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?

If you want to send a gedcom file with marriage information, use Ron's gn2xml2ged.vbs utility. As the name implies it converts the xml file to a gedcom. I have just tested it and my (free) copy of Legacy 6 imported it with marriage location & date.

Only change with 2.19 is that the xml file is zipped into the .gno file and so you have to extract it before conversion. Hopefully GenoPro will put the improved gedcom high on the list of updates. I have often noticed in reviews of genealogical software that a poor gedcom feature attracts bad comments

The original gnoxml2ged.vbs is no longer available as it is not compatible with the latest GenoPro releases. However a much improved successor is packaged in to the current versions of GenoPro. It is now a GenoPro 'Report Generator' skin - Export to Gedcom and is written in JScript instead of VBScript. Just run GenoPro, and on the drop down list of skins under the Tools/Generate Report menu item you will find 'Export to Gedcom'. If you want to view or modify the code click 'Edit Skin' to extract the skin files into your GenoPro skins folder.

Note this skin generates more compatible Gedcom files than GenoPro's own built-in File/Export to Gedcom feature.

I hope to soon complete a JavaScript version of my gnoxml2ged utility that can be run as a report skin within GenoPro.
