Hi all, Thanks for your input it was much appreciated. I did move my testing forward by changing the CENS gedcom tag to RESI using a search and replace feature in my text editor. The gedcom imported with out any problems and it was large 55,000 individuals and 18,000 marriages. Now on the test platform the Census shows as a residence record with the Census as the source. Works for me.
