Doug,

I downloaded the new version (?) and it would not run. Stated that it
was missing some DLLs after the install. The readme file on your site is
for version 5.1.3, so I'm not sure the version posted was the new one.
Had to uninstall and go back to the 5.1.1 version and it works well.

Rick

I just posted a new version of GedStar-Plus, V5.2. The main difference
is that the Palm application now supports the extended 320x480 screen
resolution that is available on the Tungsten T3, some Sony's, and the
Garmin iQue. However, it also includes a new version of GenBridge that
might fix some of the data import problems.

I doubt that Wholly Genes has gotten the new version up on their site
yet, so existing users can go to www.gedstar.com and get the new version
from the Download pages there.

Another thing is that GedStar-Plus will not handle custom naming
formats. So if you use something other than the standard "Surname",
"Given", etc. that will be a problem. Since 4.0d did not work the same
as 5.11 in this regard, maybe the import from 4.0d to 5.11 has made this
issue show up.
