I have attached a zip with the updated Report skin for export to gedcom.  Hopefully I can get it included in the GenoPro download soon.

But for now just download and unzip in place of the existing {EN} Export to Gedcom folder below your report skins folder. 

You can find the location of your report skins folder via the Options tab of the GenoPro Tools/Generate Report dialogue.

The default configuration options should provide the best Gedcom file for data interchange.

After a few successful exports of a gedcom file, received an error message as follows:

Generating report to 'C:\Users\..\Documents\GenoPro Reports\gedcom\'
Cloning document gw_2019...
Opening configuration file Config.xml for skin '\{EN} Export to Gedcom\*  (2019.01.02)'...
Loading Dictionary.xml...
[0.00] Processing template 'Gedcom.js'...
To enable display of parameter settings, untick the box under 'Options' tab of this dialog.
Base skin version 2019.01.02
Error at line 216, position 2 (Code/Utils.js): 'strKey' is undefined
    Microsoft JScript runtime error 800A1391

What could be the reason for this? I added additional data in between.

regards

That error has been lying dormant and undiscovered for a while, as Code/Util.js has not changed for over 4 years.  The script is failing when trying to output an error message, possibly concerning custom markup in your .gno.

I found two issues, a typo in a variable name and missing error text.  The amended skin attached should resolve this issue.

Hi Ron, times are a changing.   I have a same sex couple in my family tree.   Everything looks good until I get to the FAM block in the Gedcom where it only reports one of the individuals:
>>>>>
0 @fam00001@ FAM
1 WIFE @ind00002@
1 CHIL @ind00001@
1 MARR
2 TYPE Civil Marriage
<<<<<

The second FAMS person (ind00003) is not shown.   I tried this with two Females and with two Males just to be sure.

Are you able to update your "{EN} Export to Gedcom" plugin to cater for these situations which I'm sure will become more common place in time?

Thanks

Apologies for late response NiKo, I looked at the 5.5.5 spec when you posted but couldn't see anything I need to change to meet it, I.e. I consider the current output to be fully compatible so only possible change would be to change version in header. Unless anyone thinks differently.....

BlackAdder I shall investigate same sex and polygamous relationships. I suspect my script just looks for the one male and/or female.

Ok I have now looked into the Gedcom spec and it only allows one HUSB tag and/or one WIFE tag under the FAM record, however no gender is implied in the use of either tag. 

I have amended the script so that where there is more than one partner in a family relationship then HUSB and WIFE tags are generated for the first two partners. If the first partner is male then HUSB is used with WIFE for the second irrespective of gender. Similarly if the first partner is female then WIFE is used and HUSB for the second.

If there are more than 2 partners then a warning is generated.

The amended skin is attached, download and unzip into your skins folder to replace the existing Gedcom Export skin folder.

Hi Ron,


I am not a GenoPro user but have been sent a GenoPro-created gedcom file that I wish to append (with the owner's permission) to my comprehensive existing data.  The non-GEDCOM standard approach the GenoPro uses to label sources, and events (like an individual's occupation) appears to make the job very much harder.  

I am sure you will know this yourself, but by way of example for other readers:

My own data shows an individual's occupation in this way:

1 OCCU He had a photographic studio

In contrast, the GenoPro gedcom shows:

1 OCCUPATIONS @occu00048@, @occu00093@

and elsewhere in the file there is a key:

0 @occu00048@ Occupation
1 TITL He had a photographic studio
0 @occu00049@ Occupation
1 TITL ...etc....

Am I best to undertake some serious editing of the GenoPro gedcom file using NotePad++ or similar in order to render it GEDCOM-standard?
Or is there a routine I can use - or send to a GenoPro user to apply for me - to create a GEDCOM-standard gedcom from the file that I have been sent?
The Gedcom file I have been sent begins:  

0 HEAD
1 SOUR GenoPro
2 NAME GenoPro® - Picture Your Family Tree!(TM)
2 VERS 3.0.1.4
2 CORP GenoPro
2 ADDR http://www.genopro.com
1 DATE 27 JAN 2020
1 CHAR UTF-8
1 GEDC
2 VERS 5.5
2 FORM LINAGE-LINKED
etc...

It is 57,000 lines long.

Thanks, Joyaa

Hi Joyaa

If you read the whole of this thread you will see that GenoPro users have two methods of creating a gedcom file.  You have been sent a 'gedcom' produced using GenoPro's built-in File/Export/Export to Gedcom method which as you have discovered does not produce a useful Gedcom file at all.

Ask your sender to produce the gedcom file using the Report skin {en} Export to Gedcom to generate a much more compatible Gedcom file.
