Mabel, some people have large trees because when others open their trees to them they just copy everything. |

This drives me nuts too. But Search does work and you just have to go up and down from where the hot match was to find the relatives. I like to look at a whole tree because many who are related on one line turn out to be related on another or two. My tree has over 6600 individuals and I know others can't open. I have almost another 5,000 more already for the next time I download. |

I have this problem too! I've got a 5th cousin in America and he's got 11,000 people in his tree, not all of which I need to look at. |

I don't have too many problems, as a rule, but then i never bother with the full view, unless the tree only has a couple of dozen names in it. |

you can have a bit of fun when someone wants to nick your tree by putting in a pile of fictitious names, such as Donald Duck and Minnie Mouse!!!! although perhaps there are people called Donald Duck and Minnie Mouse, in which case, I apologise!! |

Good idea, A of GG. Perhaps I will put Attilla Hun and Adolph Hitler and Robert Mugabe into my tree. |

Or in the notes about myself put 'also known as Hujen the cannibal who eats people who add to their tree names of people who are not really related to themselves. |
