Question: I wonder how ya'll keep your files. Do you have each family in a separate file, or do you have just one big file? The reason I've never merged them together is because if I share a GED Com file, it would include too many other families of no interest and probably be too large to email. ~~~~~~~~~~ Teresa I use FTM 11.0, and I keep all my info in one large file. I started out with seperate files, but soon found a lot of the same people in several files, so, decided to merge them into one. It is great fun seeing how closely knit the families of SE Georgia are. (I share many common ancestors with my husband.) You can easily e-mail genealogy reports of as many generations as you want. BUT, I highly recommend you make a back-up copy of each file BEFORE you merge anything. You may end up with several 'duplicate individuals' but that can easily be fixed too. I am a member of the rootsweb FTM list and you may want to subscribe to it and post your question about merging files there for advice. FTM-L@ROOTSWEB.COM Sherry
