When adding a spouse or child the dialogue box asks for either a new entry or an existing link. I have never used the existing link option, is there any way for that choice to not be displayed when adding children or spouses? I'm basically looking to eliminate a mouse click.
Thanks!!

I cannot tell you how to eliminate this option but in the future you may wish to use the 'existing link' option if you ever need to link up a person who is already in your file.

Taken from Hints and tips:
press and hold [ALT] while dragging to add a person, adds a person without any dialogue box being opened.
You then have to remember to choose the sex of course.

The [ALT] key method applies to adding Individuals via a Diagram, but not via the Property Box.
