If you are just starting out with Brother's Keeper 6 for Windows, there are three ways to get your data into Brother's Keeper 6.

 

1.  You can convert data from version 5 of Brother's Keeper (see File, Convert 5 to 6)

 

2.  You can import Gedcom files from another genealogy program (see File, Gedcom, Import), or 

 

3.  You can pick Edit and type in your data.  

 

If you have BK6 data from a different computer that you saved to a backup disk, you can pick File, Restore data files.

 

If you have previously used any Brother's Keeper 6 version, this program will open your BK6 data files.  If you had BK6 data on this same computer, but now it says 0 names, then pick File, Utilities, Find BK6 database, Search.

 

See pages 2-6 in the printed manual for more help with starting out.  If you can not find what you need in this help file or the printed manual, pick Help, Technical Support.
