From separate branchess within my family tree I have two individuals who are one
and the same. How do I link/merge these two records so that the branches become
fully joined? I have read, and used, the Merge/Compare Dialog but this seems to
deal with merging Files rather than individual records. Help please?

ID:163

Currently there is no direct merge.

The best way around the problem is to select the most detailed of the two people and use the change link function to point the parents and children at a single person.

Where is the change link option? I can only find the remove link or unlink feature.

On the records window or the All tab on the Properties dialog, right click on the family you want to change, eg
Parents Family Fred Bloggs and Mary Smith
Right Click on where it says Fred Bloggs. A small menu with unlink and replace link with will appear.
