I have a lot of data in Excel spreadsheet files, and want to convert them into GEDCOM files so I can import them direct into FH. Does anyone have any idea how to do this?

Convert Excel files to GEDCOM
Normally the biggest problem with going into GEDCOM from excel is the excel data does not contain any family linking.
What sort of information do you have in excel? what fields and what do you want to do with it.
You may be able to write VB scripts to output the data to a gedcom file.

What about the CSV to GEDCOM Program in the Query Store/Download section in the GEDCOM utilities bit?!
