Forum Master Customers FamilyTrees.GenoPro.com GenoPro version: 3.1.0.1 Last Login: 33 minutes ago Posts: 503, Visits: 3,447	I received a genogram which I exported to XML. The resulting file contains strangely formatted element identifiers. Instead of the usual "ind00001" for an individual ID, it reads "I1". The same applies to family IDs. GenoPro does not seem to have any problem with this and even after modifying the genogram it uses the same short identifier format after saving the new version and exporting it. Is there a flag somewhere that sets this format? I could not find one. Sample: <Individuals> <Individual ID="I1"> and: <PedigreeLink PedigreeLink="Parent" Family="F13" Individual="I1"/> Regards, Nand

(1) The fact that I'm processing identifiers in a numeric format has nothing to do with the merge tool but is used in a completely different project that is of no benefit to GenoPro users. (2) My basic question was: how does GenoPro differentiate between "ind00001" and "I1" without analyzing the values. The official answer seems to be that it does not differentiate them at all that it just processes them as identifier strings. I strongly doubt about this, but anyhow, so be it. (3) I never mentioned an "automatic" merge, did I? That would be suicidal. On the contrary, version 1 will actually ask you to identify a matching individual pair by specifying the identifiers of both individuals. I have to start somewhere, hence my renewed interest in identifiers. Version 2 is intended to help you find matching pairs. But that's another story and has nothing to do with this topic. Stay tuned, Nand
