Migrating from another software
You already have a genealogy
created with another software and just decided
to start using Ancestris.
The migration takes two steps:
- 1/ Preparation: from your previous software, you must
export your data to a file in Gedcom format (extention
.ged).
Every good software allows this operation. Should you find
any problems (mostly due to non-compliance with the Gedcom
standard) see the next chapter Identified problems during
import.
- 2/ Import you data to Ancestris:
- From menu "File/Open", choose you xxxx.ged file;
- select it and click OK.
Now, before anything else, you should check the
Order of
jurisdictions.
