    Trim tree to five generations

    Anyone have any thoughts on I might to do this other than manually? I would like a tree that is only five generations, with spouses of course, and ideally the parents of spouses.
    Thanks,
    David

    I'm confused -- are you talking about a 5-generation PEDIGREE chart or are you talking about a FAMILYFILE that includes only 5 generations? Or something else?

      I want to remove everyone farther than five generations from the source person in a family file that contains up to seven or eight generations. I have found that I can Mark everyone by their generation, and then I can export a Family File or Gedcom.

        Yeah, I think that's the best solution. Export the first five generations to a new familyfile and leave your original intact.
