Can anyone recommend a program that can read the Marriage Date and Place from a GEDCOM file produced by Genopro.

I frequently export a GEDCOM of all or part of a Genopro file to distant relatives and they all come back with the same complaint.
"No marriage date or place imported".
I thought at first I had omitted selecting an option to include marriage data in the export but I can't find one.
Am I missing something?

Most of the relatives I send GEDCOM files use either "Personal Ancestor File" or "Legacy".
Neither of these programs can read marriage data from a GEDCOM produced by Genopro.
They seemed a bit surprised that such basic data could not be read - they don't experience the problem with imports from other programs.

Can someone recommend a program that will read marriage data from a Genopro GEDCOM file?

I'm not sure that the problem is with the recieving software.

I checked a GEDCOM which was exported from Legacy and compared it to the one I exported from GenoPro.

This is from Legacy:

0 @F69@ FAM
1 HUSB @I119@
1 WIFE @I240@
1 MARR
2 DATE 12 Dec 2000
2 PLAC Jerusalem, Israel
2 SOUR @S28@
3 PAGE No. 859410
3 QUAY 4
1 CHIL @I827@
1 CHIL @I1433@

And this is from GenoPro:

0 @fam00016@ FAM
1 LABEL m. 12 Dec 2000
1 RELATION Marriage
1 MARRIAGES @marr00012@
1 HUSB @ind00073@
1 WIFE @ind00076@
1 CHIL @ind00077@
1 CHIL @ind00078@

0 @marr00012@ Marriage
1 TYPE Religious
1 DATE 12 DEC 2000

You can see the differences where the Marriage date is. In Legacy it is under the Tag 1 MARR and then 2 DATE and 2 PLAC. While in GenoPro theres only 1 DATE. I guess that Legacy is searching in the Import for the same tags and can't find them.

Most of the GEDCOMs I saw had the pattern the Legacy produces, but, unfortunatelly, the GEDCOM protocol gives the programmer a lot of free space to play with those tags.

I guess that Dan will solve this little problem...
