Alyson Do you mean that you have exported your tree from GR to your email?
If so you will not be able to open it unless you have software such as Family Tree Maker loaded onto you home computer.

I hope you like it, I ve been so pleased with the printing and all the other bits and pieces The only error is I have one relative born in Essex who for some reason is pinned on top of a scottish mountain!!

Have fun!
