How to move two children from one mother to another

[Linda from Murton]

I have discovered that one of my clan had a second wife. I now need to move the youngest two children I have for his first wife to his second wife.

Can anyone please tell me how to do this using Family Tree Maker 2011.

Your help would be much appreciated. Thank you.

not totally positive but
1 do full backup first
2 put in marriage date for second marriage ( or fake one)
3 detach a child at a time and then reattach to second wife and run a genealogy report to see if it comes up right!!!!!
4 if this fails then ask again on here

Thank you for responding angelina. Because there were only two of them, I copied their details onto paper. Deleted them and then retyped the information to the correct mother. Got there in the end. Don't know what I would have done if there had been lots of them with their own children.
