I exported it via gedcon to my email address, but cannot find it when I saved it as the computer says it doesnt recognise it!!. Ideally I want to print the actual tree , in case my comp, goes down and I lose it!! Thanks |

Hi Jacqueline. If you have exported your file from GR, it will be in GEDCOM format - that needs a family tree program to read and format it for the printer. If you do not have one, you have two options: - on GR, display your tree and then select the TREE VIEWER at the top. That will draw your tree and give you the option to print it. The alternative is to find somewhere else to store it or soembody else who has a program and can print it for you. If I can help with this, please send a PM and I can let you know my email address.

I've nudged a thread about free family tree software which you can download to your computer. The PAF one will print reports. Heather |
