I was told that ver. 8 was in the pipeline and it wouldn't be long before it arrived.... Best regards eåpaikin

I have reinstalled my computer (Windows XP - IE 7 - Service Pack 3) and when I reinstalled TMG 7 a dialogue box (Windows File Protection) appeared telling me that files in windows had been changed to unknown versions which will destabilize the system. Now I have "rolled back" to before reinstalling TMG 7 and the problem was - naturally - solved, however, how can I reinstall TMG without this problem reoccurring?

Well, that didn't work either!!!!!! I am trying to enter a birth year for ID 16437 "Merle von Halle" and when I have entered the information in the dialogue box and click OK (or F9) a dialogue box pops up telling me that "The age (-68) of Cecilie von Halle (5970) does not meet the expected minimum age for .... Proceed anyway?" Now, the question is: Is almost 10 years work wasted? Words cannot express my frustration and anger! I have adviced everyone asking to use TMG. But that I deeply regret and hope that they didn't take my advice. Elsebeth Paikin President of JGS-Denmark

I updated to 6.07.000 when I received the offer with the TMG Newsletter. I sorely regret that. Ever since then mysterious things keep happening and it keeps stalling in the middle of a session, so that I loose all that I have done in the last session. I have tried to backup every 15 minutes, but it still means a lot of extra work! Just one example of the many problems (I can't list them all): I try to enter a "name var" and everything looks right until I click "OK" - then it appears that another - totally unrelalted person (both genealogically and in time!9 has been given the "aka" name! I sincerely hope that there will soon be a bugfix! I am trying to finish a project for a museum, and had promised to deliver it in January 2006. Now that is not possible, because I have realised that sometimes the crashes cause more to be lost, so now I have to check all the some 40.000 persons! I am very, very frustrated! Please let me know when a bug-fix wil be released! Elsebeth Paikin Copenhagen elsebeth@paikin.dk

I use both! I have for many years used TMG as well as a program Web2Excel <http://erosenbaum.netfirms.com/> which converts a GedCom-file to a csv-file that can easily be imported into Excel. I could not do without either. Best regards Elsebeth
