FH Gedcom export

Post by Guest » 06 Oct 2005 03:25

Hi,

I have received a gedcom file from a friend that was created using FH. But when I imported into my software (Legacy) I was given a message
that states unrecognised items:
_ASID
_FILE
_WEB
Can anyone please tell me what these tags represent and what is the best way to deal with them?

Also, during transfer I have a note inserted into marriage notes for
several marriages in the format CHAN: NOTE 21:57:15
Does anyone recognise what this might mean?

Thanks for your help,
Paul

The _ASID and _FILE are in the multimedia links.

Not sure about _WEB, but I suspect its web site.

FH has advanced media handling which Legacy does not have, if you get your friend to run the file through the FH Converter it will remove the advanced media links and replace them with the simple ones legacy can use, as well as creating 'chopped' up file copies for the photos etc.
