: RICHARD SCHULTHIES <fourpa...@verizon.net> To: LegacyUserGroup@LegacyUsers.com Sent: Wed, Feb 2, 2011 8:45 pm Subject: Re: [LegacyUG] Merging 2 files The way you keep them is, during the merging, each choice that has 2 different notes for a person, you can cut and paste all, from right to left. If you put the lower RIN on the left, the lower RIN wll be kept. Make backups before, then you can not worry if done wrong.
