Hi Adrian, No, I haven't gotten in touch with Richard. I've so basking in my good fortune having found a match so soon that haven't tried to make contact yet. I would appreciate any assistance you can give me. Also, I have FTM Version 7, and I didn't see any instuctions about Gedcom files, but maybe I just overlooked something. Thanks, Trent __________________________________________________________________ Switch to Netscape Internet Service.
