Re: [LegacyUG] how to combine two files

Terry,
You can see the modified date on Family View if you hover near the 
extreme bottom right corner - you should see a small box pop up like the 
boxes that show when you hover between the main couple etc. Each of 
these hidden areas has a different function. Click the box and you get 
more detail. To see more on how to see this go to Help > Help Index and 
in the right pane choose Tips and Tricks and then General.

Hi,

I made a real bonehead move when I did a search and replace. I meant
to have only one word replaced and instead I replaced the whole
whatever (picture caption, given name, general notes) in my
entire file. Unfortunately, I did not catch on until I made at least
216 more entries. I hate to lose 4 days of work. Is there a way to
blend all the new work I did in the 4 days after my mistake with
before making the mistake?

Thanks,

Maybe you can export the work you have done. Tag the new entries and 
export them. Restore from backup, then import your new entries.


John.
