I've have some help on this, but nothing really got to the bottom of how or why "n/a" gets inserted into some of the event addresses when I do a GEDCOM import, and whether there is anything I can do about it, before, during or after the import.
As I said in a different message, it makes we wonder (and worry) whether there were any other unwanted changes to my data when I imported it. Can anyone help further, please?
