Member Since: April 2003 Posts: 85 Send Message	I have just exported my tree from genes reunited. I imported it into PAF 5 and for some reason I am RIN 246 instead of RIN1. !!! Does anyone know why this has happened and can I change it? Thanks Joyce

	This is how you change it: Tools - Preferences - File. Then where it says 'RIN of Home Person on File Open' click on 'Use' and 'Search' and choose the person you want to be the home person from the Individual List.
