Situation
My .GED file consists of two GenoMaps. The first map traces my family and the second map traces my wife's family.
Consequently, there are a few individuals that are common to both maps and too often I update one map without remembering to update and other map with common individuals.
Question:
How do I link the common individuals in such a manner that both maps are automatically updated regardless of the map updated?

Use hyperlinks, so that there are no duplicates.
To start I suggest (not being sexist, but got to start somewhere) on your display select your wife and Move her to her own display. Right click will open a menu where you can select Move.
On this second display, assuming that the two versions are identical, delete the existing record and then link the transferred record. Again select it, right click and use Link as Parent.
Repeat for children but here use Link as Child.
If you use the Report then it is advisable to modify the family properties. Select the marriage line and open it and open the Summary tab. Click the box Make Label/Exclude From Report. This will avoid duplicates here.

Can you clarify the last bit here?
Do the husband, wife, children, and marriage link appear on both genomaps? Or the husband, children, and hyperlinked wife on his genomap, and the wife on her genomap? If you could include a picture, it would be much appreciated!
