Hello everyone, i have been using family tree maker 2005 for the last few months and am ready to transfer my tree onto genes but when i try to export the file it says that the function is not available on starter edition, please upgrade now. Is there really no way i can load my tree onto this site without re-imputting all the info. Update: many thanks to all who replied, a huge thank you to Jim for all your help. I am now going to upgrade. Thanks again. Chris x

If the export option is not available then I'm afraid not. Ron www.genealogyprinters*com

The starter edition only has the basic functions available - and exporting to a gedcom file is not one of them I am afraid. You will need to update your FTM programme to the full version.

Why dont you upgrade anyway, its not that expensive and you will have so many more functions you can use. Have a google for the best price at the moment.

I upgraded mine from the starter edition online and it only cost me about a tenner. Well worth it, loads more reports and everything. Sam x
