Is it possible for me to produce my tree as a word document so I can send my tree to someone without a Gedcom. I have my tree on "Family Tree Version11" Kind regards Maurice

Hi Maurice, my brain isnt that young and Im not very technical, but if you open your FT, go to file and see "save as" you can save as say, a PAF document and then send that to your friend. Your friend will need an adobe reader to open it, that can be downloaded from: http://www(.)adobe(.)com/products/acrobat/readstep2(.)html Remember the brackets have to be removed before putting it in the address box. If you just want to print a tree, thats all you need to do, open the tree you want and then print.
