Member Since: July 2003 Posts: 48 Send Message	Help please. I have my ancestry tree built up on PAF 5 downloaded from Family Search. Through my research I have found a third cousin in Australia and we wish to exchange information. He has sent me info which I have managed to import by opening a new Gedcom PAF file. Can I fathom out how to export info to him??? NO. Does anyone know if it can be done or will I have to redo all my tree by creating a Gedcom file. I'm all mixed up about it!!!!!!!!
