@michaelrichardcamit1 Please provide the name of the project you're indexing and the batch code as shown in this example U S—Enlisted and Officer Muster Rolls and Rosters, 1916–1939 [Part R] [XXXX-XXX] for the best answer. The screen shot you provided is too small to read and does not tell us which of several projects you could be working on Please hold the batch until you receive an answer

Hi Michael,
Unless I'm missing something, this is just the normal way that indexing works.
When you select a batch, there are a pre-set number of entries - presumably based on the whole project, and in this case, 16. If you have more entries than lines, you can add addition lines, and if there are fewer, as in your case, you can delete the unwanted ones.
There is a horizontal display of icons just above the blue box where it says image 1of 1. The seventh from the left shows a box and a plus icon, click on this if you ever need more lines. Next to this is a waste bin (trash can), which can be used to delete lines. When you click on it, a dialogue box opens and you can select either the current entry or all blank entries. In this case, you would select all blank entries, which would leave you just the one that you need.
If you only needed say, 6 entries, you could either delete the surplus ones one by one, or delete all blank records and then add an additional 5, making six in all.
I have attached a Knowledge Article that probably explains this better then my effort.
Hope this help, and thanks for your hard work.
Kind regards,
Barry
