Split Tree Helper amp; Retaining Multimedia in V4

Post by ptl12 » 22 Sep 2010 22:35

I am having problems splitting my tree. It works fine, but I have lost all my multimedia photos in the new GEDCOM file.

I made a copy of my main file, then used SPLIT TREE HELPER with the defaults, and the option DO NOT DELETE INDIVIDUALS identified by query 'all relations', specifying my partner as the starting individual.  The default selection 'DO NOT DELETE MULTIMEDIA' was taken.

The tree was split perfectly into a new GEDCOM file, but the new file contained no MULTIMEDIA records (in my case, photos of the individuals).

Help please.  I am clearly doing something wrong.

Thanks

Tim

Can you confirm there are no records, rather than 'broken' records.

Tim,
I wonder if you might find my response on this thread helpful:

Of course Jane may well have a better suggestion.
