What is GEDxlate?

GEDxlate quickly and easily translates genealogy data from standard GEDCOM format into MS Access dB (*.mdb), MS Excel Worksheet (*.xls), comma delimited (*.csv), and text file (*.txt) formats. Pick a GEDCOM file to translate; select which fields you want to include in your dB, spreadsheet, csv, or txt file; choose an output format and file name to save the translated data in; and you're there!

A beefed up retail version (with lots more bells and whistles!) is due out shortly.

Version 1.1 speeds up Excel spreadsheet creation, increases spouses from 1 to 3, increases max Individuals from 10k to 600k, and fixes a few minor bugs.

Wow. I have just downloaded your GEDCOM to Excel translator and am stunned with the simplicity and neatness of the process.

It is EXACTLY what I was looking for.

Having used various proprietary family tree programs I keep coming back to Excel as offering the best functionality for sorting, filtering and manipulating data but the time spent entering data is proving a real pain. Your program has just made the importing of data from others a million times easier.
