Duplicate Repository

Post by PyreneesPirate » 30 Dec 2018 07:47

Hello All,

Merry Christmas and a Happy and Prosperous New Year to everyone on the forum.

I was wondering if somebody could help me please?

Somehow, I have managed to accumulate two identical named Repositories! I wish to combine the smallest repository with the largest repository. Is there an easy way of doing this?

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks
PP

Yes, in the Records Window on the Repositories tab, select the larger one.
Use Edit > Merge/Compare Records and select the smaller Repository to merge.
In the Merge Records dialogue ensure all the desired fields are being kept or added.

All links from Source records to both Repositories will be adjusted to link to the merged Repository.
