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?

And as a follow up to my previous post I found this reference to Genopro on the "Lost Cousins" website.


FAMILY TREE SOFTWARE

There are many family tree programs, some of which can be downloaded free of charge. Two free programs that I have used are Genopro (www.genopro.com), and Personal Ancestral File, which can be downloaded from www.familysearch.org.

Family Historian (www.family-historian.co.uk) is not free, but has received rave reviews - it is also a British program written with local requirements in mind.

All of these programs, even the free ones, will allow you to create family trees on screen, and print them out. All support GEDCOM files (GEDCOM is the standard format for the interchange of genealogical data), although Genopro uses its own file format internally, and does not offer all GEDCOM features.


It appears that I am not the only one to have noticed that.
