When you want to transfer information from a different genealogy program you usually have to export a GEDCOM file from it and then import this file into Legacy. (Once a GEDCOM file has been exported from another program, you can easily import it into Legacy by clicking on File and selecting Import From > Use Import Wizard to help with any import.) Following are instructions on how to export GEDCOM files from several major programs: • Ancestral Quest Export (for family file with.aq extension) 1.

The GEDCOM Export window will open. For Ancestral Quest 3.0 or earlier, select the Standard export type by clicking its radio button. For version 2002 or version 11, choose Personal Ancestral File from the drop-down list. Select version 5.5 and the ANSEL character set.

Check the boxes for Regular Notes, Source Notes, Ctrl Notes, and Submitter information.

If you select this option, you will get all information on everyone selected for export.

If you only want to export some of the individuals in the file, select the Partial option and then click the SELECT button to open the Select Set of Individuals window.

Use this window to specify exactly which individuals you would like to export. When you are satisfied with your selections, click the OK button to export the file.
