When creating the gedcom have you tried"deselect people", then either "Range of Numbers" then enter each BK# individually. I just tried it and it did delete the 2 #s I entered. I.E: Range of Numbers" start with 4, end with 4 and it deleted it, then did the same with #5 and both were deleted.

At present with BK7 there doesn't seem to be a system where I can specifically mark individuals as Private (i.e. do not send details about this person to the GEDCOM file but allow for recordkeeping of details for this person to be maintained in the BK program like you would for any other no matter how many times you export excluded information, do reports or group sheets on, etc.) The only workaround I can see for this at present is to keep 2 databases of the information you want to GEDCOM export and physically change the individual names to read Private and remove any events/facts that will display about each ! > individual in one database and not in the other and always use the excluded database to send GEDCOM exports from. This is a kind of boggy approach to handling this I believe. I would gladly publish the details in BK if there was a system that would cater better for handling situations like that on the web but at the moment there's not. It seems that I have to make improvisations in BK to adjust and convert them over as, for now, it still seems worthwhile going to other software to publish. > > Does John have a bandaid yet to assist with sorting out this dilemma or is work in this area still some time away? I am still finding it frustrating as you can probably pick up in this message! Do other readers have any suggestions for me dealing with this better? Hoping that there is a process out there that will in time make this procedure a lot easier.
