Completely menu driven, IGI255 will simply scan IGI text files and
create a separate database with the information it finds. The
database is then sorted, viewed, printed or copied as desired. No
printer is required. File contents may be sorted and viewed on
screen. The database files may also be copied and combined to
another file in .DBF or ASCII text form. Four pre-defined sorts
are available or create up to 9 additional at one time. An
excellent filtering option is also available.
The Family Search Program's IGI routine features a "Family" search
as well as a "Marriage" search, including the ability to "filter"
both. Each search may also be set for a "Similar" or an "Exact"
surname search. IGI255 will process IGI text files created in any
FSP search and/or filter combination.
Naturally a text file consisting of information from both types of
searches would gather all available possibilities for a given
surname. Unfortunately this creates an extremely large amount of
duplicate entries in the text file. IGI255 cures this "problem"
rather easily by simply removing the duplicates, automatically.
PLEASE NOTE: When downloading IGI information to be processed with
IGI255, remember: GEDCOM's produced by the FSP are NOT handled by
IGI255. You MUST use it's ASCII text file feature. There is a
shareware program available by the name of GIPSI which will
process GEDCOM type files for you. Also NOTE: The .DBF files
created by GIPSI are NOT compatible with IGI255.
