Below is an example of what I get when I use the "Import from" in TMJ and
select
"GEDCOM v4.0,v5.5". After the import is done the report screen has:

TOTAL LINES 1368 PEOPLE 43 FAMILIES 5

PROCESSED 52 NAMES 43

HEADERS 1

ERRORS 0

WARNINGS 0


When you choose to look at the log of errors here is the first 106 lines:

Then when you run the file in TMJ and do a "Picklist" all that is there is
"UNKNOWN" for the 43 people that were reported above as "Processed".

Does any of this info help determine my problem?
