I'm a genealogist and an error log from my program tells me there is an
error in line 33801 of a GEDCOM that I recently imported.

The problem is that the GEDCOM doesn't have line numbers as it is a text
document. I've put it into Libre and turned on line numbering but see no
way to go directly to a specific line number. The only way I see to get to
a line number is to scroll thru the document.



Since a gedcom is a straightforward text file, download the fee NoteTab Lite text editor. Once it is installed, open your gedcom, hit ctrl-shift-l, enter 33801 and ENTER. You are trying to drive a tack with a sledgehammer. NoteTab is an excellent tack hammer.
