2Mb maximum. I just don't have a gedcom that small.
I tried it with a tree containing over 2,500 people & the GEDCOM came in at 650Kb.
Over 2Mb. you must be looking at 9-10,000 at least !

Chris, does your database not have an option to export to GEDCOM without notes?

Seems not.

But when I import it to Anc*** they don't import the notes. So I'll try exporting one from there & see how it goes!

Inexplicable. It seems Anc*** does import the notes with the gedcom - but doesn't display them! The re-exported file was still over 2Mb - the notes were still on it! Go figure.

No, I'm not going to go through my gedcom deleting all the notes. Takes too long, and one false move and you invalidate it.

After recommending this online GEDCOM viewer I found several bugs.  I reported them, and got the following reply from the developer.  I have tested it and confirmed to him that he has fixed them.
