IMPORTANT!!

• When updating records, new people will not be
  brought into your database. If an individual has
  parents or a spouse in the IGI that you do not
  have in your database, these new individuals will
  not be imported. They are however listed in the
  source text if you do an update and can be
  researched and added later if appropriate.
