Lockups upon importng gedcoms with notes - Forum post by lkessler in Report a Problem - 18 Jul 2006
Thanks, Mala, for reporting this. Yes, I do want to fix it. I usually have to be able to reproduce the error myself so that I can trace where it is happening and fix it. The easiest way for me to do this is if I had a copy of the GEDCOM you used that produced the error. If you wouldn't mind sending it to me, my ...

I just today downloaded Behold Version 98.5 and after looking over the Quick Start and playing around with the Clinton.GED, I downloaded one of my GED files. While browsing through the various features, the file stopped responding. I have no idea why this happened, however, the Microsoft troubleshooting service ...

Louis,Sorry, the original files that I had the problem with have already been changed and I can't recreate the lockup as Behold handles the other files with the @ symbols with no problem. Maybe, it was a glitch in my computer at the time and it corrected itself on the next restart.I can recreate the other ...

Max:It should not matter whether that particular line has the @ symbols or not. That line is a continuation of a text comment and Behold should handle it. I put that exact code with the @ symbols into a simple test program and I couldn't get Behold to fail. I tried several earlier versions of Behold as well but ...

I've run into a minor problem with loading gedcoms that include certain gedcom key symbols in a note field. If things like @ or / are included in a NOTE, Behold locks up. Eliminating those symbols from the NOTE in the gedcom solves the problem for me, but others may not know how.I've also run into another ...

I love this so far. - Forum post by lkessler in General Discussion - 2 Jun 2006
Actually, redoing it sometimes takes less time. Doing it the first time often has a general goal, but you don't know the problems along the way until you encounter them, and then your path has to keep shifting a bit. This can sometimes take a very long time, e.g. my month and a half foray with my data structure ...

"They seem to be a remarkable mixture of sophisticated and antiquated thinking and programming."That's a great way to say it. They are of course the geniuses behind the invention of GEDCOM, yet they haven't updated it in, what, 10 years?Louis
