Member Since: January 2003 Posts: 5 Send Message	I have two identical wives for a husband, with a double set of identical children. I've tried everything to sort the mess out, but keep on being told I can't because they are linked to someone else. Any ideas? or will I have to delete the lot and start again? If we could unlink just part of a tree and delete that it would make things easier.
