GEDCOM Utility program for FAMILY TIES

FAMILY TIES, as a DOS based program, has come to the end of it's useful life.


GEDCOM export utility: Family Ties users can now export their data to a GEDCOM formatted file. This can be used to transfer data to other genealogy programs. Download the file FGEDCOM3.EXE to a temp sub directory, run it to extract the GEDCOM program files, and read the file GEDCOM.TXT. (This is Version 3 - Y2K fix to FGEDCOM2.EXE)

This utility REQUIRES a user registration code - unregistered users should register and obtain their own user code. GEDCOM.TXT explains what to do if you do not have a user code.


I have obtained a copy of a Windows based genealogy program called LEGACY. This has 99% of the ideas I had developed for the next major rewrite of FAMILY TIES and so I am recommending that users of FAMILY TIES take a serious look at this program. LEGACY follows the same methods of adding individuals as FT and has all the bells and whistles you could ever need. A FREE copy of LEGACY can be downloaded below.. It installs without any problems (Uninstall provided) and you have full functionality. You can also import a GEDCOM file and everything works.

LEGACY is one of the FINEST genealogy programs I have seen. It is great for the novice (both computer and genealogy wise) but has all the sophistication that an expert would expect.
