Do you know who loaded it even in error? Which programme has it been loaded through or into? Can you give any more details and then maybe I or someone more knowledgeable will be able to help. Lyn x x

I don't think you can - I think you will have to ask them to do it. (And yes, it would drive me insane too!) OC

if i save a gedcom does it automatically get saved to the net or do you have to physically save it to the net. any gedcoms i have saved before havent appeared on net before, am i just lucky or dont know what im doing here,?

Hi There are only two ways I can think of. 1. Contact the person and ask for them to remove it. 2. Contact the web site provider hosting the pdf file and make a formal request that the offending pages are removed. I wish you luck Paul
