I look forward to using Legacy again. I found FTM somewhat lacking in flexibility. Below is the rest of the response from Pegi. Would you please look it over and let me know if I should follow her instructions. They look reasonable to me, but I'm not the expert. Thanks again. - Rose Legacy can import GEDCOM files. You can export a GEDCOM from Family Tree Maker by following these instructions: . Family Tree Maker 1. From the File menu: If you are using FTM, version 11 or earlier, select Copy/Export Family File. If you are using FTM 2005 or 2006, select Export File > Entire File. 2. Click the Save as type drop-down list and select GEDCOM. 3. In the File name field, type a name for the GEDCOM file. It must have the extension .GED. 4. In the Save in field, select the drive and folder where you want to place your file. 5. Click Save and Family Tree Maker displays the Export to GEDCOM dialog box. 6. Make your selections from the dialog box as follows -- Destination: FTW, Version: 5.5, Character set: ANSEL, check the Abbreviate tags box. 7. Click the OK button and the GEDCOM file will be created.
