It's me again

We have a microsoft computer. I use Ancestry.com. I have also downloaded the PAF from LDS site but don't use it.
I don't think I have a program for GED's. Does that make sense to you :oops:
I think I may need to purchase a GED program :?:
I told you I :!: was remedial

Cheers Kay

Hi Kay,

You can import a GED file into PAF.

Open PAF, create a new file. When the screen comes up to enter a new person, click cancel and click on File, Import and it will aske yout to identify which GED file you want to import.

Job done.

Mary's right Kay....you can do it with what you currently have in your computer! No need to go buy something. I've not used the PAF program but have heard that it is quite straightforward. Give it a go and let us know how you're making out......and DO NOT get frustrated or I'll get out the wet noodle again :wink:

Best wishes
Jean
