    1. Re: [FreeHelp] How do you load?

    3. Hi Norman, > How do you load the material you want to share onto the page where it will be viewed? I have 8 different files of Kincaid material I want to load to my webpage. How do I get it there? What sort of files are you meaning? Word documents, spreadsheets, .PDF's, ... ? What sort of file and what is in it may determine how you share it. Whether you put a link to the file in a web page, and then upload the file along with the web page (like I have done with the membership form PDF at http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~wendyh65/WaipuIGG.htm), or transfer the information to a web page for display, or something else. With a word processor or spreadsheet file, I personally wouldn't upload the file - that's my choice, but not the only option. If I wanted to display their contents as they appear to me when I open the files, I'd convert them to a PDF file - OpenOffice.org will do this quickly and easily, and the program is free. If you have GEDCOM files, you should load those at WorldConnect, not in your freepages - unless you convert them to web pages first (Legacy will do that, as will other genealogy programs, I'm sure). Hope this gives you something to think about. :-) Kind Regards, Wendy Howard *** Please reply to the list *** -- Kaiwaka, Northland, New Zealand http://freepages.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~wendyh65/ <http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/%7Ewendyh65/>
