Brett, It will convert into a "2 SOUR" line followed by as many "3 CONC" lines as are required. Louis

Brett, I don't think I have that in my datetest.ged file that I use for testing dates. Since you've got interested in Behold's date checking again, would you mind doing me a favor. Take a look at my "Sort of a Date" blog post: http://www.beholdgenealogy.com/blog/?p=891 In there you'll find a link to my ...

Subsequent thinking on this makes me now believe that GEDCOM intended that only LINE_VALUEs that are an enumerated list of choices were to be allowed to be mixed upper and lower case.

I'm glad that solved it for you, Willy. Hopefully you'll find Behold useful. More great things coming soon. Louis

There is one other possibility. It could be a bug discovered a few months ago. See: UTF-8 with BOM does not display right. If that is the problem, then until I issue the next version, you'll have to save your UTF-8 file which your listing above shows that you have a Byte Order Mark (BOM), and save it without a ...
