    3. I use Family Tree Maker. As for transfering your files.... You should be able to save all of your genealogical data as a generic GEDCOM file. GEDCOM is a format designed specifically for this task. Every genealogy software on the market today should be able to import the GEDCOM. Look for an EXPORT option in the FILE or TOOLS drop down menus of your software, then lok for EXPORT or SAVE AS GEDCOM. This will allow you to create the GEDCOM. Pay close attention to the path that you save to, because you will need to know it when you import into your new software. -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Monday, May 12, 2003 7:13 PM To: [email protected] Subject: [KYGARRAR] software I hope that someone can give me good advice as to what I should do regarding genealogical software. What genealogical software do you use? I have a problem now in that Sierra's Generations, which I've used for several years, has been sold and is no longer supported by the company. That, of course, means I'll need to change to something new. I had started with Reunion, which was sold to Generations, but it appears the Generations company is getting totally out of that business. I'm not sure how I can easily transfer my present data from Generations to new software and will appreciate any advice anyone can give me.
