Hello,
We have a large family largely documented in a GenoMap (GenoPro is really great!).
What I would like to do is to access the information in the .GNO file, fish the complete and actual list of birthdays
(there can be changes like people dying or newborns) and with that information show a reminder with the current birthdays.
What should I do? How is this information saved in the GNO file?
What are the key words to look in the web for?
Thank you for your help.

Try using the Table (Ctrl+T). Hide columns you do not need. Sort names birthdays etc and also Is Dead to bring relevant birthdays together. At this point you might copy the table to a spreadsheet for final arrangement and printing

Thank you for your tip.
I thought on it more like API Programming sort of thing.
The Idea would be to build a Program (VB or Java) that would catch the selected GNO files and extract on call the wanted Birthdays.
Having this saved on an extra place it could let to a mismatch of the data.
E.g. If I correct a Birthday in the family tree and for having my Birthday Reminder fetching the added date I would have to do your suggested procedure all over again.
It's not really want I would like.
Any other suggestions?

A calendar is already programmed into the English Narrative Report. Doesn't this provide what you are looking for?

Any other suggestions? The easiest way would be to use the GenoPro Report Generator and its associated GenoPro SDK. You can use VBScript or Javascript. To give you some ideas look at the file default.htm in the standard Report skin 'Birthday Listings' and also calendarevents.js (which is actually VBScript but generates Javascript :hehe in the English Narrative Report skin. (create a custom skin by clicking the 'New Skin' button to see the files in these skins). Alternatively .gno files are just compressed (gzip) XML files so you can access them directly from VB or Java if you really must do it the hard way!
