Is it possible for the 'arrows' to point both ways. So that I can add the information from A to B and B to A in the same window??
The above is probably not a good example of the issue, but I think you get the idea.

Merging genealogy databases is complex. I hear what you say but I would rather leave the merge to be in one direction only. It is normal to merge into a master database.
