I just imported 8 people, and did a merge. The people imported from PAF came into my Legacy file with large RIN numbers from my old PAF file. What did I do wrong? How can I change RIN's now??? **Start the year off right. Easy ways to stay in shape.

RIN and MRIN numbers are assigned in sequential order as you enter individuals and marriages in the family file. There can be no duplicate numbers because they are unique. When you import a GEDCOM file into an existing family file, the RINs and MRINs that were in the GEDCOM file renumbered, with

Erik I would use the method you plan to for recording Anton's full name, make a note about what you have done and why. Some of the Christening records (not Danish!) I've transcribed make it surprisingly difficult to work out the family name, depending on the way the original record is set out.
