FH is a brilliant program, but I occasionally use Family Tree Maker when (and only when!) I want to link two chosen relatives on a diagram with a coloured line, something FH doesn’t do but would be very useful. So I load my FH GEDCOM file (called Hawkins1) into FTM and get my coloured line. Just lately I have noticed that my Hawkins1 GEDCOM file in FamilyHistorianProjects /Hawkins1/Hawkins1.fh_data/ is described as an “FTW GEDCOM File” (FTW is a Family Tree Maker nomenclature). I noticed this but didn’t think it mattered. And it didn’t, at first. The point of this rather lengthy description is this: FH works perfectly, but when I uploaded the FTW GEDCOM FILE to ancestry.co.uk I realised it’s out of date, lacking the latest additions (I haven’t used FTM for a while). FH evidently isn’t using it. So where is my FH GEDCOM file? The FH program finds it every time, but where has it gone? Windows Explorer can’t find it. Is there any way I can get FH to tell me where it’s saving it? Regards Dennis Hawkins
