When I import the gedcom of the tree I have at Ancestry.Com, the import
process tells me that there is an unidentified tag "UID". I do Not want to
import this.
I go to the Customize screen. "UID" is listed under "Unrecognized items".
I click "Create an event for this tag", entering"Ancestry UID"
I did not receive any answer from Legacy.
I haven't had tried to import since that time - just not much need.
Also it occurred to me that perhaps this was a way to keep match
Ancestry records up with ones previously downloaded - again something
I haven't really looked into since I haven't had much
Melody,
Has your issue been resolved since your exchange with Customer Support?
My understanding is that the 36 character Unique Identification Number
is designed to facilitate merges/imports for those software or websites
that support it. I found the following on another software's site:
"
Melody,
Have you tried just leaving the UID as an unrecognized item. If you do
Legacy should list the UID entries from the Ancestry GEDCOM in the error
report when the GEDCOM is imported.
If you will send me one of those Ancestry downloaded GEDCOMs privately
to [EMAIL PROTECTED] I will test
If I leave the UID as unrecognized, then won't it just go into the Notes?
In which case, then I'll have to edit all the people to pull info out of the
Notes.
