Another genealogist wants to send me his data, but the GEDCOM file is over 50 Mb and his server won't send anything over 35. He is thinking of cutting it into two parts. The people in his database are not all connected genealogically. I do not know what software he uses. Questions:
(1) How should he divide the files? Maybe "descendants of X" and "not descendants of X" but I don't know how he would do that.
(2) How would I import the files so as to get all the data without duplicates? I read the basics about starting a new family file, importing one file, then importing the other file (with backups of course) but I have never done that.
