  1. After two days of attempting to import my very large file from Legacy, I am here to ask for help. When I exported a smaller Gedcom (a few hundred people) and imported it as a gedcom it worked fine. But the larger files seem to fail, no matter what I do. I've tried just about everything I can think of. When I do the Import from Legacy, I follow the wizard, it starts the import. Then I get in the top right of the screen "gbSource() DLL Syntax error" which seems to flicker so it might be happening over and over. This at 18% on the top line and 1% on the bottom line where it says "Importing people and names". I'm going to ignore that and going to wait it out this time since I have no other options. But I fear that in the end I'm going to have some sort of error in the file? I guess I'll see in a couple hours....Maybe its nothing? When I import a larger sized gedcom it gives a variety of weird errors and doesnt import anything at all. (at least it does this almost right away, rather than a 2 hr wait) Any suggestions? It is really painful to remake the GEDCOM from Legacy, as it takes 2 hrs. I've tried a Gedcom 5.5.1 (which is what worked on the smaller file) and also a Legacy Gedcom.
  2. Importing from Legacy 8.0

    any idea when the next release version will be? When I try a GEDCOM import, I get "detecting length of gedcom lines.... "Variable "LEVEL" is not found 0 GEDIN" if I click ignore "Variable "CRI" is not found 0 GEDIN" if click ingore "Variable "TAG" is not found 0 GEDIN" if click ignore goes to the import step 3 goes to step 4....the after creating the necessary tables to 100% or so "OLE error code 0x8002000a. Out of present range. 5465 UPDTERM "========= The Master Genealogist v 8.08.0000 GEDCOM Listing File ========== Import of C:UsersKristinaDesktopmiratag9.ged Errors (*) and Warnings: Line # ----------- * 1 ERROR : Missing trailer. *************************************************************************** Note that TMG routinely ignores the following types of information during an import: Family Numbers Family Changed Date Source Changed Date *************************************************************************** The file you are reading is saved as : C:USERSKRISTINADOCUMENTSTHE MASTER GENEALOGIST V8PROJECTSMIRATAG9TRY_.LST" and a blank database. Any clues what I could do to fix that? The GEDCOM is between 300-350 MB. Today I tried to import a gedcom which contained about 150,000 people and it went thru fine. There were errors, but of the sort i would have expected (and can live with). All these gedcoms are being generated by me from the same Legacy database.
