Thank you all for your comments about transferring notes. I have passed this information onto the person who requested it. And have learned myself.

If the tool bar showing edit does not show highlite the notes and use the hot key CTRL C to copy and then paste in PAF. When NFS came out I used the Copy and Paste sequence to put somenotes in NFS. --- On Wed, 6/3/09, Jorge Todeschini <jorgetodeschini@hotmail.com> wrote: > From: Jorge Todeschini <jorgetodeschini@hotmail.com> > Subject: Re: [LDS-WC] transferring notes/sources into nFS as gedcom > To: lds-ward-consultant@rootsweb.com > Date: Wednesday, June 3, 2009, 9:11 PM > Clearly, then, adding a GEDCOM and > thus introducing duplicates only for the > sake of adding sources and notes is not the best thing to > do. > > Right? > > -------------------------------------------------- > From: "Miles Meyer" <milesmeyer@gmail.com> > Sent: Wednesday, June 03, 2009 6:01 PM > To: <lds-ward-consultant@rootsweb.com> > Subject: Re: [LDS-WC] transferring notes/sources into nFS > as gedcom > > > The question was how do you add notes from your file > without adding > > the whole gedcom.
