− | Can some one explain what it exactly mean to "merge" two people? Thanks. --[[User:JoelM|JoelM]] 19:47, 25 May 2007 (EDT)

− | Sometimes, during your genealogical search, you will find some duplicate person (double input or importation of another data). GRAMPS helps you to merge it, by generating one person with selected data.

− | I think JoeM wants to know how to merge two people (as I did when I found this). The process is similar to [[Merging Places]]
| |
− |
| |
− | The process is to:
| |
− |
| |
− | 1. Switch to the People View.
| |
− | 2. Select the first Person by clicking on it.
| |
− | 3. Select the second Person by holding down the Control key while clicking on it. This will select two places.
| |
− | 4. Select 'Fast Merge' or the 'Compare and Perge' menu item from the Edit Menu.
| |
− |
| |
− | 2. Another way is to use the menu item:
| |
− |
| |
− | Tools->Analysis and Exploration->Database Processing->Find Possible Duplicate People
| |
− |
| |
− | When this tools finds a possible duplicated person, you can then select to compare the persons details, having compared these, you can then select the options 'Merge and Close' or 'Merge and Edit' or 'Cancel'. [[User:Dnwilson|Dnwilson]] 21:09, 25 January 2009 (UTC)
