Gedcom Builder

Gedcom Builder is a tool which enables the creation of standard Gedcom files from Microsoft® Excel spreadsheets.

From within the application a specially formatted spreadsheet can be created, ready to populate with information targetted for lineage linked family software or online family trees. This approach is a huge advantage over manually having to enter each entry in a lineage linked family software package or onto an online family tree as the full functionality of a spreadsheet is available for structuring the information as required.

All the basic elements encompassing births, baptisms, deaths, burials and marriages are addressed within Gedcom Builder, and the linking of parents and spouses to individuals is as simple as placing an identifier  against an individual.

In addition, Sources, citations and notes can be recorded.

Gedcom builder is available in 2 versions; 

  • Standard Edition -
