I am updating Ellen season 1. I updated the child profiles and forgot to add the new data to the parent.

It is a pain to have to drag each name up through all the dividers. Is there an easier way to add this new data?

Please give very specific guidelines because most computer stuff makes my head spin. Thank you!

You do realize you can open the child profile, right click on the cast (or crew) and select Copy? Then open the Parent and select Paste All (if the first child disc) or Paste and Append (for the second thru last children).

Still a bit of tedium (open Child, open Parent, open child...) but it isn't name by name at least.

There are slightly faster ways than this but they would involve even more "computer stuff" so maybe we shouldn't go there.

Hope this helps.

Bad movie? You're soaking in it!

Open the child profiles and go to the cast list. Rigth-click on it and copy the data

Open a text editor like Notepad.

Paste the data into it.

Copy the second profile and paste it under it.

then it looks like this:

Now remove the parts bolded by me so that it becomes one list.

This you can paste into the parent profile.

Do the same with crew.

Edith says this is the way Tweeter meant with "more computer stuff".

You can do it his way of course.

Please give very specific guidelines because most computer stuff makes my head spin. Thank you!

The way I do it is to Copy/Paste the Cast/Crew information from Disc 1 (say Episodes 1-8 or whatever) to the Parent. Then go into each other profile and 'Copy and Append' the next information to the bottom of the list on the Parent. So the Disc 2 (say Episodes 9-15) information for the Cast is pasted and 'Appended' to the end of the Cast of Episode 8. I then do the same for the Crew on Disc 2.

And so on with Disc 3 etc.

Edit: I've just realised that this is pretty much what Tweeter was suggesting only I've made it more complicated. Or simpler. Depending on your point of view.

Yep. That's the "computer stuff". And i have done it that way when there are a lot of children to merge. Now i use Goodguy's CreditEditor (which i don't believe is publicly available anymore, sadly)

Bad movie? You're soaking in it!

I tried your way first Karsten because I know how to cut and paste but I couldn't do it - I really am bad at this stuff.

So I thought I'd give tweeter and GreyHulk's suggestion a try...

How did I not notice that part before?!? Or, more important, why didn't I ask before...and save myself tons of extra work?

Thank you so much! Greenines all around.

A much easier, non-computer way is to highlight the name you're about to add and drag it over to the exact spot it needs to be in. Then the roles or job screen will pop up, you click what needs to clicked, and BOOM!, the new cast or crew are right where they need to be without dragging them through all the other episodes.
I wish I had known this before I did the Tales from the Crypt series.

Yup. You just have to be careful not to let your selection slip up or down before you get it far enough to the right; it can be touchy.
