Moving A Child

How do I move a child who has been connected to the wrong parent?

The child's father was married twice and I have just realised that I have connected the child to the wrong mother. I'm sure that this is probably fairly easy to do but can't find how to do it.

Step 1
Edit>Unlink from>Parents

Step 2
Link the now parentless child to the correct parents / family

Thanks for your help. The child is now with the correct mother!

Sue,

I find it is easier to link the child to the new parents rather than the parents to the child: ie display the new parents in the Focus window and click on Add Child. The select 'Link Existing Record'

(Hope that makes sense!)
