Very quick query im sure,.........am I correct in thinking that you can only export your tree on here as a GEDCOM file?.....once exported how do I open it? do I need certain software? |

It's a data file - in a fairly standardised format. If you are merely curious about what it contains, then if using Windows, right click the filename and Open with Notepad. It can be copied into Word/Exel/Etc - but why would you want to do that? |

by exporting the file into Excel it is possible to very easily manipulate the data eg list all people named Smith Lincs 1740-1820 and so on and so forth. |
