This file was always a FTW file. If I try to export to GEDCOM I still get that error message.

Bob,


Please run this Utility from any Individual's Family Page:

CTRL+ALT+SHFT+LeftArrow

Please go to this website:

http://pastftm.custhelp.com/

Enter 1396 into the "Keyword Search" box and read that Knowledge Base Article. It should help you with this Error Message, and describe how to use the LOG file.

See uf that helps,

Russ

Bob,

When was the last time you Backed up your Family File? At this point, I would do a Restore from Back Up, from your most recent Back Up. (FBC file)

Bob,

You might want to go back a couple of back ups to see if you can locate an undamaged file. Sounds like you have had this issue for a while.
