lol I am now confused, email has arrived with gedcom on and I cannot even work out how to save that !!! Tried importing my gedcom but I go through the instructions click upload gedcom then I just get a page that says upload gedcom, I know it is me rather than the system I am absolutely useless as anything technical hence my Fleetwoods sitting on my pc rather than where they should be which is on here !!!! anyway I will persist xxhugxx

Re the email.
I presume the gedcom is an attachment on the email - right click on the attachment and you should get an option to save it - save it to your desktop.
Then go to FTM - FILE / OPEN FAMILY FILE
Re uploading gedcom to here.
First thing you need to do is to export your own gedcom file from FTM - have you done that? Do you know where you have saved it - probably easiest place is desktop.
Click on GEDCOM on blue navbar - select search/upload GEDCOM
Scroll down to Type (or select) Filename: - click on BROWSE to the right of the filename box - find your GEDCOM file on your computer - double click it - select UPLOAD FILE
You should then get a page which tells you how many names have been added to database.Elaine
