can anyone open these? I have an old one that I can't access and now have a Mac so I can't get the software. I tried importing it at ancestry.com and I can't.

Can anyone open it and export it as a gedcom file for me?

thanks

I just checked & my incredibly old version of Family Tree Maker (version 8) allows for opening Family Tree Maker Compressed (FBC) files. If we can figure a way to get the file to me, I could change it for you. File size is going to be an issue though. I just checked & my FTW file is nearly 23MG - I'm not sure how much my accounts will handle.

I would LOVE you! This one is only 604KB. There isn't much and no photos etc.

I think my email will handle it but I can also upload it to my website.

please pm if you can help!

thank you!!

it worked great. I forgot how much I already had. More than 300 people!

I've already located my Great Grandfather and found out when he came to America (1905)

Thanks again for all your help
