I hope the hyphen is in the right place!! Re. previous remarks              Interesting set of answers. I'll probably stick with Ancestry despite       it's quirks.       Out of interest, is it possible to upload the media as well as the GED       file from Ancestry to FMP? I have it all downloaded onto RootsMagic if       it can be done that way.              BTW Just in case anyone doesn't know, there is a very old but very       useful piece of software called Simple Family Tree which I have used       for many years. As I say it is simple but so useful for quick       references, it is still available at       https://www.portablefreeware.com/index.php?id=922              Geoff              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
