Hello Casey Co. friends, I have had a few people who were not able to view the gedcom as I sent it. The reason for this problem seems to be the self-extracting .exe extension I put on the file so that people would not have to search for an unzipper if they were not familar with a zipped file. The file is 12 meg unzipped so I shrunk it using pkzip. In order to use the file a user merely has to click on the file and the .exe extension expodes the file into the full size gedcom which then is opened by a family tree program such as Family Tree Maker. I am completely unfamilar with Mac so I do not understand when people say they can not use an exe file. Some people have requested I break the file into smaller pieces but today when I attempted to do this the file was readable but many connection were broken. It also adds many unknown persons to the file. After chewing on this problem for a while, I have decided that the best solution for this is to ask for people who need a smaller or a non-exe file to send a request to my personal email soon and I will respond in about a week with an attachment containing all of the seperate gedcoms. This means the files will have to be merged by the people requesting such but Ca la vie!!! I also hope that anybody who has not sent in their gedcom will please do so now. Thanks alot everybody. Merry Christmas!!!!!! Best Wishes, Larry Witt 3271 Hwy. 39 Somerset, Ky. 42503
