It's only necessary to check the not living box on the individual screen
with nothing in the date or place of death. On WorldConnect at
rootsweb.com, the date of death then has a Y from the gedcom export. As
mentioned previously, the not living button can be set globally, or it can
be set by searching and marking each appropriate person.

It is an annoyance to visitors to see the word "Living" in an
online tree, when it is so obvious the person couldn't possibly
be as stated. It looks like sloppy work, even when one knows
(from personal experience) how that happened, and that it was
not the doing or intent of the author. I applaud your efforts to
perfect the output on RootsWeb, and hope you will be personally
pleased with the outcome as well. -- Alice

Alice,
Ancestry gets a lot of information from RootsWeb. I find that my data
has appeared there without my consent. I believe it's a condition of
placing your file on RootsWeb.
And then you will get correspondence from cousins that you did not know you
had. For me, that is good.
So I'm sure that if it works to place
"deceased" in your files, and they work on Ancestry, it should work on
RootsWeb. I have seen data marked as "deceased" on RootsWeb.
