I need your help. After WO II I was an orphan. After WO II I have had foster parents. They have treated me as their own son, but did not adopt me officially. I have now the following problem. It is no problem in BK to connect both parents families to me, but if I make a gedcom and bring that to the program to the program which I use to publish my database, I see than only the connection between my foster-parents and me. For this moment I do not know in which program is the problem either BK or HUMO-gen that I use for my site. Can somebody tell me is there an official gedcom code for foster parents? With my best regards, Max van Dam Rechovot Israel http://www.maxvandam.info/

To Max Just to clarify, you are making the gedcom file and picking "Descendants of" someone, is that correct? If so, I think it will only show the parents that are in the descendant line. If you make a gedcom file with the entire database, it should show both sets of parents. I could modify it to have it include both sets of parents. When you make the gedcom file and you Select people, you do know that you can select more than one group, right? Pick Descendants of your your foster parents, then again pick Desdendants of your other parents, then pick Copy.
