Thanks Bruce - I will take it in to his wife tomorrow. Since it is in his own handwriting I think that it will be of great interest to him.Have you found anymore on Phillip - that is very intriguing. Also if you have time could you call the History Department in Salt Lake and tell them that you found on the Internet that Joseph Smith Loynd left a diary and ask them how we might go about accessing it. Thanks a million for all you are doing and have done. Sister Goodall

To the best of my knowledge there has not been any significant changes to the way the Legacy import works for years. Since it seems to have been rather a long time since you used Legacy's GEDCOM import might it not be that PHPGedView has added customised GEDCOM tags or similar? Have you looked at the GEDCOM file in Notepad to see what is going on? I do know that for years, importing a GEDCOM from FTM has been a pain - just see this list over the past year.

Then I completely stopped using it due to my switch to PhpGedView, which I have installed on my website and which I enjoy using, because it makes collaboration so simple. Legacy on the other hand, is far more convenient at entering data, checking problems, merging files, etc, etc. Earlier I had no problem at all reimporting GEDCOM produced by PhpGedView. This week I purchased Legacy and tried to import my latest GEDCOM and it does not seem to work at all. OK, I get a long list of errors (which did not surprise me, since Gedcom versions tend to vary quite a bit). Most disturbingly, family connections are broken. e.g. my parents don't show up as my parents anymore, some generations back also my wife has ancestors "missig". Mind you, the people are still in the file, but don't show up as being connected. I then imported the same Gedcom into PAF 5 and surprise, surprise: no problem at all! Everything just shows up as it should. I could also import the data from the generated PAF-file into Legacy without a problem. My question: is this a known bug in Legacy or is there anything that can be done about it? I still want to use my online-database, but intend to switch back to Legacy every once in a while to do the more difficult jobs on my computer and would like to export the changes back into PhpGedView. I will definitely not take the additional step with PAF all the time. Any suggestions from someone in this list?
