>I was a PAF user and have made my notes into PAF with the ! before each >TAG. The PAF file has 14097 RINs and 5097 MRINs. By using CFT I start with >a new file so my question to you is how can I change the NOTES from PAF to >the regular GEDCOM TAG for use in CFT without changing the complete GEDCOM >file by hand. What was the ! supposed to be for? All Notes (even if it has a !) should get imported to CFT-Win notes. Perhaps a snip (few lines) from your GED file posted here may help me better understand.
