<<snipped>> That problem should be reported to Ancestry because they are misinterpreting the GEDCOM according to its specification. The 'Y' after the DEAT tag is nothing to do with the PLAC or ADDR subordinate tags. <<snipped>> As I recollect, it was reported to Ancestry - though I am a lot rusty on where and when it popped up. As I don't have any such records - well, I don't *think* I have any! - I can't check its current state or provide a specific instance for programmers to work with. However, since Ancestry's adherence to the GEDCOM spec'n is a case of "It fits where it touches", I suspect any fix would simply go into a large pending tray. Nor are they any different from the majority of software suppliers... Adrian
