I’ve now ran a test with RM9 to copy people from database A to database B and found that it still retains the link to Ancestry Tree A. I’m using Windows 11 Home edition and I have a second monitor connected to my laptop. Steps to reproduce the problem: 1. Open RM9 2. File → Open to open Database A (linked to Ancestry Tree A) - this is displayed on laptop monitor. 3. File → Open to open Database B (linked to Ancestry Tree B) - this is displayed on 2nd monitor. 4. In Database B view Person Z. 5. Drag Person Z to laptop window, ie Database A. 6. Pop up screen “Drag and Drop” appears. 7. From this I select all Ancestors and their descendants for Person Z, generations=14, descendants=3. I also chose not to link Person Z to any existing person in Database A. 8. I click OK and 21 people are copied into Database A. 9. I then select Person Y in Database A (this one of the people I have just copied into Database A). 10. I then click “Jump to Ancestry” for Person Y and it takes me to Person Y in Ancestry tree B !! 11. I closed RM down and opened Database A in SQLite and found 21 people in the AncestryTable had an AnId that referenced Ancestry Tree B. --- _[View the full topic](https://community.rootsmagic.com/t/treeshare-issue-rootsmagic-7-9-multiple-ancestry-trees/12321)._
