Re: [LegacyUG] Renumbering RINs and MRINs

If I understand what you are trying to do, you would like each section of the family to have RIN numbers within some range, say Name1 from 10,000 to 20,000, Name2 from 20,000 to . . . . I would suggest using GEDCOMs for each section, and on import tell it where to begin the numbers. You will sti

Hi John, It's a mystery to me why you'd bother to Renumber RINs :-) - it's just a computer number to keep track of individuals and their relationships to each other. Seems to me there are many more important jobs to do in genealogy. I guess it's helpful to have key people at an easily rememb

Just want to say that I personally would never use a filing system that uses MRIN's or RIN's as the basis. The reason? Several years ago, I did (MRINs) - and then something happened, and all my MRINs got changed. Fortunately, I had on all my file folders the Surname, Firstname, so was able to

There is no way to quickly/automatically renumber all your RINs in the manner you want (closest relatives, lowest RINs). You will have to do it one RIN at a time. (To renumber RINs, click on Tools on the menu bar and select Renumber RINs.) You can export the close relatives to another file, th
