How do I delete/remove entire family tree
« on: May 28, 2019, 05:49:14 »
Hello,
I imported a gedcom file of my family tree into Ancestris but then realised it was an outdated .ged file and that I have a more up to date .ged file to use. I would like to remove completely the old gedcom but I don't know how. When I click on 'delete' in Gedcom Explorer it only deletes an individual. Can someone tell me how I can delete/remove the entire imported family tree from Ancestris, so that I can start anew please?

Hi,

Ancestris doesn't have any database.
You're using a file like in Microsoft Word.
So you have to close the file (use the red cross in the toolbar), then open or convert (i.e import) the correct file.

OK, I understand. Thank you for that information.
