Just wondering if I am doing this correctly.  When GenoPro asks for a new place name, you give it a "name" you recognize and then fill in all the details ... city, county, state, etc.  The problem is when you output it to a GED file it prints something like the following:

2 PLAC Fayette, MO (Fayette, Howard, Missouri, USA)

Importing this into another program (Legacy for instance), is problematic.  It doesn't recognize all the extra stuff.  I would have thought in the GED file the internal name (in this case "Fayette, MO") would have been left out so you would get the easily interpretable "Fayette, Howard, Missouri, USA".

Am I doing this wrong?

Thanks!

I have the same problem when exporting to a Gedcom file: all places appear double.

This is because I put the place name the same as the City and Country (E.G. "London, UK" both as place name and also for the City and Country settings).

I don't want to have it double as this causes problems when importing to other software.

I can't leave the place name empty either, so how do I get the place just once.

I suggest maybe to change the Gedcom export to only export the place name without the City and Country settings.

Please help Unsure
