I have taken measures to assure that the poster doesn't do it again. Those of you who responded should have done so to me privately so as not to be also guilty of off-topic postings. (GRIN) You see, when a user responds to the List, he or she is only perpetuating what it is that we are trying to be stopped. Since I'm here, where are all you users? Is Ira's CFT so good that no one has any questions or problems any more? I have a question for all of you. Recently I received TWO supposed GEDCOM files that were in .RTF format!!!!! Have any of the rest of you had problems with GEDCOM's that you have received from users of FTM or other programs? I, for one, wish those companies wouldn't make those non-standard options available for users of their products. Most new users just aren't computer-literate enough to know not to use the non-standard formats. Regards, SgtGeorge Listowner
